TAKATA RECALL - MY COMPLAINT IS THAT I'VE BEEN TOLD NOT TO USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE AIRBAG IS REPLACED. I CALLED MY TOYOTA/SCION DEALER AND THEY HAVE NO DATE WHEN THE REPAIR CAN BE MADE BUT IT MAY BE MONTHS. SO MEANTIME I'M STUCK WITH A CAR WITH LIMITED FUNCTIONALITY SINCE I CAN'T CARRY A PASSENGER OR EVEN PUT HEAVY OBJECTS ON THE SEAT (AS THAT WOULD ACTIVATE THE AIRBAG). AND GIVEN THIS LIMITED FUNCTIONALITY AND AGE OF CAR, IF I TRIED TO SELL IT NOW, UNDER THIS RECALL, THE RESALE VALUE IS BEING HURT. I'M NOT SATISFIED WITH THE TIME IT IS GOING TO TAKE TO GET MY VEHICLE BACK TO NORMAL. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO MAKE TOYOTA ACT FASTER OR COMPENSATE US FOR THE INCONVENIENCE?

OIL CONSUMPTION. EVER SINCE THIS VEHICLE WAS NEW I HAD TO ADD OIL SEVERAL TIMES IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. WHICH I THOUGH WAS "ODD" BUT WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA ABOUT IT THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL FOR MY CAR TO CONSUME OIL. GOT A LETTER CALLED WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM SAYS TO BRING CAR IN FOR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND IS CAR BURNS MORE THAN 1QT IN 1100-1300 MILES I WOULD GET IT REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY (NOT RECALL KEEP IN MIND). SO THE TEST SHOWED I BURNED 3/4 OF OIL IN 1300. I GET NOTHING FROM TOYOTA. NOT ENOUGH OIL CONSUMPTION FOR THEM TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME. I DON'T UNDERSTAND 3/4 IN 1300 MILES IS (A LOT) MEANS I HAVE TO ADD 4QTS OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES IF INTERVALS ARE 5000 MILES. THAT IS RIDICULOUS!!! I AM BASICALLY DOING A OIL CHANGE MY SELF BY BURNING & ADDING BECAUSE 4QTS IS THE CAPACITY OF THIS CAR. TOYOTA SET THE STANDARD OF THIS TEST BEYOND REASONABLE ON PURPOSE. THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT WILL QUALIFY FOR ANY REPAIRS TO THE PISTON RINGS OR BLOCK WOULD BE PEOPLE THAT NEGLECTED THEIR ENGINES BY NOT ADDING OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AND DAMAGING THE ENGINE MORE THAN THE GOOD GUY CONSTANTLY ADDING TO SAVE OUR CAR!!! TOYOTA IS NOT A GOOD COMPANY FOR REASONS LIKE THIS. I WILL STICK WITH HONDA IN THE FUTURE. HONDA DOES NOT PLAY THESE STUPID GAMES WITH PEOPLE. MY SCION HAS BEEN CONSUMING EXCESSIVE OIL SINCE IT WAS BRAND NEW AND TOYOTA KNOWS ABOUT ISSUE SINCE THEY ISSUED A TSB ON IT AND FREE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. DUE TO THIS PROBLEM THIS CAR IS NOT A GOOD CAR TO OWN. I STRONGLY SUGGEST PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR PROBLEM TO COME FORWARD AND LET THE WORLD KNOW HOW RIDICULOUS TOYOTA IS HANDING THE OIL CONSUMPTIONS ISSUE.
