TAKATA RECALL I'M JUST CONCERNED AT HOW LONG THIS RECALL IS TAKING. FOR SUCH A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD, IT'S BEEN OVER 6 MONTHS SINCE I RECEIVED MY INITIAL RECALL NOTICE AND I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT IT SINCE. I'M EXPECTING A CHILD IN A FEW MONTHS AND I CAN'T BE DRIVING AROUND IN A VEHICLE THAT HAS SUCH A GLARING SAFETY PROBLEM. THE RECALLS NEED TO BE FIXED FASTER AND MORE EFFICIENTLY.

TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL LETTER RECEIVED LAST YEAR. CALLED TOYOTA OVER THE PAST MONTHS, DEALERSHIP WHICH SOLD US THE CAR (CALDWELL TOYOTA NO LONGER A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND COULDN'T HELP US) AND A RECOMMENDED DEALERSHIP NEARBY. NO ONE COULD GIVE US ANSWERS OR HELP. WE WERE TOLD WE COULD GET A LOANER. DEALERSHIP WANTED US TO GO WITH THEM TO RENT A CAR AND SOMEONE WOULD REIMBURSE US (PAUL MILLER). I CANNOT EFFICIENTLY CARPOOL WITH TEEN DAUGHTER'S TEAMMATES AND FRIENDS. TOYOTA ASSURED ME LAST YEAR THAT PARTS WERE GOING TO SOUTHERN "WARM" STATES FIRST AND THEN WOULD GET TO NORTHEAST. KEEP CALLING SERVICE CENTER OR WAIT FOR LETTER ANNOUNCING PARTS ARE IN. IN SEPT. I WAS TOLD MORE CARS WERE INVOLVED THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT. REMEDY COULD TAKE LONGER. THEY TOLD ME TO KEEP CALLING TOYOTA AS WELL FOR UPDATES. IN OCTOBER I WAS ASSURED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS NOT IMPACTED. IF THE "AIRBAG" LIGHT IS CONSISTENTLY ON I CAN BRING CAR TO HAVE AIRBAG DEACTIVATED. APPARENTLY NO AIRBAG IS SAFER THAN A FAULTY ONE THAT CAN IMPALE MY WITH [XXX] CHILDREN!!!??? SHAME ON ALL INVOLVED IN THIS. I AM A MOTHER OF A TEEN WHO SOON WILL BE LEARNING TO DRIVE - IS IT SAFE TO HAVE THE ADULT DRIVER IN THE BACKSEAT WITH THE RESTRICTED DRIVER IN THE FRONT ALONE? MY MOTHER IS 92 AND MY MOTHER-IN-LAW IS 87 I AM THEIR MAIN SOURCE OF TRANSPORATATION. I DRIVE DISABLED AND ELDERLY PARISHIONERS FROM MY CHURCH TO CHURCH EVENTS, SHOPPING AND ERRANDS. I BOUGHT A CAR WITH 2 FRONT SEATS AND THREE IN THE BACK BECAUSE I NEED THEM ALL! THIS RECALL HAS BEEN FRUSTRATING AND AN ENERGY DRAINER, THIS RECALL AFFECTS MY LIFE EVERY DAY. BEING AN OPTIMIST AND MY "THINGS COULD BE WORSE" ATTITUDE HAVE PROBABLY NOT BEEN HELPFUL IN GETTING ANSWERS AND SOLUTIONS...I AM LOSING MY PATIENCE. ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY CAR WAS HACKED ALMOST KILLING ME. CYBER ATTACK 10/31/15 AS I WAS DRIVING THE BATTERY/ALTERNATOR KEPT DRAINING FORCING ME TO PULL OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD. A STRANGE GAS ALSO WAS PERIODICALLY SPRAYING OUT OF VENT FOGGING WINDOWS W/WHITE FILM MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE & BREATH. EACH TIME I PULLED OVER CAR RECHARGED ITSELF ON GRASS/DIRT. AT LEAST THE 8TH OR 9TH TIME THIS HAPPENED THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED TO RIGHT & W/IN 1-2 SECONDS I WENT FROM 45-50MPH-0 LIKE HITTING INVISIBLE BUILDING IN MIDDLE OF ROAD. PUSHED GAS PEDAL TO FLOOR, NOT ENOUGH SPEED TO PULL OFF ROAD. NO LIGHTS, POWER, ENGINE DIED. MY BODY WAS JARRED FORWARD ABRUPTLY. A RED LIGHT STARTED BLINKING & BEEPING AT BOTTOM OF CONSUL & GAS STARTED COMING OUT OF VENT AGAIN. I STRUGGLED TO GET OUT OF CAR FOR FEAR OF BEING HIT FROM BEHIND AS IT WAS PITCH BLACK OUT, ALSO WANTED TO GET CAT OUT CAR WHICH I LEFT IN FIELD BEFORE POLICE & AMBULANCE ARRIVED. I HAD BLOOD DOWN TO SOCKS. I WAS IN HOSPITAL 1 WEEK AND NO ACCIDENT REPORT WAS FILED, MY CAT IS STILL MISSING. I CALLED DEALERSHIP TO REPORT MECHANICAL/ELECTRICAL DEFECT & WAS AVOIDED/RESISTED FOR 3 1/2 WEEKS/OVER 30 HOURS ON THE PHONE BEFORE IT WAS SUGGESTED I CALL MANUFACTURER & ANOTHER 2 WEEKS BEFORE THEY COOPERATED & FILED CLAIM. THIS HAS BEEN A FULL TIME JOB TRYING TO GET SOMEONE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. I SELL REAL ESTATE & CANT WORK/EARN MONEY WITH NO CAR. 12/11/15 TOYOTA SENT INSPECTOR TO PLACE CAR WAS TOWED TO PULL INFO OFF DATA RECORDER. 2/1/15 I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED REPORT. I HAVE 3 YEAR ONE PAY LEASE EXPIRING 9/2016, NO MONEY & NO CAR. THIS HAS BEEN AN ABSURD, BRAIN DRAINING EXHAUSTING WASTE OF TIME W/NO END IN SITE. I'VE REACHED OUT TO FTC, CONSUMER PROTECTION, GOVENORS/SENATORS...I JUST WANTED THEM TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY, LOAN OR GIVE ME A CAR WHILE THEY INSPECT AND HAVE HAD ZERO RECOURSE TO DATE. THEY WANT TO SUE ME FOR COST OF CAR/IMPOUND/STORAGE FEES.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
WHEN OUTSIDE ARE TEMPS ARE COLDER AND REQUIRE HEAT AND DEFROST THE INSIDE WINDOWS WILL NOT STAY CLEAR. THE FOGGING OF THE WINDOWS MAKES THIS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE, WORSE AT NIGHT. I HAVE READ ON SEVERAL BLOG SITES AND ON THE INTERNET THAT IS A COMMON CONCERN . RECIRCULATION MOTOR ON HVAC IS STUCK INTO RECIRC MODE AND WILL NOT CLEAR WINDOWS. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL AS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE.
