TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE TAKATA RECALL IN MARCH, AT THE LATEST, AND FOLLOWED THEIR RECOMMENDATION OF NOT ALLOWING SOMEONE TO SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. HOWEVER, WITH FIVE FAMILY MEMBERS, THIS IS NOT A VIABLE SOLUTION FOR MY FAMILY. WE CANNOT FIT ALL OF US, LET ALONE GUESTS, IN THE CAR AND STILL AVOID THE RECALLED AIR BAG. TOYOTA HAS BEEN GOOD ABOUT ISSUING RECALLS AND PROVIDING REMEDIES WITHIN A MONTH OF THE RECALL, BUT THIS HAS GONE ON LONG ENOUGH. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED IN JANUARY, I RECEIVED NOTICE IN MARCH, AND IT IS NOW MID-JULY, WITH NO REMEDY FORTHCOMING. I AM FRUSTRATED THAT A SOLUTION HAS NOT YET BEEN PROVIDED AND SINCERELY HOPE THAT THIS ISSUE WILL BE DEALT WITH BEFORE THE MONTH IS OUT. *TR

RECALL NOTICE WAS RECEIVED IN MARCH 2016. I CONTACTED TOYOTA SANTA MONICA (THEY ARE THE CLOSEST LOCATION TO HOME AND MOST CONVENIENT FOR WORK) AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL ME TO LET ME KNOW IF THE PART WAS IN. TWO WEEKS PASSED AND I CALLED AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PART AND WOULD GET A CALL WHEN IT CAME IN. TWO MONTHS LATER, I CALL AGAIN AND WAS INFORMED THE PART WAS BACKORDERED 4-6 WEEKS AND WOULD ONCE AGAIN RECEIVE A CALL TO LET ME KNOW WHEN I CAN BRING MY VEHICLE IN. ADMITTEDLY, THE NOTICE WAS FORGOTTEN AS I WAITED. I FOUND THE RECALL NOTICE AND CONTACTED TOYOTA SANTA MONICA ON JUNE 29, 2017 IN HOPES OF BRINGING IN MY VEHICLE ON JULY 5TH. I WAS TOLD THEY HAD ONE PART IN STOCK, BUT IF I WANT TO BRING MY CAR IN AT THAT TIME THEY WOULD HAVE TO PLACE AN ORDER. BECAUSE OF MY WORK SCHEDULE THE 5TH WAS THE BEST TIME FOR ME. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WILL THEN HAVE TO ORDER THE PART, BUT EVEN WITH THE HOLIDAY THEY SHOULD GET IT IN BY THE 5TH AND THEY WOULD CALL ME TO LET ME KNOW THE PART WAS IN FACT IN SO I COULD BRING IN MY VEHICLE. I CALLED AGAIN ON JULY 14TH AND SPOKE TO THE PARTS DEPARTMENT OF TOYOTA SANTA MONICA. NOT ONLY WAS MY NAME AND NUMBER NOT IN THE SYSTEM, THERE WAS NEVER ANY ORDERS PLACED UNDER MY NAME. I WAS THEN INFORMED THAT THEY HAD PLENTY OF PARTS IN STOCK. I WAS TRANSFERRED TO THE SERVICE CENTER TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WHERE NO ONE ANSWERED. JULY 17TH, I GET A HOLD OF THE SERVICE CENTER FOR TOYOTA SANTA MONICA WHERE I WAS ONCE AGAIN INFORMED THEY HAVE PLENTY OF THOSE PARTS IN STOCK AND OVER A YEAR LATER I FINALLY HAVE AN APPOINTMENT. I HAD CALLED FOUR TIMES AND FOUR TIMES I WAS TOLD AN ORDER WAS PLACED. NOT ONLY DID I NEVER RECEIVE ANY RETURNED CALLS, BUT THE PART WAS NEVER ORDERED UNDER MY NAME.

STEERING
I OWN A TOYOTA COROLLA 2009, AND WHEN I WAS DRIVING AT 285 S. ALTANTA, GA; ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME VERY HEAVY. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN RIGHT AT EXIT 40 AND TO CHANGE DIRECTION. JUST LIKE THE STEERING WAS LOCKED. I JUST BARELY COULD TURN INTO THE PARKING SPACE CLOSE TO THAT EXIT. I AM DRIVING THIS CAR EVERY DAY FOR ONE HOUR IN THE MORNING, AND ONE HOUR OR MORE IN THE AFTERNOON, I'M SCARE THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN WHILE I'M DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY (85 ATLANTA) OR IN A LOT OF TRAFFIC. I AM SO AFRAID OF DRIVING THIS CAR. PLEASE, HELP ME!! DO WE HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM? I THINK THAT TOYOTA COROLLA STEERING PROBLEMS MAY LEAD TO ANOTHER RECALL. WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR?

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL IN JUNE OF 2016. THE TEMPORARY REMEDY WAS TO NOT ALLOW ANY PASSENGERS TO RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE AIRBAG HAD BEEN REPLACED. I LEARNED OF THE AVAILABILITY OF THE REPLACEMENT PARTS IN JUNE OF 2017 WHEN I CALLED FOR A THIRD TIME TO PURSUE THE REMEDY. IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE PARTS HAD BECOME AVAILABLE IN MAY OF 2017, AND I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE REMEDY BY TOYOTA IN JULY OF 2017. A FULL CALENDAR YEAR IS AN UNACCEPTABLE DELAY FOR A SAFETY RECALL, AND EXPECTING TOYOTA OWNERS TO NOT USE THEIR FRONT PASSENGER SEATS FOR A YEAR IS RIDICULOUS. I AM AWARE OF OTHER CAR COMPANIES THAT SENT A SIMILAR RECALL NOTICE AND OFFERED THE REMEDY WITHIN TWO WEEKS. I HAVE NOW HAD THE SERVICE COMPLETED.

"TAKATA RECALL" : NOW 13+ MONTHS SINCE 1ST HEARD OF THIS RECALL! ALSO JUST HEARD THAT ANOTHER DRIVER HAS DIED BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM ( 18 AND COUNTING WORLDWIDE ), AND THAT TAKATA HAS FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY! SUPPOSEDLY THE LATEST DRIVER TO DIE RECEIVED 10 NOTICES AND FAILED TO HAVE THE PROBLEM RESOLVED. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IS WHY I HAVE YET TOO RECEIVE EVEN MY 1ST NOTICE??? IS IT BECAUSE I AM A "SECONDARY" OWNER AND DO NOT HAVE THE SAME "RIGHTS" AS AN ORIGINAL OWNER? PROTECTION SHOULD BE EQUAL UNDER THE LAW!!!
