TOYOTA HAS NOTIFIED ME (NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: 14V604) ON SEPTEMBER 29, 2014 AND AGAIN IN SEPTEMBER, 2015 CONCERNING THE REAR SUSPENSION SYSTEM OF MY TACOMA TOYOTA TRUCK. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS SAFETY RECALL 'FIX' HAS GONE ON MUCH TOO LONG. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER TWICE TO SEE ABOUT THIS RECALL BUT THEY SAY THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE NEEDED PARTS FROM TOYOTA. IN THE MEAN TIME MY LEAF SPRINGS OCCASIONALLY MAKE NOISES DESCRIBED BY THE DEALER AS A POTENTIAL SAFETY PROBLEM. MY QUESTION: WHY IS IT TAKING TOYOTA SO LONG TO REPAIR WHAT APPEARS TO BE A SIMPLE PROBLEM? AM I ENDANGERING MY FAMILY AND MYSELF BY CONTINUING TO DRIVE MY 2010 TACOMA?

SEPTEMBER OF 2014 - TOYOTA SENT OUT A PRELIMINARY RECALL NOTICE - NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V604000- AND THAT A REMEDY WOULD BE COMING. THE SPRINGS ON MY TACOMA BROKE, BROUGHT IT IN, TOYOTA DEEMED THE TRUCK WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE, AND GAVE ME A RENTAL. THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN IT CAN BE FIXED. TOYOTA HAS BEEN SITTING ON THIS FOR NEARLY A YEAR. AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE PARTS TO FIX IT? I WAS THE SECOND TRUCK THAT WAS BROUGHT IN LAST FRIDAY WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.

SUSPENSION
MAY 2014. MIDDLE LEAF SPRING (OF A TOTAL OF 3 LEAF SPRINGS) ON LEFT SIDE OF VEHICLE CRACKED. TOYOTA CHARGED $275 TO REPAIR IT. NOVEMBER 2014. TOYOTA ISSUES A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FOR POSSIBLE LEAF SPRING FRACTURE. THEY DO NOT ISSUE A REMEDY AND DO NOT OFFER TO REPLACE ANY LEAF SPRINGS. THEY MENTION A SECOND LETTER THAT WILL AUTHORIZE LEAF SPRING REPLACEMENT, WHICH AS OF TODAY (27 JULY 2015) HAS NOT YET BEEN ISSUED. JULY 2015. ONE LEAF SPRING ON RIGHT SIDE OF VEHICLE CRACKS AND IS REMOVED BY TOYOTA DEALER. CUSTOMER IS TOLD TO DRIVE VEHICLE UNTIL REPLACEMENT SPRING ARRIVE WITH ONLY TWO LEAF SPRINGS ON RIGHT SIDE OF VEHICLE. 27 JULY 2015. LEAF SPRINGS REPLACED ON BOTH SIDES OF VEHICLE WITH A HEAVIER CONSTRUCTION 4-LEAF SPRING ASSEMBLY. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT TOYOTA ISSUED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN NOVEMBER 2014 AND 9 MONTHS LATER THEY DO NOT HAVE A SOLUTION. THEY HAVE REPLACED MY LEAF SPRINGS ONLY BECAUSE THEY BROKE. I DO NOT THINK THAT TOYOTA TAKES THE OBLIGATIONS OF VEHICLE SAFETY SERIOUSLY. THEY ARE NEGLIGENT IN ALLOWING PEOPLE TO DRIVE AROUND IN VEHICLES WITH UNDERRATED LEAF SPRINGS. THEY ALLOWED ME TO DRIVE AROUND WITH ONE FEWER LEAF SPRING ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY VEHICLE. AND THEY HAVE NOT TO DATE REIMBURSED ME FOR MY FIRST LEAF SPRING REPAIR (TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE TELLS ME IT MAY TAKE ONE OR TWO YEARS FROM NOW BEFORE I RECEIVE A LETTER ALLOWING ME TO APPLY FOR REIMBURSEMENT). I APPRECIATE YOUR INVESTIGATION OF THIS SITUATION.
