TAKATA RECALL TOYOTA IS NOT DOING ENOUGH TO EXPEDITE THE RECALL OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR SINCE I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND IT'S STILL LISTED AS HAVING NO REMEDY AVAILABLE EVEN THOUGH I AM LISTED IN A PRIORITY ZONE A. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. NHTSA, PLEASE PRESSURE TOYOTA AND TAKATA INTO EXPEDITING THIS DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATENING RECALL FOR THE SAKE OF EVERYBODY'S SAFETY.

TAKATA RECALL. MY SCION XB IS MAIN CAR FOR USE WITH MY CHILDREN AND FAMILY. IT'S USED AS MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM SCHOOL. I WAS INFORMED OF THE RECALL LAST YEAR AND STILL HAVE NOT HEARD ON WHEN THIS WILL GET FIXED. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M TRANSPORTING CHILDREN AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO NOT GO ANYWHERE WITHOUT USING THE PASSENGER SIDE SINCE ALL SEATS ARE BEING USED WHEN DRIVING WITH FAMILY. I FEEL THE RECALL HAS NOT BEEN HANDLED IN A TIMELY MANNER AND I FEAR FOR WHAT MAY HAPPEN IF AN ACCIDENT DOES TAKE PLACE. IT IS SAID THAT DRIVERS SHOULD ARRANGE TO HAVE AIRBAGS REPLACED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE HOWEVER I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED NOR CAN I FIND ANY INFO ON WHEN MY MAKE AND MODEL WILL HAVE THIS ISSUE SOLVED.
