Takata recall. On january 12,2018 I was involved in an accident. A vehicle cut me off and I hydroplaned when braking. There were massive storms occurring. My concern is that my airbags never deployed. I slammed very hard into the median resulting in some lingering back soreness and truthfully a fear of driving in the rain. I received a mailer last week notifying me that this vehicle is now part of an airbag recall. Seen by the photos below, there is no reason why these airbags did not deploy. Something was not right here.

This recall has been in effect for more than two years with no remedy provided. I also am concerned about takata airbags that may be in my vehicle, but I don't see a recall notice (although I regularly receive mail about potential takata airbag recalls). The power window master switch in the involved vehicles may have been manufactured with insufficient lubricant grease. Recall status recall incomplete remedy toyota is currently preparing the remedy for this condition. Once remedy preparations are complete, toyota will send an owner notification letter by first class mail to owners of vehicles covered by this safety recall. Additional details on the remedy will be provided in future communications.

"takata recall" notice was sent. When I tried to contact a dealership there was no local dealership on hawaii to correct the issue. I would like this issue fixed due to the "takata recall" but not have to send my vehicle to the continental us due to this issue not being my fault.

Takata recall my toyota yaris has had recalls on: 1) the front passenger airbag inflator 2) power window master switch 3) driver side seat track assembly & passenger seat track assembly 4) safety recall e0m - remedy notice various models - spiral cable basically, the driver's airbag is damaged and can possibly fail to deploy. The passenger airbag is a bomb, the windows can cause smoke and fire in my car and both driver and passenger seats can snap off the railing causing people in the vehicle to slide forward or backwards (with no airbag protection) in the case of an accident. This vehicle is a death trap - and when I called to schedule the recalls at my local toyota dealership I was told it will take over 30 days for the parts to arrive. When I asked what I am supposed to do about driving my family around in my vehicle the representative said that toyota only "recommends" you don't drive passengers. Is this seriously how toyota will deal with their customers? My car should be completely recalled with these sort of issues. These are not minor issues.

I have not received a notification from the dealership that the remedy is available as described in the federal safety agency recall no. 16v‑340 mailing that was received several months ago. I live in zone a and my vehicle is already (7) years plus years old. I have not allowed anyone to use the front passenger seat as recommended which is very inconvenient for people with arthritis and back issues. How long will it be to remedy this recall? I don't even feel safe driving this vehicle but it is the only one I have to use. Please help. Sincerely, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Our one-car family has been very burdened by this recall for many months because the current "solution" is to not have anyone sitting in the passenger seat. This is already a small car and we have lost one seat due to this issue. If toyota cannot come up with a solution in a reasonable time frame, they should compensate owners of this car for loss of front seat passenger use.

Takata recall. I was issued a recall that has yet to be remedied that may result in serious injury or death to myself or a passenger in my car. How am I supposed to drive in a dangerous vehicle that I depend on to get to work every day? I think it is extremely necessary to at least provide a timeline for the remedy, or at the very least allow all owners at serious risk to use rental cars at no cost from toyota.

I braked to avoid hitting an animal which emerged from the ditch. The car fishtailed, lost control and flipped once landing on it's top. The driver's side was damaged and the insurance company totaled the car. I did hit my head against the driver's side window, but the blow was not severe. My concern is that the side airbag did not deploy. The anti-lock brakes did not work either and have only worked intermittently for quite some time.
