Toyota issued a recall based upon a front passenger airbag issue. We had an appointment to fix the recall but Toyota says they are prohibited from doing the work. They have the part in stock. They do not have anyone on a waiting list. I want our car fixed. We have had to rearrange a trip taken in early September because of the recall and inability to have it fixed. We are following your recommendation that we do not use the front seat. We have been inconvenienced on a daily basis because we can not Transport 7 people as we customarily do for school purposes. We have now had the additional burden and cost to rearrange two long distant trips at the end of this year because we can not use the car to carry people as it was designed. I understand there must be alot of cars to fix. I utilize mine in the manner of transporting 7 or a family of 4 with dogs and luggage. I do not understand why the recall can not be taken care of in an expeditious manner if the part is in stock and no one else is waiting for such a recall repair. Please explain why a loyal customer who purchased the vehicle for its designed purpose can not get your (problem) recall on the vehicle fixed immediately when parts are not only available but in stock at our local dealer? I want the full use of my vehicle. I do not want to be inconvenienced further. Toyota has always gone the extra mile and earned our loyalty but if this is making no sense and causing grief and frustration.

I received a letter from Toyota 2 weeks ago indicating the safety recall with the front passenger air bag inflators which were incorrectly manufactured and have the potential to fatally injure the passenger in the event they are deployed in an accident. To date, huntington Toyota of long island has not received the necessary parts to complete the repair for the recall and they have no idea when they will have the parts. I purchased an SUV because I obviously had a need for more seats and room. I use my truck daily transporting my children and their friends to various functions, otherwise I would have gotten a smaller vehicle. So Toyota's suggestion to vehicle owners to not use the passenger seat, is unacceptable. I am requesting that the necessary parts for this airbag be immediately sent to huntington Toyota for my vehicle. I have 3 Toyota vehicles and have been a long time customer, but if this matter is not rectified to my satisfaction, I will no longer consider Toyota vehicles for future purchase.

Have received at least two recall letters from Toyota advising that this vehicle has been included in takata air bag recall, however, because it is not in one of the high humidity areas, Toyota will not replace the air bag. The recall had affected Toyota Sequoia model year 2002 to 2007, my model year is 2005. Now that the NHTSA has forced the auto makers to be realistic; Toyota magically redefines the Toyota Sequoia model years as only 2002 and 2003 Toyota Sequoia. I believe this to be very underhanded. If I had moved to gulf coast area with my 2005 Sequoia, then my vehicle would be repaired with a new air bag module; because I live in a non-gulf coast area, the very same vehicle is not involved in a nationwide recall. Very disingenuous!! I was under the impression that NHTSA actions were to force the automakers to expand the recall of these takata airbags, not narrowly Focus the recall to two model years from six model years. I imagine that is considerable initial savings for Toyota. I believe NHTSA should investigate how several model years get removed from nationwide recall list, appears that other manufacturers are actually expanding their takata air bag recall to cover a wider range of vehicles and making it nationwide.
I received a recall notice for the airbag as part of the large recall notice. I took the truck in for a replacement part and the dealer did not have the part at the time. It has been 2 months and still no part or any idea when one will be available. I now have a vehicle that is limited in its use and can not sell, due to the liability of the new owner not following the recommendation to not use the passenger seat. Seems like if a recall is initiated there should be a timely resolution.

This has been going on since April 2010, its now November 2010 with no resolution. My 2005 Toyota Sequoia trac off, vsc trac, check engine lights and ABS lights keep coming on. Brought into the dealer three times while the lights were on so the dealer could put it on the computer. No codes show up. I am told that it's not covered even though we have the Toyota certified bumper to bumper warranty. They recalled the 2003 for the same problem. They need to do the same for the 05. Repair cost for this is $2200.
