I received my first notice from toyota last year, 6-8 month ago, to give notice for a recall on my front driver airbag inflator. I contacted my local toyota dealer in grapevine and after explaining the situation, I was told they would order the part and contact me when it was in. 6 to 8 month have gone by and another reminder from toyota, torrance, ca about the same issue was sent to me. Following I called my grapevine dealership and they said the part was in. I needed to check my schedule and I called they back 2 days later to set up an appointment. Then, I was informed that my part was never ordered in the first place and that they did not have any airbag inflators on stock. I have now made an appointment with toyota of lewisville to resolve this issue even though toyota of grapevine is only a mile from my house.

Takata recall since october 2015, I have been told repeatedly by beechmont toyota in cincinnati, ohio that they do not have the repair part in stock. They keep telling me they will order it, but it never seems to come in. I am growing concerned, as the airbag in the car now may be dangerous, and could cause injury or death to my wife and myself. I am tired of waiting for the dealer to get this part, and I want to know what the problem is, before something terrible happens.

In early october 2015 after receiving front driver airbag inflator recall called my dealer autonation toyota winter park, fl and tried to make appointment to replace airbag. They indicated that they had not gotten the parts as of yet but would call me back when they received same. On december 5, 2015 called them again and was told that they have not gotten the replacement airbags but would call me when same was received. They did not know when they would be receiving the airbag replacement. This is unacceptable on a recall. What can I do?
"takata recall" I'm trying to make an appointment to get this fixed but, I'm having trouble having a dealership call me back after leaving messages. Would you please let me know which toyota dealership is willing to do this? I live in new jersey and my zipcode is 08501. Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Takata recall we have received the remedy notice. None of the dealers in our area have the necessary parts to perform the remedy. Further that the parts have been back ordered for months. Toyota's letter says this is a serious safety issue. If toyota took this situation seriously, or if it affected their bottom line, they would see to it that they had the parts ready to be installed. If anyone is injured in my car because of failure to correct the issue, I will hold toyota and the federal safety agency responsible.

I received recall notice last week, called dealer to schedule appt., was told some one would call me back. Heard nothing, so I called back again today and was told to wait, people had been waiting 2 months. Recall notice "strongly recommends that you have this remedy performed immediately". If the dealer is overwhelmed with this recall, why aren't independent repair shops allowed to perform this procedure? Hopefully, I won't have an accident.

My mother was involved in a side impact crash (passengers side) in 2014. Her car was totaled as the other car essentially speared hers caving in the right side. She was wearing seatbelt and the airbag deployed. Mom survived with no internal injuries. However she was left with severe lacerations to the scalp, face and hematoma to the head which needed surgery. I suspect this injury was from the airbag deploying violently. My husband who is a retired firefighter/medic inspected the car after the wreck and he feels the same. There was no indication that her head hit the side window or windshield. There was blood on the airbag and all over her seat. This incident happened in florida on a hot august day. The car has been in fl for the last ten years.
