2011 TOYOTA 4RUNNER Complaints

TAKATA RECALL TOYOTA HAS YET TO PROVIDE A FIX FOR THIS RECALL AND THEY HAVE PROVIDED NO TIMELINE FOR HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE. IN THE MEANTIME, I AM STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT I CANNOT HAVE A PASSENGER SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND I WONDER IF THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG IS EVEN SAFE.

TAKATA RECALL. NOTIFIED IN MAY OF THE PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. HAVE MADE SEVERAL CALLS TO THE DEALER LEGACY TOYOTA, IN TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA ON THE STATUS OF RECEIVING THE REPLACEMENT PART. THEY CANNOT GIVE A DATE ON WHEN THE PART WILL BE RECEIVED. I AM IN ZONE A WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE A HIGH PRIORITY DUE TO HIGH TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY. SIGNIFICANT PROPELLANT DEGRADATION MAY OCCUR IS PROJECTED AT BETWEEN 6-9 YEARS. YOUR WEBSITE SAYS MILLIONS HAVE BEEN REPLACED SO I WONDER WHY I CANNOT GET A REPLACEMENT? VERY FRUSTRATED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE OPERATED.

TOYOTA MAILED A LETTER REGARDING THE RECALL, DATED JUNE 9,2016. I RECEIVED THE LETTER ON JULY 19,2016. I SENT AN EMAIL TO TOYOTA ON JULY 19,2016 REGARDING MY CONCERNS AS THE LETTER INDICATED THAT I COULD NOT HAVE A PASSENGER. ON AUGUST 1, 2016, TOYOTA APPROVED FOR ME TO USE A COMPACT CAR RENTAL. BECAUSE THE RENTAL WAS APPROVED, I HAD TO LEAVE MY VEHICLE AT THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL PART COULD TAKE 6 MONTHS TO 1 YEAR TO FIX. ALTHOUGH I APPRECIATE A RENTAL BEING COVERED DURING THIS PROCESS. TOYOTA HAS PLACED ME IN A SMALL COMPACT CAR THAT DOES NOT MEET SAFETY STANDARDS FOR MY FAMILY, AS I HAVE A BIGGER VEHICLE WITH 3RD ROW SEATING. I AM BEING TOLD I CAN BE WITHOUT MY VEHICLE FOR 6 MONTHS TO 1 YEAR WITH NO ACTUAL DATE GIVEN TO ME. I DON'T BELIEVE TOYOTA IS MOVING IN A TIMELY MANNER TO CORRECT THIS RECALL AND I BELIEVE THEY ARE PLACING MANY FAMILIES AT RISK.
