Takata recall it is unacceptable that there is currently no reasonable time frame for the takata recall to be remedied. It is unreasonable to expect no person to occupy the passenger seat in a 4 person vehicle. This requires a family of 4 to either drive 2 cars and waste money on gas or put themselves at risk by sitting in the passenger seat despite the danger. I am told that a solution is still approximately 9 months away. I have asked Toyota to disable the airbag sensor in the seat until the remedy is available and they have refused for liability reasons. There was a time when we didn't have airbags and just used seat belts. Why can't we treat this as such. It is not reasonable to expect families to restrain from using 1/4 of their car for potentially an entire year. There's not the option to sell the car because fair market value will not be obtained with such a recall. In short, I want my passenger airbag disabled until a remedy can be provided. This is the least Toyota can do.

I received a recall notice months/years ago about the death hazard with these airbags and now I am seeing all over the news that this should have been handled a long time ago and it is recommended that I get it fixed asap, but Toyota says they don't have a fix for it yet. Unacceptable!

Takata recall I have been fortunate enough not to have an actual "incident", but I am still going to file the complaint on the length of time this recall on the airbag is taking to resolve. I cannot have a passenger due to this and it is extremely inconvenient. I am a single mother and need my vehicle to be in top shape for me and my child. No remedy for 10 months is ridiculous.

Taking to long to fix problem with recall. I drive my grandkids around and due to the recalli am unable to take them anywhere, in fear of my granddaughter being killed by metal from an air bag.
Takata recall NHTSA recall no. 16V-340 & 17V-006. Why does Toyota issue an interim recall notice with no remedy available? I have a 5 passenger car that is now a 4 passenger car (really a 2 passenger car now B/C the back seat is so small) and I cannot carry my whole family in the car. This car no longer meets my requirements because of this recall and the inability to use the front seat. Why can't Toyota expedite the fix and/or disable the passenger airbag in the meantime" also, if my passenger airbag is made by takata and is affected by the recall, who is to say that my driver's side airbag is any safer? is the driver side airbag made by takata as well? has any investigation been done into the drivers's side airbag to clear it for use? what about the side curtain airbags? why would one side be safe to use and the other not be? can I safety operate my vehicle and depend on my airbag to save me in the event of a crash and not kill me instead? I'm not convinced. There are too many questions and virtually no answers in the recall notice. I expect a prompt, full, and complete remedy of this problem in a timely manner., or Toyota is required by law to buy back, replace my vehicle, or offer me a rental for the duration of this recall. It has been over two weeks since I received the interim recall notice, and I expect to hear a response on availability of a fix more promptly than this. This is unacceptable!! Toyota has known about this issue for over 2 years with their airbags now and only now am I receiving a notice that my vehicle is affected. What am I to do? sit here and wait another 2 years for a fix? how long will it be"
