Takata recall - this recall came out in may of 2016 and, to date Feb. 2017, there still has been no resolution. Toyota's written recommendation was to not let anyone ride in the front seat of the vehicle which is unrealistic. It should not take this long to arrive at a solution. If a whole new air bag system needs to be installed, then that is what needs to be done asap.

Takata recall - local atlanta Toyota dealers are not offering use of a comparable vehicle at no charge until the replacement airbag is available, even though the recall involves a potential life-threatening hazard for the front passenger. It is necessary for me to have use of a vehicle with large cargo space and towing capability. What can be done to get Toyota to provide me with a 4runner or comparable vehicle until the defective airbag is replaced?

Takata recall it's taking too long to remedy this situation. It's been 5 months since I got the letter saying that the airbags are being recalled, and 8 months since the actual recall the letter states that "until the remedy becomes available, we recommend that you do not operate the vehicle with an occupant in the front passenger seat." No front passenger!? additionally, after complaining to Toyota hq, I got a call saying to make an appointment with my local dealer, who then said that the parts are not yet available.

Takata recall. This recall occurred last may and I just today received notice, 10 Jan 2017. There is still no remedy according to the notice. So my car does not meet safety standards that I've been driving my family around in and I have to just hope we don't have an accident?

"takata recall" - received notice of the recall for my vehicle in July of 2016 stating that I would be notified when a solution to fix the problem was available. It is now January of 2017 and I have yet to be notified of a possible repair date. The recall states that my vehicle is unsafe for someone to ride in the front passenger seat of my vehicle. This is unacceptable as this is my families primary travel vehicle. I believe that my vehicle should have been repaired by now or that my vehicle should be replaced until the option to be repaired is available.

Takata recall the problem with the air bags has not been resolved and it has been since May 2016. It is unreasonable that no solution has been found in this time period and I have been unable to use the front passenger seat for 6 months. I believe a rental car should be provided until the air bags have been corrected.
