TAKATA RECALL...TOYOTA SAID THAT IT WAS DANGEROUS AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND TO NOT USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE FAMILY VEHICLE AND NOT USING THE SEATS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR AND STILL NO REMEDY IS AVAILABLE.

WE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE ON THE POWER SLIDING DOORS. WE TURNED OFF THE POWER TO THE DOORS AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL LETTER. JUST THIS WEEKEND THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE AND ENGAGE. THE DOOR STAYS OPEN AND WILL NOT LATCH. WE TOOK THE RECALL LETTER WITH TO THE TOYOTA DEALER AND THEY CLAIM THIS ISSUE IS NOT RELATED TO THE RECALL. WE DID NOT HAVE IT REPAIRED BUT TOOK IT BACK HOME. WE CALLED THE TOYOTA CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE CENTER ON THE RECALL LETTER AND DESCRIBED THE SITUATION. WHILE ADMITTING THE RECALL IS A DOOR MOTOR ISSUE, THEY DENIED THAT OUR PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE RECALL. EVERYTHING THEY DESCRIBED ABOUT THE REASON FOR THE RECALL IS WHAT IS WRONG WITH OUR DOOR. THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER WHERE WE TOOK THE VAN TODAY GAVE US AN ESTIMATE FOR REPAIR OF $1556.31 + TAX.

TAKATA RECALL. I NEVER RECEIVED A RECOMMENDATION NOTICE. I ONLY DISCOVERED IT IN THE NEWS. AFTER NUMEROUS CALLS TO LOCAL DEALER, RECALL WAS CONFIRMED. ONLY AFTER I CALLED TOYOTA HELP NUMBER DID I LEARN THAT NO ONE SHOULD RIDE IN PASSENGER SEAT AND THAT I WAS AUTHORIZED A LOANER. I CONTACTED LOCAL DEALER AND FINALLY GOT A LOANER. IT HAS BEEN THREE MONTHS AND NOTHING FROM MY LOCAL DEALER. WHAT'S MY NEXT STEP?
