I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT HONDA HAS RESOLVED THE AIRBAG ISSUE IN MY 2003 VEHICLE IN A VERY TIMELY FASHION AND TOYOTA HAS NOT. IN ADDITION I AM INCURRING ADDED CARPOOL COSTS OF NOT USING THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT DUE TO BEING ADVISED BY TOYOTA NOT TO HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT.

TODAY, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON THIS CAR FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR MODEL. THE NOTICE SAID THAT NO REMEDY WAS YET AVAILABLE. I CALLED THE TOYOTA DEALER AND THEY VERIFIED THIS AND SAID THEY DID NOT KNOW WHEN A REMEDY WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE NOTICE ADVISES THAT NOBODY SHOULD SIT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR UNTIL THE INFLATOR MODULE IS REPLACED. INJURIES AND DEATH HAVE OCCURRED WHEN THE AIRBAG IMPROPERLY DEPLOYS. THIS MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR MY WIFE AND I TO DRIVE THE CAR WITHOUT FEAR FOR OUR SAFETY, MY OTHER CAR IS A 2004 HONDA CIVIC WHICH HAS ALSO BEEN RECALLED FOR, FIRST, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR MODULE AND, THEN, FOR THE AIRBAG INFLATOR MODULE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. I'VE BEEN WAITING 4 MONTHS FOR THE DEALER TO GET THE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THE DRIVER'S SIDE, SINCE THE AIRBAGS FOR BOTH CARS SEEM TO HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED BY TAKATA, IT SEEMS TO ME LIKELY THAT THE TOYOTA WILL ALSO, SOME DAY, BE RECALLED AGAIN FOR THE FRONT AIRBAG INFLATOR MODULE. I AM COMPLAINING BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO ME OBVIOUS THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING 2 UNSAFE CARS SINCE THE TIME I PURCHASED THEM. CONSIDERING THE DANGER OF INJURY OR DEATH, IT DOES NOT SEEM TO ME THAT THE RECALLS ARE NOT BEING HANDLED BY TOYOTA OR HONDA IN A TIMELY MANNER WITH PROPER CONCERN FOR THE SAFETY OF THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS OF THESE CARS. HONDA DID FINALLY RESPOND BY REPLACING THE PASSENGER SIDE MODULE IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR, AT THE SAME TIME TELLING ME I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT INDEFINITELY TO REPLACE THE DRIVER'S SIDE MODULE. FINALLY, I AM SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE DRIVER'S SIDE REPLACED ON SEPT. 3. TOYOTA CAN GIVE ME NO DATE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE PASSENGERS SIDE AND ASSURES ME THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE IS OK . I AM DOUBTFUL.
