ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I'M NOT 100% SURE IF THE MASTER SWITCH WINDOW IS PART OF THE RECALL BUT MY MASTER SWITCH WAS SMOKING AND I FELT LIKE IF I CONTINUED DRIVING EARLIER IT FELT LIKE MY CAR WAS ON FIRE. I COULD'VE LOST CONTROL BECAUSE MY SWITCH WAS LITERALLY SMOKING NON STOP. I WAS AT THE TRAFFIC LIGHT WHEN IT HAPPENED, LUCKILY I WAS ON THE FIRST LINE, I ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE WINDOW SWITCH WITH MY ELBOW AND IT STARTED TO SMOKE. I WASN'T FEELING SAFE SO I CALLED MY INSURANCE AND I ASKED FOR A TOW TRUCK TO BRING MY CAR TO S NEAREST TOYOTA DEALER, I KEPT ASKING TOYOTA DEALER IF THIS WAS PART OF THE RECALL BUT THEY CANNOT ANSWER ME. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING TOYOTA BECAUSE OF THIS. I MIGHT SWITCH MY CAR WITH SOME OTHER BRANDS OF I KEEP GETTING THIS KIND OF INCIDENT.

SEAT BELTS
MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT WILL NOT COME OUT. I HAVE ACTUALLY HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND GOT IT FIXED ABOUT A YEAR OR TWO AGO. I PAID OVER 300.00 FOR A MECHANIC SHOP TO COMPLETELY REPLACE MY SEAT BELT. NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN TO THE REPLACEMENT SEAT BELT. I REALLY DON'T THINK IT SHOULD BE MY RESPONSIBILITY TO GET THIS SEAT BELT THING FIXED EVERY TWO YEARS BECAUSE OF FAULTY/DEFECTIVE ENGINEERING.

SEATS
ON 11/23/2011, I BOUGHT A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA AT STERLING MCCALL TOYOTA. UNFORTUNATELY, THE VEHICLE WAS INADEQUATE BECAUSE OF A HIDDEN DEFECT IN THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE DRIVERS FRONT SEAT. I AM DISAPPOINTED AND CONCERNED BECAUSE THE WAY THE SEAT WAS DESIGNED AND/ OR CONSTRUCTED PLACES A METAL BAR TO BE COMPRESSED AGAINST THE SPINAL COLUMN. THE LOCATION OF THIS METAL BAR LOWERS THE PROTECTION OF THE OCCUPANTS PHYSICAL SAFETY AND PLACES THE DRIVER AT A HIGHER RISK FOR LUMBAR VERTEBRAE INJURY.

SEAT BELTS, AIR BAGS
ROUGHLY TWO YEARS AGO, JANUARY 2013 ACCORDING TO THE LETTER, I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE ON MY CAR. THE LETTER STATES THAT THE RECALL IS STILL IN INTERIM STATUS, SO THERE IS NOTHING I AM ABLE TO DO AS OF YET. OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS I HAVE CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP CHECKING THE STATUS OF NOT ONLY THIS RECALL, BUT ANOTHER I RECEIVED A YEAR LATER. THERE HAS YET TO BE A CHANGE IN THE STATUS OF EITHER SAFETY RECALL. I FEEL THAT I HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY PATIENT IN WAITING FOR SOLUTIONS TO THE POTENTIAL EQUIPMENT MALFUNCTIONS IN MY VEHICLE, HOWEVER THIS PROBLEM STILL HAD YET TO BE REMEDIED.

01/28/13 RECEIVED NOTICE OF TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL BUT STATED MY VEHICLE NOT EFFECTED. 01/28/15 RECEIVED 2ND NOTICE STATING NOT ONLY WAS MY VEHICLE EFFECTED BUT WARNED AGAINST USE OF PASSENGER SEAT. . NEXT LETTER REC'D 03/28/15 INFORMED OF UPCOMING RESOLUTION. 5/04/15 TOOK VEHICLE TO BEDFORD TOYOTA, BEDFORD, OH; ONLY TO BE TOLD 'PART NOT AVAILABLE'. I AM 88 YRS OLD. I MANAGED TO SURVIVE WWII, WORKING FOR THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE, I EVEN RECOVERED FROM A MAJOR STROKE. WHY AM I BEING PLACED IN A POSITION OF ANXIETY, FEAR AND STRESS? THE DEFECT IS DESCRIBED AS A MATTER OF 'DETERIORATION' OF MATERIAL OVER TIME. THAT MEANS BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER ARE AT RISK. I DUTIFULLY DEMAND MY PASSENGER(S) USUALLY A FAMILY MEMBER USE THE REAR SEAT BUT THAT PROVIDES NO ASSURANCE TO THE DRIVER. BUYING A NEW VEHICLE ISN'T AN ANSWER SINCE TAKATA SUPPLIES THEM AS WELL. LIFE MAY NOT BE FAIR BUT TAKATA NOR TOYOTA HAVE ANY RIGHT TO JEOPARDIZE MY LIFE. I NEED SOMEONE TO TAKE SOME POSITIVE ACTION TO RESOLVE MY PROBLEM. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU ASAP. THANK YOU.
