I AM BEING DENIED USE OF MY 2006 TOYOTA TUNDRA DUE TO THE EXTENDED DELAY IN REPLACING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG BECAUSE THERE IS NO OTHER SAFE PLACE MY WIFE CAN SIT IN THE VEHICLE. SO I CAN ONLY USE IT BY MYSELF FOR SHORT TRIPS TO THE STORE. FOR LONGER TRIPS I HAVE TO MAKE USE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE AND RENT A TRAILER IF I HAVE TO MOVE ANY ITEMS, THAT WE NEED TO DO ON A REGULAR BASIS. TOYOTA SHOULD STOP ITS FOOT DRAGGING IN REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PASSENGER AIR BAGS, PARTICULARLY ON VEHICLES WHERE THE PASSENGER HAS NO OTHER SAFE OPTION FOR SITTING.

RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM TOYOTA SOME TIME BACK IN REGARDS TO THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. NOTICE DOES NOT INDICATE WHEN THE REMEDY CAN BE PERFORMED, BUT DOES RECOMMEND NOT ALLOWING ANYONE TO RIDE IN THE FONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS BEYOND WORDS. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE, PUT SOME PRESSURE ON THE MANUFACTURER. IT IS THEIR PROBLEM, MAKE THEM FIX IT NOW. TELLING SOMEONE NOT TO USE A PASSENGER SEAT IN A PICKUP IS ASININE. RECALL IS PATHETIC.
