Steering Wheel Problems of Toyota Camry - part 2

Nhtsa campaign id number: 99v307000. . . . Regarding ssc-x06 1995-1998 japan built Toyota Camry steering wheel set nut safety recall - I scheduled an appointment through Toyota customer service (1-800-331-4331) for repair according to the aforementioned notice. I called on 28 June'01 (Toyota service reference # 200106280784) and Toyota scheduled me for service with michaels' Toyota of bellevue, wa, 120 116th av. Ne, bellevue, wa 98004 (425-455-9500) in the next few days. But I didn't get a call back from micahel's Toyota for the service date. As a follow-up, I called Toyota again and they flagged a service call for micahel's toyoyta to schedule service within 24 hours. But till date, this has not happened. I haven't been called by them for scheduling a service. I took the case again with Toyota customer service and they have again notified michaels' Toyota to schedule the service. I feel I'm just wasting my time calling them up and thought of bringing the issue with NHTSA so as to make them aware that Toyota is not taking these recalls seriously and not giving enough importance to this issue. I'm quite concerned about my and my family's safety and the dealership doesn't take it as a priority - maybe because it's a free service. They're not getting paid for this and mybe considering this as a waste of time. Hope some mesaures will be taken in future so that manufacturers and dealers do not take people for a ride and follow NHTSA guidelines. P. S. I bought my car thru' kearny mesa Toyota, san diego and moved to bellevue, wa in may, that was the time when I got this recall notice and scheduled the service when I settled in my new apartment. Thank you for your time to read this message and taking any necessary actions that may deem fit. Thank you again - rakesh kapur (425-922-9680). No safety defect.
