TAKATA AIRBAGS I LIVE IN SAN DIEGO CA AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NO FIX AVAILABLE FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL AND THERE MAY NOT BE FOR YEARS. I HAVE JUST HEARD FROM FRIENDS IN THE NORTHEAST US AND THEY ARE GETTING THE AIRBAGS TAKEN CARE OF, WHY IS THERE NO FIX AVAILABLE IN SO CA

I DRIVE A FRS, AUTOMIATIC. BOUGHT IT USED WITH 80,000 MILES. I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS TWO MONTHS INTO OWNING IT. HAD A FEELING LIKE IT WAS TRYING TO STALL. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH THE TRACTION LIGHT. CODE READ P0019. CAR WOULD SHAKE VICIOUSLY WHEN I WHEN STOP AT A RED LIGHT. SHOOK WHEN I REVERSED SOMETIMES. STARTED IDLING REALLY LOW. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAID THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, $6,450. READ A LOT OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS FROM OTHER FRS OWNERS. CALL CORPORATE, THEY BUILD A CASE FOR ME. COMPLETELY BLEW ME OFF, BECAUSE THE CAR WASN'T SERVICED WITH THEM THROUGHOUT 30,000 MILES BY OWNER BEFORE. THEY SAID THEY WOULDN'T HELP A USED CAR. MY HOUSEHOLD HOLDS 6 TOYOTA CARS AND THEY DIDN'T DO ONE THING TO HELP, BUT OFFERED $1,000 IF I BOUGHT A NEW CAR OFF THEM. I'M IN SCHOOL AND HAVE TO PAY OTHER THINGS AND I TRUSTED THEM AND THEIR VEHICLES AND WAS JUST BLOWN OFF LIKE NOTHING. IT SUCKS TO FINALLY BUY YOUR DREAM CAR AND ONLY TO FIND OUT THERE'S SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. TOYOTA FAILED ME. ODOMETER READS 87,000

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.
