Takata recall, I am concerned because I have not had any resolve from the dealer yet about this very dangerous problem. The letter from the dealer simply advised not to let passengers ride in the front seat until they resolved the problem. Seriously?

Tamara inflates what is a reasonable amount of time to expect a remedy for this recall. Am I supposed to ride around indefinitely without allowing anyone to sit in my passenger seat? Or be afraid that if I get into an accident my passenger airbag may kill me. When sis this going to have a resolution? It has been five months.

Takata recall I received notice of recall regarding the takata air bag in my 2012 scion xb. I went to the local dealer where I purchased the vehicle and was told replacement parts would not be available until september 2017, at the earliest. I then inquired about being provided with a rental car and I was told there is a month long waiting list for a rental from them. I asked if they would pick up the cost for a rental car from an outside rental company and they said that I would have to deal directly with toyota regarding my request. This is an entirely unacceptable situation, not to mention extremely dangerous. I am driving around in a car that has a known, potentially fatal flaw, and the best suggestion toyota can provide is " don't have a passenger in the front passenger side of your car". I have to have my vehicle available to take people with me at all times. I do not have another vehicle in my household to drive. I demand toyota contact me regarding providing a rental vehicle immediately. It seems this is the least toyota can do for vehicle owners who are not at fault in any way regarding this matter. Toyota has known for years that they were purchasing and installing defective devices in many vehicles, now they must step up to the plate and make it right for consumers. Additionally, this recall has severely effected the resale value of my vehicle. I am reluctant to contact an attorney to assist in pursuit of my demand for a free rental until my car has been satisfactorily repaired, but if toyota does not do the right thing, then that will be my next step

Takata inflators - we received a mailed notice from toyota motor sales, USA, inc. On feb. 10, 2017 with no further correspondence since that time. Is the federal safety agency applying any pressure on toyota to provide the dealers with the required parts needed to accomplish the repairs?

Takata recall no remedy for unsafe air-bag more than 6 months after the recall. I transport disabled individuals using the scion xb and not being able to have nyone sit in the front passenger seat makes it difficult to assess and communicate with clients.

I was t-boned on march 6th, 2013 on the driver's side. I was in a scion xb and the person who hit me was in a chevy silverado. The impact was estimated at 45 MPH and the door was jammed shut. No air bags deployed. The curtain airbag should have which would have lessened the impact. As a result, the driver (myself) sustained a broken collar bone, broken rib, and punctured lung among various bruising and passed out for an unknown amount of time. After several calls to scion and a visit to the toyota dealership where it was purchased we did not hear anything from the car manufacturer until a month later. The inspectors at toyota called to find out where the car was located and if they would be able to inspect it. Because the jaws of life were used to pry the door open, it split the door enough to where you could see where the sensor for the airbag did not deploy. I'm sure the inspector will see the same thing. I have not heard anything back concerning this investigation. I have pictures showing the car after it was hit and no airbags were deployed. The driver's side curtain airbag should have deployed based on the schematic found in the owner's manual and where the car was struck by the truck.
