Failure Date: 04/03/2017

"takata recall" I have had my airbag inflator replaced, so that my airbag will not inflate unexpectedly. But my main concern now is with the airbag. It is a safety hazard. I have a daughter that rides in the front with me. Nobody is taking care of the airbag itself. There are metal fragments in those airbags, and if I am in an accident those fragments will come shooting out of those bags which will result in serious injury and possibly death. It has happened to others. What is Toyota going to do about the airbags.

Failure Date: 03/01/2017

Takata recall - after I called the dealership and looked on the website there will be no remedy until Dec. 2017. So, I am not able to fully use my vehicle, but more importantly the airbag issue is dangerous for me as the driver, if the passenger airbag deploys. The mental fragments can fly and hit me or anyone in my back sit! this is a6 from the recall website part of the answer-further, NHTSA has concluded that the non-desiccated frontal takata airbag inflators do not pose an unreasonable risk to safety until they reach a certain level of propellant degradation, which is the result of time, temperature and environmental moisture, which depends on the vehicle's location. -how is Toyota 100% confident that this airbag will not deploy when someone is not sitting in the front seat? - there is unknown risk involved according to a6. -how can they guarantee fragments will not go flying and potential harm me or a passenger in the back seat ? I drive my car to work almost 2 to 3 times a week that is an hour and 15mins away and I do not feel comfortable driving this car and waiting until Dec for a remedy and I am paying for a car that I don't have a full usage of!! I think it is unreasonable and not safe to wait until then!.
