I filed a claim for the auto airbag settlement in 2017. I never received any response and when I contacted Toyota they stated bob baker does not exist anymore. No one has an answer. Thank you, amparo perez-flynn
It was new year's eve 12/31/2018 it was raining and I was going home after pick up dinner for my family and I was coming to a stop sign and I pressed on my brakes and it didn't catch on and I let off of it and pressed on it again. I still felt like I was sliding and that when I pressed on it even harder and I kept sliding. I turned my wheel so I wouldn't hit straight to the trees and the ditch but once I turned the wheel I felt the car being pushed like the wind blew on it and next thing I feel the car was hit and rolling down the ditch and the airbags didn't deploy. It happened so fast I thought we were died cause it was my 6 months old daughter and I. the first day after the accident my neck was hurting so bad that it hurt for me to swallow and my chest, shoulders, and back hurts. My daughter and I went to urgent care on 1/2/2019 cause the doctors office were closed and the emergency room was full of people the next day cause it was a holiday I wish I had went with the ambulance or went that same day cause I was in so pain after. We didn't get visible scars my daughter was strapped in her car seat and I had my seatbelt on cause I always make sure I have my seatbelt on every time I'm in a car I can feel my bruises I couldn't get a mri cause I was given a pregnancy test and it came up positive but I did get a X-ray on my neck. All I can take for pain is tylenol 1 pill every 6 hours or 2 pills every 12 hours. I have to follow up with my daughter doctor next week to see if everything stays normal from her urgent care check up. I'm trying to figure out what happened with my car cause I wasn't going that fast and the car hitting so hard I can't understand why the airbags didn't deploy? didn't the sensors didn't work or go off. If Y'all can please inform me of why the airbags didn't deploy please message me at my email [xxx] or [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
Takata recall: Upon receiving the recall letter from Toyota approximately 6 weeks ago I immediately contacted one of the 2 local dealers (precision Toyota) and arranged to have the parts ordered. After approximately 7 to 10 days I was notified that the parts had arrived and I attempted to schedule an appointment for repair but the dealer is unwilling to give me a ride home so I can use a borrowed vehicle to go to work. Yesterday I was advised by a rep from precision Toyota that they again would not be able to give me a ride home on their shuttle but would arrange for an uber to return me home. Upon arrival this morning at precision Toyota I was advised that they in fact would not arrange for a ride to my home because of where I live (approximately 19 miles from the dealer). I work and cannot afford to take a day off from work especially for something that is not my fault!!! Toyota is failing at this recall!

"takata recall" this recall has been known since May 23, 2016 yet we only received a recall notice at the beginning of January 2017, and no fix is available for the takata air bag inflators on our vehicle. (making this vehicle dangerous far worse then any vehicle without a air bag system). We purchased this vehicle for its safety, but it is not safe. And Toyota has no fix for the issue.. at this time I feel considering this has been know for a long time and nothing has been done to correct the dangers associated with the vehicle, the manufacture should either correct the faulty inflators, provide safe replacement vehicles, or out right purchase the vehicles back from the owners for the owners actual purchase cost. As of January 20th 2017 no notice to correct this potentially deadly situation has been received.
The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Yaris. While the front passenger seat was occupied, the front passenger air bag was deactivated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the air bag sensor failed due to the weight in the passenger seat being too heavy. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 35,000.

Takata recall I wish to complain about takata and Toyota about their mutual handling of the recall. This summer I received a notice from Toyota recommending keeping the front passenger seat unoccupied due to the front passenger airbag while they seek a "remedy". from what reading I have done, the remedy consists of replacing the defective technology from takata with a newer version of the same defective technology, thus prolonging the danger. This is just a ploy to buy time and it is criminal. As the airbag recall expands to other makes and models, will other airbags in my vehicle be affected as well? so now I and many thousands/ millions of other drivers must drive vehicles that could explode on us at any given time and that will be difficult, if not impossible, to sell. We should be compensated and Toyota and takata must be held accountable.

Toyota recall: Notice states: "do not operate the vehicle with and occupant in front passenger seat." Limits usefulness of vehicle. As the three point seat harness is the primary passenger restraint and the airbag is secondary, I would like to disable the front passenger airbag. Please advise.
