1 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 11/04/2017

My car is in the recall but I have not been notified of the solution to fix it ,every time I check the recall site it tells me they have not come up with a solution on how to fix it. I also have not received anything on it outer than that it is in the recall for the passenger side air bag recall back in Dec of 2016 or Jan 2017 don't remember when it was but is has been nearly a year. I been driving this vehicle with this potential defect I have no outer car and they have no solution yet what's the problem.

2 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/12/2017

Takata recall my passenger side air bag needs to replaced, but they say they can't fix the problem.

3 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 03/03/2017

Takata recall- I do not think it is ethical for Toyota to not have the replacement parts available in a timely manner. I received notice on 3/3/17 but there are no available parts at my local dealer. I have been advised that perhaps there will be in April. It is a burden to not be able to put someone in the passenger seat. In addition, it seems that if activating the passenger side air bag can cause metal fragments to strike the passenger the fragments could also travel and strike the driver and/or other car occupants.

4 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 02/13/2017

Takata recall I have received an "important safety recall" for my Toyota Corolla 2012 saying that there is no current remedy. Information online indicates that the airbag problem was identified January 9. There is no indication of the timeframe of a remedy, and there's no offer to disconnect the passenger airbag. The letter suggests that I not allow anyone to ride in the passenger seat until I hear from them. An offer to disconnect the passenger side airbag in the interim would have made more sense. I'll be pursuing that with a local dealership, but it should have been offered considering the danger is possible "serious injury or death. ".
