1 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 02/18/2017

Takata inflators - my vehicle has an open recall with no known fix. So I am stuck with a vehicle that now holds no value and that I can not sell. It's worth less than owe. How can you have a recall with no known fix? that is unfair to the consumer and doesn't say good things about the Lexus name. I won't buy another Lexus ever again!.
