Takata recall: I received my only notification from Toyota the safety recall notice in late June early July 2015 regarding the inflator problem with my vehicle. From my understanding, the issue is caused by intrusion of moisture into the inflator system of the passenger airbag that causes the inflator to explode if the airbag is deployed. This explosion has been linked to many cases of serious injury and/or death. The notice informed me I would receive another notification when parts were available in my area to have the replacement conducted. It is now February 20, 2016 and in 8 months I have not received any more information regarding this serious life threatening issue. From the information I have found online, the parts should have started to be available in Oregon in September 2015, that was 5 months ago and I have yet to hear any information on when I can expect this issue to be resolved. In the notice it asked to not have anyone sit in the passenger seat of the vehicle until repairs can be made. I understand this is a safety precaution, however, after 8 months and counting it has become quite an inconvenience. Furthermore, I live in portland, or and it is very humid/moist in this region of the country. This causes even more concern to me that this issue is not being resolved in a time sensitive manner. My complaint is that I have not received timely notice or information regarding when parts would be available in my region of the country and after 8 months, I am requesting someone contact me with more information that can help me resolve this serious problem with my vehicle in the very near future. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Takata recall I'm just concerned at how long this recall is taking. For such a serious safety hazard, it's been over 6 months since I received my initial recall notice and I have not heard anything else about it since. I'm expecting a child in a few months and I can't be driving around in a vehicle that has such a glaring safety problem. The recalls need to be fixed faster and more efficiently.

Takata recall - I purchased the car in July 2015 and was informed that there was a recall on the takata inflator for my car. I took it to daytona Toyota in daytona beach, Florida to have another recall on the car remedied. They told me they would be calling me when they had the inflator module part in for my car. Over the next several months they called me when the part came in and each time I was sent home because it turns out they did not have the part after all. I filed a complaint on their facebook page and the customer service manager contacted me via the telephone. He told me that there was no such part or recall for my car. I trusted him, removed the complaint and have been driving my vehicle ever since. However, I am seriously concerned he lied to me just to get me to delete my complaint. I am now afraid for my safety and unsure if there is truly a recall on my car. I have a Toyota Corolla S 2005. Dealer reference id: Dsf and NHTSA recall id: 15V285

Takata recall it has been almost six months and I have not recieved notification of available replacement parts for the air bag in my 2005 Toyota Corolla. My family relies on the use of this car and not being able to use the passenger seat is a big inconvienience. When can I expect a replacement part to be available so a repair of the faulty air bag can take place? I expect a resolution for this issue soon thank you for your time, [xxx] 'information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'
