2008 SCION XB Complaints

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SCION XB. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V340000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL MY COMPLAINT IS THERE IS NO DATE AS TO WHEN THE DEFECT REGARDING THE TAKATA AIRBAGS WILL BE COMPLETED. THE RECOMMENDED RESOLUTION FROM TOYOTA IS TO NOT HAVE ANY ONE RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS A HUGE INCONVENIENCE. IS RIDICULOUS TO EXPECT MY FAMILY TO CONTINUE TO DO THIS FOR SOME UNDETERMINED AMOUNT OF TIME. THERE MUST BE SOMETHING ELSE DONE NOW SO I CAN CONTINUE TO USE MY VEHICLE DRIVING MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS AS I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DO WITHOUT FEAR OF POSSIBLE INJURY OR DEATH FROM THE AIRBAGS.

TAKATA RECALL: I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT IT IS RIGHT THAT THERE IS NO SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM YET SINCE MY CAR CAN NOW ONLY HOLD 4 PEOPLE INSTEAD OF 5. IT IS AN INCONVENIENCE THAT I CANNOT HAVE A FRONT PASSENGER. THIS SITUATION SHOULD BE FIXED BY PROVIDING EVERYONE A SAFE RENTAL CAR UNTIL THERE CAN BE A SOLUTION TO THE UNSAFE CONDITIONS.
