Takata recall. I am the owner of this vehicle and have received two recalls/remedy notices. NHTSA recall no. 16V-340 & 17V-006. I have visited in person and phoned many Toyota dealerships in my area and surrounding areas to get repairs completed. All dealerships tell me they do not have the airbag inflator in stock and do not know when they receive any. I am deeply concerned about my safety driving this vehicle as well as any passengers. Please help.

Takata recall: I was notified of the recall in June of 2016. The temporary remedy was to not allow any passengers to ride in the front passenger seat until the airbag had been replaced. I learned of the availability of the replacement parts in June of 2017 when I called for a third time to pursue the remedy. It was reported that the parts had become available in may of 2017, and I was notified of the remedy by Toyota in July of 2017. A full calendar year is an unacceptable delay for a safety recall, and expecting Toyota owners to not use their front passenger seats for a year is ridiculous. I am aware of other car companies that sent a similar recall notice and offered the remedy within two weeks. I have now had the service completed.
Takata recall my vehicle was recalled May 24,2016 at that time it was advised that we not use the front passenger seat as a safety precaution it took over a year to get the parts to repair the vehicle. We had not been able to utilize the front passenger seat for over a year so when we traveled with more than 3 people in the car we had to take another vehicle. I eventually got my grandchildren for the summer and on then was I told I could get a loaner vehicle so in may of 2017 I was provided a loaner vehicle and my parts came in 2 weeks later. That is not acceptable it was an inconvenience and I feel there should be compensation for that.
