DURING MY SCHEDULED VISIT TO ROGERS AND ROGERS NISSAN IN THE CITY OF IMPERIAL CA. I FELT THAT I WAS TREATED UNFAIRLY BECAUSE I WAS THE LAST PERSON TO BE ATTENDED OUT OF SEVERAL VEHICLES THAT CAME AFTER ME. I WAS INFORMED THAT REPAIRING THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG WOULD TAKE OVER THREE HOURS. I WAS NOT OFFERED A RIDE HOME NOR ANY EFFORTS WERE MADE BY ROGERS AND ROGERS PERSONNEL TO ADDRESS MY CONCERNS WHEN I INFORMED THEM THAT I NEEDED MY VEHICLE AND COULD NOT WAIT THREE HOURS. I CONTINUE TO RECEIVE LETTERS AND EMAILS INFORMING ME OF THE URGENCY OF REPAIRING THE AIRBAGS, BUT I FEEL THAT ROGERS AND ROGERS IS NOT MAKING IT A PRIORITY. PLEASE ASSIST ME.

DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, MY CAR ENGINE SHUT-OFF AND BREAKS LOCKED. CAR WILL NOT START ON THE MOVE SO I HAVE TO BRING IT TO A STOP. THE PROCESS OF TRANSITIONING LANES WITHOUT BREAKS WAS VERY SCARY. AFTER THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO A FULL STOP THE CAR WAS ABLE TO START.

RECEIVED IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL IN MAIL (NHTSA RECALL NO. 19V-741). CALLED LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER TO SCHEDULE SERVICE. DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO SCHEDULE SERVICE DATE DUE TO NOT HAVING PARTS ON HAND. I ASKED IF OTHER DEALERSHIPS ON ISLAND HAD PARTS AND WAS TOLD NO. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WILL CALL ME TO SCHEDULE APPOINTMENT WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE; BUT, THEY DO NOT HAVE AN ESTIMATED TIME ON WHEN THAT WOULD BE. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT COULD BE DAYS, WEEKS, OR MONTHS. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR A RECALL THAT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. TOYOTA DEALERS SHOULD PROVIDE A LOANER CAR IN THE MEANTIME OR OTHER COMPENSATION.

THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON IN MY CAR. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM AS THE PLS P&A CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR AND EXPLAINED THAT THE MALFUNCTION WAS THE SAME AS IN OTHER CARS THAT HAD BEEN RECALLED. BECAUSE IT WAS THE SAME MALFUNCTION, I BELIEVE THAT MINE AND OTHER SIMILAR VEHICLES SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE RECALL TO PREVENT HARM TO OTHER DRIVERS.

HAD PASSENGER AIRBAG REPLACED VIA THE FIRST RECALL AT THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER (I-10 TOYOTA IN INDIO). WHEN THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME, THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON. I BROUGHT IT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE REPAIR PERSON AND I WAS TOLD THE LIGHT WAS FOR A PROBLEM WITH THE OTHER AIRBAG AND I WOULD HAVE TO SPEND $150 TO GET IT FIXED. SCAM! I DID NOT GET IT FIXED SO NOW I'M DRIVING AROUND WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON, NOT KNOWING IF OR WHEN IT WILL EXPLODE. THIS SHOULD BE TAKATA'S EXPENSE, NOT MINE.

ENGINE CUTS OUT UNDER ACCELERATION. ON HOTTER THAT 80 DEGREE DAYS IT WILL NOT RUN UP OVER 3000 RPMS. CUTS OUT AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE TO SPEED UNLESS VERY SLOWLY ACCELERATING. HAVE HAD TO DEALER AND THEY TELL ME IT'S THE ECM, BUT YEARS AGO THAT WAS REPLACED UNDER A RECALL FOR THE SAME REASON. 'SUPPOSEDLY'. I'M THINKING EITHER THE WORK WAS NOT PERFORMED OR THE REPLACEMENT UNITS ARE FAULTY AS WELL.

TAKATA RECALL. CAR WAS BROUGHT IN FOR THE RECALL IN AUGUST 2018. TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE ENTIRE MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED (BECAUSE THE STICKER ON THE AIRBAG WAS MISSING FROM A CAR THAT IS OVER 12 YEARS OLD) AND THE PARTS NECESSARY WERE ON BACK ORDER & IT WOULD TAKE 6 MONTHS TO COME IN. IN DECEMBER, I WAS TOLD THERE WERE AROUND 205 PEOPLE IN FRONT OF ME ON THE LIST FOR THE SAME PART. I'VE CONTACTED TOYOTA'S CORPORATE OFFICE MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NO ETA, AND VERY LITTLE CUSTOMER SERVICE IN TRYING TO GET THIS RESOLVED. AS OF FEBRUARY 2019, I STILL DO NOT HAVE MY CAR FIXED AND IT'S SITTING AT THE DEALERSHIP WHILE I"M FORCED TO DRIVE A LOANER THAT I HAVE TO RENEW EVERY 30 DAYS. I CALLED TOYOTA'S REGIONAL OFFICE A FEW WEEKS AGO AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS MAY TAKE YEARS BEFORE THE PARTS ARE IN AND READY BECAUSE THE PARTS HAVE TO GO THROUGH TOYOTA TESTING AND THE GOVERNMENT. I WAS ORIGINALLY TOLD THIS WOULD BE A 3 HOUR FIX, NOW IT'S BEEN OVER 6 MONTHS AND THERE'S STILL NO END IN SIGHT WHEN THE PARTS NECESSARY WILL BE RECEIVED WHILE MY CAR ROTS FROM DISUSE ON THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP GROUNDS. THE ONLY REASON I BROUGHT MY CAR IN WAS BECAUSE TOYOTA WAS HASSLING ME ABOUT THE RECALL AND NOW THEY MAY NEVER HAVE THE PARTS IN TO FIX IT (AT LEAST WHERE I CAN STILL DRIVE MY CAR). THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE THAT PARTS ARE NOT BEING PRODUCED TO FIX THESE ISSUES THAT TOYOTA KNOWS ABOUT IN A TIMELY MANNER.
