    Takata recall. This recalled was published on 9 january 2017 and it still shows a status of "incomplete with a remedy not yet available". Yet, there is a safety risk of serious injury or death. I have contacted my local service dealer and the only recommendation is that we not use the front passenger seat. This is virtually impossible if you have a family. We are also of transferring to europe on military orders in…

    Takata recall-- this remedy is taking too long to fix. I need every seat in my vehicle so the current suggestion to not have anyone sit in the front seat is not acceptable.

    Takata recall i keep getting flyers in the mail about the recall but every time i call the toyota dealership they say they can't get the replacement airbags to install in my car. What is going on? The flyers even say not to allow a passenger to sit in the front seat? How am i supposed to comply with that when this has gone on for a year now?

    Takata recall - i have not received any information on when my car will be fixed. My son uses this for college and often transports fellow students. I bought this car for this purpose and according to advice, should not allow passengers in the front seat. Toyota has not scheduled any contact with us to remedy the situation. This is now unacceptable. They should be held accountable to fix this situation immediately.

    Takata recall: airbag replacement is not being performed in a timely fashion. I'm terrified to drive my 4 runner due to possible defect. This has been a extreme hardship on my family. I have been waiting for a replacement for months. I find this situation very unfair to the vehicle owner. I cannot trade my vehicle at this time, so i'm stuck with no option but to drive the defected vehicle and take a chance on being…

    I was first one waiting at the light, traveling eastbound on butler/airport rd. When the light turned green, i proceeded through the intersection. When i was about halfway to three-quarters through the intersection, i noticed a mini cooper approaching rapidly, heading northbound on shute rd. I knew she was going to hit me, so i attempted to swerve left to avoid a high impact collision. I didn't hear her brakes until…
