********TAKATA RECALL********* RECEIVED THE NOTICE OVER A YEAR AGO. STILL WAITING. I WAS TOLD BECAUSE IT IS THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG IT IS NOT A PRIORITY - BUT IT IS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO BE TOLD THAT I SHOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THIS IS REMEDIED. THIS IS VERY INCONVENIENT. THEY OFFER NO HELP WITH A LOANER CAR OR HELP WITH PAYING FOR A RENTAL VEHICLE UNTIL THIS IS REMEDIED!

AIR BAGS
TAKATA RECALL I FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING AROUND MY CAR KNOWING MY PASSENGERS ARE UNSAFE. ALTHOUGH IT IS RECOMMENDED FOR PASSENGERS TO NOT USE THE FRONT SEAT, IT IS FRUSTRATING KNOWING I AM PAYING FOR A CAR THAT CANNOT BE USED COMPLETELY. I CANNOT AVOID USING THE FRONT SEAT AT TIMES BECAUSE I USUALLY DRIVE AROUND WITH MY FRIENDS OR FAMILY AND THEY MIGHT NOT ALL FIT IN THE BACK SEAT AT TIMES. THIS IS ALSO CONCERNING BECAUSE CHILDREN SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT AT TIMES AND I DO NOT WANT TO BE PUTTING THEIR LIVES AT RISK. IT IS NOT FAIR I HAVE TO CONTINUE TO PAY EACH MONTH FOR MY CAR WHEN THE PROBLEM WILL NOT BE RESOLVED UNTIL DECEMBER. ALSO, I HAVE HAD THE AIRBAG LIGHT GO ON WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS HAS OCCURRED WHILE NO PASSENGERS ARE PRESENT. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS RELATED TO THE RECALL, BUT IT BRINGS ME CONCERN. A FEW OF MY FRIENDS KNOW OF THE TAKATA RECALL, AND REFUSE TO SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT OF MY CAR. WHY SHOULD I BE PAYING FOR A CAR THAT PUTS OTHERS AT RISK? AS CAREFUL OF A DRIVE ONE MIGHT BE, ANY ACCIDENT CAN HAPPEN FROM HERE TO DECEMBER.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
TOOK MY CAR IN TO HAVE 6MOS. INSPECTION DONE AND I REPORTED THAT I WAS SMELLING SOMETHING LIKE ROTTEN EGGS IN MY CAR. THIS HAPPENS AT LEAST 1-2 TIMES A MONTH AND IT HAPPENS AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR A WHILE. I AM DUE TO TAKE THE CAR IN AGAIN AND I WILL REPORT THAT THIS PROBLEM AGAIN. MY GRAND DAUGHTER WAS IN MY CAR AND SHE ASKED ME WHAT THAT SMELL WAS??? WHEN THIS HAPPENS MY CAR IS USUALLY IN THE PARK POSITION, BUT RUNNING. WHEN I FIRST REPORTED PROBLEM, THEY CK IT OUT AND SAID THAT THEY WOULD KEEP A CK ON THIS PROBLEM

AIR BAGS
TAKATA RECALL I WAS ADVISED IN JANUARY NOT TO DRIVE OUR CAR DUE TO A RECALL OF THE AIRBAGS AND THE POTENTIAL FOR DEATH FROM THEM DEPLOYING. (NHSTA RECALL NUMBER 17V006) IT HAS NOW BEEN 7 MONTHS WITHOUT A REMEDY. THIS IS MY FAMILY'S ONLY VEHICLE AND WE MUST USE IT FOR DAILY LIVING NEEDS. WE FEAR DAILY THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL ENDANGER MYSELF, MY WIFE, OR OUR CHILDREN AND WE DO NOT HAVE THE WEALTH OR LUXURY TO BUY ANOTHER CAR OR USE A TAXI FOR ALL OUR DAILY LIVING NEEDS. WE ARE REQUESTING THAT A REMEDY BE FORCED IMMEDIATELY UPON THE MANUFACTURER EVEN IF IT IS SIMPLY A REMOVAL OF THE AIRBAGS AND PROPELLANT. LETHAL AIRBAGS ARE A GREATER HAZARD THAN USE OF SEATBELTS IN A CAR WITH NO AIRBAGS AT ALL. PLEASE OFFER A SOLUTION IMMEDIATELY OR INFORM US OF HOW THE MANUFACTURER WILL PAY FOR A REPLACEMENT CAR THAT CAN BE SAFELY USED OR BE HELD LIABLE FOR THE COST OF THE CURRENT CAR TOWARD A SAFE REPLACEMENT VEHICLE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS OR SO. THE ELECTRONIC LOCKS ON BOTH FRONT DOORS ONLY WORK SPORADICALLY. THEIR ISSUES STARTED HAPPENING AT THE SAME TIME. OPERATING THE LOCKS MANUALLY IS FINE. IT'S THE ELECTRONIC CONTROLS THAT OFTEN DON'T WORK, WHETHER BY KEYCHAIN OR CONTROLS ON THE DOOR. THE REAR DOORS WORK AS EXPECTED MOST OF THE TIME. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, FIGURING THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CONSIDERING BOTH FAILED AT ONCE. THEY MENTIONED THAT THE REAR ACTUATORS ARE FINE, BUT DUE TO THE WAY THEY ARE WIRED WITH THEIR FRONT COUNTERPARTS, OCCASIONALLY THE FAULTY FRONT ONES WILL BLOCK ENOUGH VOLTAGE FROM REACHING THE THE REAR ONES. FOR $113, THEY DETERMINED THAT THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS NEED REPLACING, FOR $1,100+, WITH THE FOLLOWING PART NUMBERS: #69040-0C050 - DRIVERS DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR #69030-0C050 - PASSENGER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR I DECLINED TO HAVE IT FIXED, AS IT SEEMS TO WORK MANUALLY FOR NOW. IT'S ODD TO ME THAT BOTH PARTS FAILED AT THE SAME TIME.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ABOUT ONCE A MONTH FOR THE PAST 3 MONTHS, MY SPEEDOMETER HAS BEEN STUCK AT 0 FOR AT LEAST 15 OR 20 MINUTES OF MY DRIVE. AFTER ABOUT 15 MINUTES, IT SLOWLY STARTS TO INCREASE: IF I'M GOING WHAT I'D ASSUME IS 60 MPH, IT SHOWS AT 40 AND CLIMBING, AND ABOUT 20 MINUTES INTO MY COMMUTE, MY SPEEDOMETER APPEARS TO BE WORKING FINE. THIS ONLY APPEARS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR HAS JUST BEEN STARTED. I TOOK IT TO AN AUTHORIZED TOYOTA DEALER, WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR ON LEASE, AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THAT MAKES SENSE, AS THIS ONLY HAPPENS ABOUT ONCE PER MONTH. THEY INDICATED THAT THEY CHECKED THE CAR'S COMPUTER AND NO ERROR CODES WERE FOUND, AND THAT THE SYSTEM IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED.

SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKES ARE VERY SPUNGY AND DO NOT SEEM TO INGAGE. BRAKES WILL FILL LIKE THEY ARE STARTING TO WORK AND THEN RELEASE AND YOU MUST PUSH BRAKES DOWN FURTHER BEFORE THEY WILL START BRAKING. VERY SLOW BRAKING RESPONSE TIME. HAD THE BRAKES BLEED TWICE AND DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM SO THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER AND THE CAR BRAKING DID NOT CHANGE AT ALL. MAKES ME VERY NERVOUS TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO SLOW BRAKING RESPONSE.
