Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problems of the 2011 Lexus ES350

Takata recall/no Lexus remedy available due to the fact that Lexus had no plan in place to handle the air bag recall and I did not want to be behind the wheel of a ticking time bomb, I felt that it was in my best interest to trade in/sell my Lexus. I ended up trading my Lexus instead of selling it because I had to inform any perspective buyer of the pending recall and what it entailed. I ended up trading for a 2014 Toyota camry se and in doing so cost myself approximately $2000. 00 to $2500. 00 because I did not get the true value for the trade in which was listed between $18,000 - $18,500 in all of the recognized appraisal companies I checked and had to settle for a $16,000. 00 trade in value due to the recall notice still affecting my Lexus. Nhtsa recall number 17v006 recall date: January 9, 2017 manufacturer recall number: g2g remedy: Lexus is currently preparing the remedy for this condition and will provide additional information as it becomes available. The remedy, when available, will consist of the replacement of the airbag inflator or the airbag assembly, depending on the vehicle model. Recall status: recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available.

Takata inflators no remedy one year later!!!.

Takata recall we have not yet been notified as of August 27, 2016 by Lexus that the air bag inflator should be replaced.

Takata recall. Excessive delay in repairing inflators. Can't sell car without recall being repaired. Can't even drive my wife in the front seat.

Takata recall - front passenger airbag inflator defect produced by takata. Major recall on most Lexus cars and hasn't heard back from dealers/manufacturer yet.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2011 Lexus Es350. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 16v34000 (air bags) for the frontal passenger air bag inflator. The parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

"takata recall". On July 10, 2016 I received a recall in the mail from Lexus (torrance, CA) about the takata front passenger airbag inflator. The recall notice goes on to say "until the remedy becomes available, we recommend that you do not operate the vehicle with an occupant in the front passenger seat". I am writing these comments on December 29, 2016. So it's been 5 months since I've received the recall notice. I've been in contact with my local Lexus dealer and well as Lexus in torrance , CA and neither one can give my any time table on when the repairs can be made. My wife refuses to sit in the rear seat of the car because it is not as comfortable as the passenger front seat, nor is the rear seat heated (which is one of the main reasons she likes the car -- she has back pain problems). So what I now have is a car that cost me $41,000 (cash) that I can hardly use. I feel there should be some compensation for this inconvenience, but conversations with the local Lexus dealership as well as Lexus, torrance, CA have been extremely unsuccessful. I should add that over the past few years, I have purchased from Lexus/toyata 5 brand new cars. I did this as a private citizen, not as a business purchase.
