Heard news report of toyota airbag recall back in 2013. Took car to dealership and had that issue resolved. Then in june 2014, another recall discussed on tv news and received letter in the mail stating my front passenger airbag inflator was not replaced and replacement is required. However, the letter further states that there is "no remedy available" and it further states that you should not use your vehicle if at all possible. This is an outrageous statement on the part of toyota. As I am the only caregiver to my elderly mother (89 yrs old), it is imperative that I have a safe operating vehicle to take her to oncologists, radiology appointments, dental appointments and primary care check-ups on a weekly basis. My vehicle needs to be repaired before a tragedy occurs with a fatality ending. This is not acceptable and toyota will and should be held responsible to get these repairs done now verses later. To say there is "no remedy available" is like telling a victim that there is no way to find the criminal because they lack the proper equipment in the lab to solve the crime!

I believed my airbag was fixed. I took my toyota corolla in to the dealership in november. They advised me they could fix my airbag. They called me to pick it up and stated it was fixed. However I got a new safety recall in the mail saying my corolla has a airbag recall. I called the toyota company as stated on the form and the customer service lady stated that there is another recall and the first fix was not a fix. I do not understand. Have I been driving around in my car with the passenger seat airbag not fixed when I was told it was fixed. This is not safe. That means for 3 months I have been driving around with an unsafe airbag that could kill me or my passenger. Toyota is saying that they have no parts and no fix at this time. But legally they are to notify me. This is very stressful and just plain wrong. It's not safe and they are putting my life and family in jeopardy. I do not believe they are taking this seriously or working fast enough with a solution. She kept telling me that they are most concerned with the gulf states. Well I live a hour and a half from the gulf. Secondly the test results show they are not sure if humidity plays a part in the airbag issue. I believe toyota should be offering a safe solution to the problem or offering us rental cars.
I have been receiving recall letters since 2011 or so. I call toyota to have this issue taken care of every 6 months and they tell me that the parts needed to fix my recall have not been manufactured yet. The last time I called toyota in mamaroneck,ny,they actually gave me an appointment but when I got there they could not help me. A total waste of time. What are they waiting for?? I don't feel safe driving a car which air bags are not properly installed.
