THERE HAS BEEN NO REMEDY TO THIS SAFETY RECALL ISSUE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, AND I DO NOT BELIEVE TOYOTA HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME. I AM SUBMITTING A COMPLAINT AGAINST TOYOTA. THE SAFETY RECALL IS CONCERNING PASSENGER AIRBAG DEFECTS THAT COULD POTENTIALLY BE FATAL.

WE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL ABOUT DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS BACK IN AUGUST 2015 (EVEN THOUGH THE RECALL WAS MADE AWARE TO NHSA BACK IN MAY 2015). IT IS NOW OCTOBER AND NOTHING HAS OCCURRED TO REMEDY THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION! ALL THE LETTER SAID FROM TOYOTA IS THAT NO ONE SHOULD SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. WITH A FAMILY OF 4, AND THIS BEING OUR ONLY VEHICLE, THAT IS OUTRAGEOUSLY UNACCEPTABLE! WE NEED THAT SEAT. ALSO, IF THE AIRBAG SHOULD DEPLOY METAL MATERIAL, I WOULD THINK THE DEBRIS WOULD NOT BE CONTAINED JUST TO MY FACE, BUT TO MY CHILDREN SITTING IN THE BACK! WHY HAS TOYOTA NOT COMPLETED MANUFACTURING REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS AND SENDING THEM TO ITS CUSTOMERS?! WHY HAVE THEY NOT SENT AN UPDATE TO THIS SITUATION?

ENGINE
I HAVE ATTEMPTED FOR THE LAST 14 MONTHS TO GET A NOISE FIXED WHEN MY CAR STARTS UP. I HAVE MADE 10 REPAIR EFFORTS WITH TOYOTA AND TOYOTA CORPORATE. I HAVE FILED LEMON LAW ON MY CAR AND TOYOTA HAS SENT ME LETTERS TWICE STATING THEY HAVE REVIEWED MY REPAIR ORDERS, INSPECTED THE CAR, AND IT IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. WHILE THE LETTERS ARE BEING SENT TO ME I HAVE OPEN APPOINTMENTS TO GET THE CAR REPAIRED FOR THIS ISSUE. I CALLED THE TOYOTA FIELD REP AND HE STATED THAT MY CASE IS CLOSED BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR. THE NOISE HAPPENS WHEN STARTING THE CAR AFTER IT HAS BEEN SITTING FOR AT LEAST 20 MINUTES. IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS BROKEN INSIDE THE ENGINE. ON THE LAST TRIP TO THE DEALERSHIP TOYOTA REPLACED THE STARTER ON MY CAR AND IT DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE ENGINE ITSELF IN MY CAR SINCE THE STARTER HAS BEEN REPLACED. I AM AFRAID MY CAR IS GOING TO STALL OUT ON ME WHILE DRIVING CAUSING ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE RECORDED SOUNDS OF THE NOISE OCCURRING AND I WOULD LIKE TO SUBMIT THEM WHEN I AM CONTACTED.

TOYOTA HAS A TSB FOR 2009 - 2010 COROLLA WITH THE 2ZR ENGINE, IT IS T-SB-0087-09 BRIEF ENGINE KNOCK/RATTLE NOISE AT COLD STARTUP, MY CAR HAS THIS PROBLEM AND NEEDS THE CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY REPLACED. I CALLED "TOYOTA CARE" AT THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE LOCAL TOYOTA SERVICE MANAGER. TOYOTA CARE SAID MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS TSB AND THAT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. (MY COROLLA WAS AN EARLY 2009 PRODUCTION MODEL, MFD IN 2/2008, IN SERVICE BEGINNING IN MAY OF 2008 ( I BELIEVE) AND THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO HELP ME. MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RANGE OF ELIGIBLE VIN NUMBERS AND IS OUT OF WARRANTY. MY COROLLA HAS HAD THE NOISE FOR A LONG TIME AND ONLY HAS APPX. 60K MILES ON IT, IT IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURING FLAW OR ERROR AND TOYOTA SHOULD RECALL ALL 2009 COROLLAS FOR REPAIR. THE WEBSITE TOYOTANATION AND COROLLAND NOTE MANY OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN THE CAR COLD STARTS IT RATTLES FOR THE FIRST SECOND LIKE THERE IS NO OIL IN THE MOTOR, A VERY LOUD KNOCK, THIS ALSO OCCURS ON WARM STARTS AFTER ONLY A FEW HOURS OF BEING PARKED, AND SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING. MY COROLLAS HAS HAD IT'S OIL AND FILTER CHANGED EVERY 5K MILES SINCE NEW; OBVIOUSLY NOT PRECIPITATED BY NEGLECT OR ABUSE.

MY CAR IS PART OF THE AIRBAG RECALL AND I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT DUE TO THE PROLONGED AMOUNT OF TIME THE MANUFACTURER IS TAKING TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. IT IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE THAT THERE ISN'T EVEN ANY INFORMATION ABOUT AN APPROXIMATE TIMELINE FOR A FIX. RENTAL CARS WITH FUNCTIONING PASSENGER SEATS SHOULD BE ISSUED TO ALL EFFECTED IF THIS IS NOT FIXED SOON.

SEPT 3RD AT 9:42 A.M.
