TAKATA RECALL. LEXUS TOLD US THAT HEAT & HUMIDITY AFFECT THE AIR BAG MORE QUICKLY. WE LIVE ON COAST OF SC WHERE THESE ARE VERY HIGH. LEXUS STATED WE WOULD BE IN THE FIRST RECALL DUE TO THAT FACT. SEVERAL MONTHS HAVE PAST WITH NO ACTION. I DO NOT WANT ME OR MY KIDS TO BE KILLED DUE TO A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG. PLEASE HELP.

TAKATA RECALL WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET THIS AIRBAG REPLACED? I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM LEXUS IN MARCH DETAILING THE PROBLEM, AND TELLING ME THAT IT WOULD BE ADDRESSED. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN DONE IN SEPTEMBER. IT IS NOW 10/30. PLEASE HELP!

SUNROOF SHATTERED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY, TRAVELLING AT ABOUT 70 MPH

ISSUES EXIST WITH THE NAVIGATION SCREEN/UNIT. CLIMATE CONTROL IS RUN EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH THIS UNIT, AND WHEN THE UNIT FAILS, THERE IS NO WAY TO CONTROL THE CLIMATE IN THE CAR. WITH THIS SAID, THE WINDOWS CAN FOG UP AND IMPAIR VISIBILITY. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES.

TAKATA RECALL MY VEHICLE IS NOT REPAIRED, LEXUS HAS FAILED TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE IN TIMELY MANNER. I AM UNABLE TO USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AS THE FRONT PASSENGER IS IN THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY
