I HAVE TWO RECALLS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS MINIVAN. ONE WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAG, ANOTHER WITH THE SLIDING DOOR. CALLED THE DEALER MOSSY TOYOTA AT SAN DIEGO IN LATE JULY BUT THERE IS NO HELP OVER TWO MONTHS ON EITHER PROBLEM. I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT? CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE ME SOME INSTRUCTIONS?

TAKATA RECALL. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR AND HALF SINCE TOYOTA INFORMED ME THAT I SHOULDN'T ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE IN THE FRONT SEAT OF MY VAN. YOU CAN IMAGINE THE INCONVENIENCE THIS HAS CAUSED!!! NOW THEY SAY THERE IS A SOLUTION BUT THE TOYOTA DEALERS CLAIM THEY DON'T HAVE THE AIR BAGS AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL GET THEM. MY FAMILY IS NOT SAFE IN MY VEHICLE. HOW LONG SHOULD I HAVE TO DEAL WITH THEIR INCOMPETENCE AND DISREGARD FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY?

2013 TOYOTA SIENNA MINIVAN THE POWER DOORS NO LONGER CLOSE AND OPEN PROPERLY, THEY ESSENTIALLY STICK, AND WE HAVE TO MANUALLY GET OUT, AND SLAM IT SHUT WITH GREAT FORCE. THE CAR DOOR OPENED ONCE WHILE I WAS DRIVING. MY CHILD ON THAT SIDE WAS WEARING A SEATBELT, I PULLED OVER, AND HAD TO GET OUT TO SHUT THE DOOR WITH GREAT FORCE. FOR A LONG PERIOD, TOYOTA DIDN'T HAVE A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN CALLING THE DEALERSHIP REGULARLY TO SEE IF THE "FIX" HAD ARRIVED. FINALLY, IN AUGUST I WAS TOLD THAT IT HAD, AND THAT THE SOONEST THEY COULD FIX MY CAR WAS DECEMBER 27!!! I HAVE TOLD THEM THAT I PAID FOR A FEATURE, TO HAVE POWER DOORS WHICH BOTH WORKED AND DIDN'T POSE A SAFETY LIABILITY. I HAVE ASKED FOR EITHER A LOANER CAR, OR COMPENSATION. THEIR RESPONSE HAS BEEN THAT THEY APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE, BUT THAT THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO GIVE ME ANOTHER CAR, OR COMPENSATE ME. I HAVE FOUR CHILDREN, ONE OF WHOM IS SPECIAL NEEDS.IN ORDER TO ENSURE SAFETY, I HAVE HAD TO DISABLE THE POWER FEATURE. I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH THE POWER FEATURE BECAUSE IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE RELY ON. I FEEL THAT I SPENT MONEY ON SOMETHING THAT IS DEFECTIVE, AND A SAFETY LIABILITY, AND WE ARE BEING PENALIZED, AS OPPOSED TO THE COMPANY ASSURING OUR SAFETY AND SATISFACTION.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE WAITED MONTHS FOR TOYOTA TO FIX THIS, WITH NO ACTION. THE RECALL FOR SIDE-PANEL SIENNA DOORS HAS ALSO NOT BEEN ADDRESSED.

I MET AN ACCIDENT WHEN A CAR (AT SPEED AROUND 65 MPH) CROSSING THE RED LIGHT COMING FROM MY RIGHT HIT MY CAR AT MY RIGHT FRONT AND NONE OF THE SRS BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WE WERE 4 PASSENGERS AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT AND WE ALL HAD MINOR INJURIES. ALL THE SRS BAGS FOR OTHER CAR HAS BEEN DEPLOYED THAT HIT MY CAR. I AM REALLY CONCERNED WE ALL 4 WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED AND IT HAS BEEN CONSIDERED AS THE FATAL ACCIDENT BY POLICE REPORT.
