TAKATA RECALL MY COMPLAINT IS THERE IS NO DATE AS TO WHEN THE DEFECT REGARDING THE TAKATA AIRBAGS WILL BE COMPLETED. THE RECOMMENDED RESOLUTION FROM TOYOTA IS TO NOT HAVE ANY ONE RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS A HUGE INCONVENIENCE. IS RIDICULOUS TO EXPECT MY FAMILY TO CONTINUE TO DO THIS FOR SOME UNDETERMINED AMOUNT OF TIME. THERE MUST BE SOMETHING ELSE DONE NOW SO I CAN CONTINUE TO USE MY VEHICLE DRIVING MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS AS I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DO WITHOUT FEAR OF POSSIBLE INJURY OR DEATH FROM THE AIRBAGS.

THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM TOYOTA HAD BEEN RECEIVED IN MAY OF 2016. IT STATED THAT RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED FOR TAKATA FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR. IT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED DO NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE WITH AN OCCUPANT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT DUE TO DANGER OF INFLATOR RUPTURE DURING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THIS RUPTURE CAN HAPPENED ANY TIME DUE TO DEGRADATION OF THE PROPELLANT IN THESE INFLATORS AFTER PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO HIGH HUMIDITY AND FLUCTUATING TEMPERATURES. SEVEN MONTHS LATER THERE STILL NO REMEDY HAD BEEN ISSUED. I MADE TWO PHONE CALLS TO TOYOTA CUSTOMER CENTER. FIRST TIME IN OCTOBER 2016 AND SECOND IN JANUARY 2017 AND STILL DID NOT GET ANY REASONABLE ANSWERS ON WHEN THIS RECALL WOULD BE FIXED FOR OUR VEHICLE. OUR FAMILY JUST AS MANY OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING EXTREME INCONVENIENCE DUE TO THIS RECALL AND TOYOTA HAS NOT SHOWED ANY EMPATHY AND/OR ABILITY OF TRYING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. IT TAKES A VERY LONG AND UNREASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME.

I WAS SENT A LETTER SAYING I SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT OF MY CAR. THIS MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR MY FAMILY TO USE THE VEHICLE.
