2011 TOYOTA COROLLA Complaints

COMPLAINT # 10894698 I COMPLETED THIS FORM IN 8/2016 AND HAVE YET TO RECEIVE ANY RESPONSE.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR TAKATA FROM TOYOTA. THE RECALL NOTICE SAID THAT IF ANYONE SAT IN THE FRONT SEAT WITH ME AND THE AIRBAG INFLATED, THERE COULD BE SERIOUS PERSONAL BODILY INJURY OR DEATH. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED ON MARY 4 AND I RECEIVED NOTICE ON JUNE 9. TO THIS DATE, I HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN ANY NOTICE OF WHAT TOYOTA WILL DO TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. WHEN I CALLED THEM, I WAS TOLD THE "ENGINEERS WERE WORKING ON A SOLUTION." IN THE MEANTIME, I AM PAYING MONTHLY PAYMENTS OF $240 AND AM FEARFUL OF DRIVING MY CAR. WHEN I HAVE A PASSENGER, THEY HAVE TO RIDE IN THE BACK SEAT. MY COMPLAINT IS AGAINST TAKATA AND TOYOTA FOR KNOWING OF THIS PROBLEM AND NOT SOLVING IT. THEY MENTIONED THAT I COULD GET A RENTAL, BUT I HAVE NOWHERE TO PARK IT. I AM A 74 YEAR OLD WOMAN AND I DO NOT KNOW WHERE TO TURN. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP? WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RESOLVED AND WHAT IS AN ESTIMATE OF WHEN I WILL BE ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR AGAIN WITHOUT CONSTANT STRESS?

TAKATA RECALL. MY CAR IS AFFECTED BUT NO TIMEFRAME FOR RESOLUTION HAS BEEN OFFERED BY MANUFACTURER.
