39 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/30/2017

Toyota has issue a "important safety recall" for my 2009 Corolla in January 2017. In the notice, Toyota recommends not carrying passengers in the front seat as there is a risk of injury or even death if its faulty takata airbag is deployed. It's been nine months since Toyota detected this problem. I called my Toyota dealer in bethesda, MD, and was informed that a remedy is still not available. Not being able to carry a passenger in the front seat is a big inconvenience. I need a solution for this problem. I would appreciate NHTSA's guidance on how to deal with this situation. Can I request Toyota to replace my vehicle or buy my vehicle back? should I have the faulty airbag replaced elsewhere and request Toyota to cover the expense? thank you in advance for any guidance/assistance you can provide.

44 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/16/2017

Takata recall - we received a safety recall notice several months ago. Soon after, we called a local dealership to schedule the recall repair. On the call, the dealership told us they are out of parts and would contact us when the parts are in. About two or three months later, we still had not heard from the dealership, so we called back but were told the same thing. Another two or three months later, which is today, we called back and were told the same thing yet again. I receive a safety recall notice (which by the way takes away a part of the utility of the vehicle by recommending that no one rides in the passenger front seat), but receive no help from Toyota in addressing it. The dealership defers any and all responsibility to the manufacturer Toyota corporate. At this point, we feel very inadequately assisted with this recall.

Takata recall for my Toyota Corolla was issued in January 2017 and there is still no remedy available to fix it. This is a very dangerous matter and I feel there should be a remedy immediately.

58 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/04/2017

Takata recall I was advised in January not to drive our car due to a recall of the airbags and the potential for death from them deploying. (nhsta recall number 17v006) it has now been 7 months without a remedy. This is my family's only vehicle and we must use it for daily living needs. We fear daily that the airbags will endanger myself, my wife, or our children and we do not have the wealth or luxury to buy another car or use a taxi for all our daily living needs. We are requesting that a remedy be forced immediately upon the manufacturer even if it is simply a removal of the airbags and propellant. Lethal airbags are a greater hazard than use of seatbelts in a car with no airbags at all. Please offer a solution immediately or inform us of how the manufacturer will pay for a replacement car that can be safely used or be held liable for the cost of the current car toward a safe replacement vehicle.

Takata recall this is taking far too long to get replaced. Toyota has informed me that they need to replace the air bag (which could kill me, I live in the south and it's the area most likely to have faulty airbags as I understand it). I understand the huge undertaking this airbag recall involves for all car companies including Toyota but at what point will this faulty deadly equipment ever be replaced? a year? five? is there even a point if a recall takes so long the car dies of old age first?.
