Takata recall I have been waiting for about 2 years for the work to be done to my Toyota. Claremont Toyota tell me that they donot have parts. I have talked to them on the phone and in person numerous times.
Toyota issued a recall for my vehicle for the air bag inflator on June 16, 2015, and recommended that I not operate the vehicle with an occupant in the front passenger seat. I have since had to wait nearly an entire year before the parts for the recall were available in my area; I was only notified in may of 2016 that the parts are available in my area. In other words, I was supposed to avoid having a passenger in my front seat for almost a whole year. This by far exceeds a reasonable timeframe for repair, and I hope that there will be repercussions for this kind of failure.

Takata recall - last summer, we received a safety recall notice from Toyota regarding the front passenger airbag for our 2006 Corolla. We made an appointment at a local dealer (boch Toyota South in North attleboro, MA) and brought the car in on August 13, 2015. They confirmed that the car was included in the recall and needed the airbag replaced, but told us the part was on back order. It is now over 8 months later. We keep getting phone calls and mailings from Toyota telling us how important it is to have this safety recall work completed, yet the dealership still does not have the part. Today both the local dealership and the Toyota representative at the phone number listed on the most recent safety recall mailing confirmed that the part was still on back order. We asked the Toyota representative why they continued to leave phone messages and send us mailings regarding having the work done if the part was not available and they said it was a legal obligation. I am submitting this complaint because I believe the dealer or Toyota is unable to remedy the defect within a reasonable time, especially when the safety recall notice states "until the remedy is performed, the front passenger seat should not be occupied." 8 months and counting with no estimate for when the part may be available is unacceptable.

Quite some time ago, I received a letter stating that Toyota would take care of this problem, since it was serious. I have not been contacted since for an update or have I been given a date to correct the problem.
I was notified by the dealership that a recall for passenger side airbags was currently in place. When I tried to make an appointment, they told me it would be a 4-6 month wait! that's a long time to be driving an unsafe vehicle or are they discriminating against an older model Toyota" anything I can do to speed this up"

Takata recall: The dealership and others I contacted have been unable to tell me when they will have the parts to complete the repair of the recall. So while it is great that NHTSA has helped to get to the stage of a recall, if the repairs cannot be completed, it is not a good thing. Can you help me with this problem" (in other words, help me find a place to get the repair or tell me who to contact at Toyota") I am upset about this.

Takata recall. Received safety recall notification from Toyota. Local dealer estimated 4 to 10 weeks wait time for remediation. Notice clearly says that '' until remedy is performed, we recommend that you do not operate the vehicle with an occupant in front passenger seat". so I can't operate with passenger. Its really a big issue for me as my wife needs to come to office in the same car with me.it's causing great trouble for our work and also for week end routines/trips. I have requested dealer several times mentioning above impact however there is no positive response. Rather they are claiming it an issue where they are not responsible. My current situation is that I am taking paid taxi services for drop and pick up from offices. It's costing around $100 dollars daily since 3/30/2016.any immediate resolution/remedy will help
