TAKATA RECALL SINCE THE CAR IS NOT USEABLE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED (A 5-PASSENGER CAR), I AM ASKING FOR COMPENSATION FROM LEXUS OR TAKATA, AS THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT THE REPAIR CAN BE MADE IN ANY TIME FRAME. IT COULD BE YEARS BEFORE THE REPAIR IS MADE, THEREBY MEANING THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE. LEXUS OR TAKATA SHOULD PROVIDE MONETARY COMPENSATION TO MAKE UP FOR THIS. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT WE CANNOT USE THE VEHICLE, AND THE RECALL NOTICE WAS COMPLETELY USELESS, BASICALLY SAYING "DON'T USE YOUR CAR" (FOR WHICH WE PAID TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS). IT IS CALLING IT AN "INCONVENIENCE" WHICH IS NOT ACCURATE. THE ISSUE OF THE AIR BAGS HAS BEEN KNOWN FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND LEXUS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK ON A REMEDY. I AM HOPING THAT NHTSA CAN ASSIST IN THIS MATTER. THANK YOU.

"TAKATA RECALL" ...DEALER IS NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE DATE OF REPLACEMENT...ONLY THAT THE CAR WILL BE RECALLED BASED UPON STATE REGISTRATION DATA BANK. NOT A VALID RESPONSE IN OUR MIND.

TAKATA RECALL. UNABLE TO SAFELY UTILIZE THE VEHICLE SINCE THE MAY 23, 2016 RECALL. THIS IS TOTALLY UNSATISFACTORY. WE NEED A SOLUTION NOW.
