Kindly, my car is Toyota Corolla 2012, I purchased it from saudi arabia, and then I exported it to my mother country ( egypt ). it is manufactured to arab gulf specifications and I am the first owner, I am writing to complain about my car dashboard. Three months ago, I found that the dashboard began to melt and became sticky by the heat of the sun, in addition to; it creates an unsafe glare on the windshield while driving. After searching for a solution to the problem, I found that many costumers have faced the same problem and was solved by Toyota customer satisfaction. Toyota dealership in egypt "Toyota egypt" refused to replace the melting dashboard with a new one because my car is no longer under warranty, but regardless of my car's age, is the dashboard supposed to melt ! therefore, I want to know your response regarding this problem. Knowing that, I do not ever put any materials on the dashboard. Please find the attached photos. Thank you for your kind understanding
The contact owns a 2012 Toyota Corolla. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 13V014000 (air bags, seats). The contact stated that the air bag warning light illuminated and remained illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the auto nation dealer located at 4050 veston rd, davie, fl 33331, (954)659-1873, where the recall repair was performed however, the air bag warning light remained illuminated. The contact was concerned because his son drove the vehicle occasionally. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact back to the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
My airbag was recalled I got it fixed and now the airbag light is on. I took it back it back to the dealer and they said it has nothing to do with the work they did. I have had this car for 3 years with no lights on and now, after I get the recall fixed, a light comes on and its not related?
I brought the vehicle in for a recall repair and it was returned damaged with a piece hanging out. The dealer admitted that they knew there was damage and opted not to tell me. I called corporate Toyota and told them I was concerned the car was not safe to drive because the recall repair was not completed properly and was advised I would need to pay to have it inspected by another dealer and have the recall properly repaired, or I can take it back to the dealer that did not initially perform the repair correctly. I have no confidence that the car is safe to drive since the visible components were not installed properly. The dealer I went to has proven incapable of properly performing this repair. In summary, the recall repair was not properly performed and corporate Toyota advised that I would need to pay for the repair if I take it to a reputable dealer.

Takata recall I was never notified of the recall. I was in an accident and the air bag hit my left arm when it deployed. I found out about the recall after my insurance company completed an evualation on my Toyota carolla. With it not being fixed it may have decreased the value of my car.
Air bag light came on dashboard as well as passenger seat belt light continuously beeping to buckle seat belt. Dealer was unable to identify the problem. They replaced multiple parts and issue came back after 4 months. Dealer now is claiming that air bag inflator is the issue. Recalled parts were replaced previously. Dealer does not seem to be 100% certain what the issue is and is replacing parts at customer's expense.

I'm having an issue with the airbag system. There are multiple error codes and the dealership can't figure it out. They think it's the airbag module. Toyota has had multiple issues with the airbag system not just the takata. But this issue it disables all the airbags and beeps to buckle your seatbelt. There seems to be a common issue so I'd like you to look into it.
Talara recall I call to make and appointment about a month ago and they tell me to call me back with the day to bring the car to Toyota I'm still waiting on a call they never make and appointment and never call me please I need to repair my car
Takata recall took car in to Toyota dealer for new airbag and waited 1/2 day for airbag to be installed. Was told it was completed but I noticed the door still had hollow sound when I closed it after returning home. Checked online with VIN# and it said recall incomplete. Though I filled out survey I received in email regarding servicing of car, it kept bumping me off at the end of the filled out online form. Today I got an email from the rep who did paperwork at Toyota dealership asking me to complete survey. Thats when I decided to check VIN and found it hadn't been serviced at all!!!
Takata recall called dealer repeatedly. Was told there are "no replacement bags available at this time" could take 2 more years perhaps.what do we do now >

Takata recall. I want to know if and when my airbag inflator will be recalled. I live in New Jersey, and it gets pretty hot and humid here in the summer, and cool and humid in the winter. The information provided by NHTSA and the press suggests I face the risk of a faulty exploding airbag. It seems that the recall is gambling with the odds that there is less chance of an explosion outside pr, fl, the gulf states, nc and ca. I do not like facing this risk and think NHTSA should order takata and Toyota to replace my airbag inflator with safe equipment. Please let me know what you will do to provide me and all the other car owners facing this risk with a remedy. This risk is, after all, the result of intentional violations by takata and others. I just learned of this risk today in the press. Thank you.
I was instructed not to use my front passenger seat for the past two years because of a faulty airbag tha might kill my kids. So far nothing. When can I get this problem fixed, when can I get replacement airbags, more than 2 years wait.
