TAKATA RECALL, IN JUNE 2016 I RECEIVED IN THE US MAIL A NOTICE OF RECALL FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE NOTICE ADVISED ME TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. IT IS 5 MONTHS LATER AND LEXUS STILL HAS NO SOLUTION OR AVAILABLE REMEDY FOR THIS SITUATION. IN THE MEANTIME THE RESALE PRICE OF THE CAR HAS FALLEN DUE TO THIS SITUATION. I WANT THE AIRBAG REPLACED BY LEXUS SOON.

TAKATA RECALL. WE WERE NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL IN JUNE 2016. IT IS NOVEMBER AND WE HAVE RECEIVED NO FURTHER INFORMATION. SO FAR THE ONLY CORRECTIVE ACTION HAS BEEN TO NOT USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. IF THE PROBLEM IS SERIOUS, IT'S TIME TO FIX IT OR AT LEAST LET US KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE FIXED.
