Takata recall: NHTSA recall no 16V-340. We were notified of an issue with the passenger air bag on our 2007 ES 350 in May 2016. Recall letter indicated that car should not be driven with anyone occupying the passenger seat until air bag. Is replaced. Its has been 10 months since receiving this notice and a replacement air bag is still not available. This amount of time to fix the problem is not reasonable and we should be compensated. Not sure I would even be able to sell the vehicle with this issue not resolved. Angry owner.

Takata recall since the car is not useable for the purpose for which it was purchased (a 5-passenger car), I am asking for compensation from Lexus or takata, as there is no indication that the repair can be made in any time frame. It could be years before the repair is made, thereby meaning that we would have to purchase a new vehicle. Lexus or takata should provide monetary compensation to make up for this. It is unacceptable that we cannot use the vehicle, and the recall notice was completely useless, basically saying "don't use your car" (for which we paid tens of thousands of dollars). It is calling it an "inconvenience" which is not accurate. The issue of the air bags has been known for a couple of years and Lexus had the opportunity to work on a remedy. I am hoping that NHTSA can assist in this matter. Thank you.

Takata recall. Lexus issued a recall notice in May 2016 and still has no remedy available. This is severely impacting my ability to use my vehicle, which is my primary family car. I firmly believe that Lexus/Toyota is failing in its duty to promptly correct this serious problem. Blaming takata or waiting for takata to provide a solution is not enough. I'm so frustrated with Lexus that I have decided to never again buy another Lexus.
