Takata recall - I took my car to make the labor because the takata recall and few month later the light of the air bag in the front panel is on (red). Then I take my other car (the same model and year except for the color) and happen the same thing. Today both cars have the airbag light on. No body have found why, but it was after the labor because of the recall of the airbags. I dont remember right now the specific date.

Takata recall: the passenger airbag was replaced under a recall several years ago. The driver's airbag warning light is now on. Also, the right front wheel bearing has been replaced at least six times since I purchased this vehicle in december, 2008. The first two or three were replaced while the car was still under warranty, but I have had to replace the same right front wheel bearing another three to four times thereafter at my own expense. The last time I had to replace the wheel bearing was in december, 2016, while on vacation. It seems the problem just hasn't been permanently solved. So frustrating and expensive for another wonderful vehicle.

It took way too long for the dealership to get the parts and call us for the repair, especially considering the magnitude of this safety issue. I was nervous for my family's safety.

I received an air safety recall notice therefore I scheduled an appt with boch toyota in norwood, ma to get it fix since that was the dealer I bought the car from 11 years ago. On the day of my appointment I went there and they told me they replaced the air bag and that I was all set then I left.two weeks after while I was driving on my way home my air bag light came on, I immediatly called boch toyota they asked that I bring the car, I went there directly. When I arrived they took my car to go check why the air bag light was on, I reminded them that I was there two weeks ago maybe they had forgtotten to do something. The service advisor told me he would have a mechanic take a look; an hour after another service advisr larry came and told me that the air bag sensor needed to be replaced that I would cost me $800. I told him I had my car for 11 years and the air bag light never had any issue until I brought my car there for them to fix the air bag as requested by the toyota company;larry told me the issue the car has now is not covered under the safety recall and that my only option was to get it fix, he also said that if I was involve in a car accident the air bag will not deploy. I told him that it was boch toyota's responsibilty to fix it, he told me it was not possible. Next they brought my car for me then I left. My air bag light is still on in the car, I have asked two mechanics for suggestions and they both informed me that boch toyota should have taken care of it. Can someone please contact me ? I need to know how to proceed with this sice I'm driving a car with air bags that will not deploy in case I have an accident.

I have the air bag lights on all the time, the time I turn on the car and driving it, it just do not go away on parking either,ever since I buy the car the dealers said it will go away as I drive it, it never did, it is not stable at all every time I brake while driving it goes forward like it did not stop but it did. It is in some way unbalance at every stop. But they said this is how it is since I bought it. Now I try to check on recalls and for some reason this VIN # does not appear to be valid or recognizable by the safety dept.. Why? Why? Why? They do not want to fix it? Or what is going on?

Takata recall- we received the notice for the recall and called our local toyota dealer. They informed us that we would be contacted when parts came in. A few months later, we received a notice indicating that parts had been manufactured for our location. We called again and were told that they didn't have the parts and that a supervisor would call us back. We never received a call back. We called back again a few months later and were told the same exact thing, including that we would get a call back from the supervisor. We received no call back. We called one last time (after battling with this for over a year), and were told the exact same thing. We even said, "can you please make sure he actually calls us back this time? We have been promised many calls back before and never gotten them." well, no call back! In the meantime, we have to avoid traveling with passengers which is a massive inconvenience, especially with two busy children. We had this same recall with our honda and it was completely solved within 6 months.
