TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 TOYOTA 4RUNNER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V006000 (AIR BAGS). THE PART NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR.

THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO REMEDY, BUT HOPED TO HAVE ONE IN DECEMBER OF 2017. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA INFLATOR ; THE REMEDY OR FIX IS TAKING TOO LONG . I HAVE A NEPHEW WITH A SEQUOIA AND HE SAID HIS WAS FIXED ALREADY..I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS INQUIRIES FROM DEALER WANTING ME TO TRADE UP. WHY WOULD DEALER WANT MINE UNLESS THEY COULD FIX AND SELL QUICKLY. THIS DOES NOT PASS THE SMELL TEST.

TAKATA RECALL IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 6 MONTHS SINCE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG RECALL AND THERE IS STILL NO FIX

TAKATA RECALL. THIS RECALLED WAS PUBLISHED ON 9 JANUARY 2017 AND IT STILL SHOWS A STATUS OF "INCOMPLETE WITH A REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE". YET, THERE IS A SAFETY RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL SERVICE DEALER AND THE ONLY RECOMMENDATION IS THAT WE NOT USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE IF YOU HAVE A FAMILY. WE ARE ALSO OF TRANSFERRING TO EUROPE ON MILITARY ORDERS IN JUNE AND HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM THEM. IF THE MANUFACTURER HAS FAILED OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL FOR YOUR VEHICLE IN A TIMELY MANNER, PLEASE CONTACT THE NHTSA VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT: 1-888-327-4236 OR TTY: 1-800-424-9153 OR FILE AN ONLINE COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA.

I RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG IN MY 2012 TOYOTA 4RUNNER HAS BEEN RECALLED. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THEY REFERRED ME TO TOYOTA CUSTOMER CARE. CUSTOMER CARE SAID THAT THEY ARE NOT EXPECTING A SOLUTION UNTIL DECEMBER 2017 AND THAT I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE ANYONE SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT UNTIL IT IS REPLACED. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT AN EQUIVALENT RENTAL FOR THE NEXT 8 MONTHS THEY REFERRED ME BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP DOES NOT OFFER AN EQUIVALENT RENTAL. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING SINCE I WOULD NEVER DRIVE OR PURCHASE THE RENTALS AVAILABLE TO ME THROUGH TOYOTA. AT THIS POINT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE BUY BACK PROGRAM IS FOR MY UNSAFE VEHICLE.
