1 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 04/07/2016

I received my first notice from Toyota last year, 6-8 month ago, to give notice for a recall on my front driver airbag inflator. I contacted my local Toyota dealer in grapevine and after explaining the situation, I was told they would order the part and contact me when it was in. 6 to 8 month have gone by and another reminder from Toyota, torrance, CA about the same issue was sent to me. Following I called my grapevine dealership and they said the part was in. I needed to check my schedule and I called they back 2 days later to set up an appointment. Then, I was informed that my part was never ordered in the first place and that they did not have any airbag inflators on stock. I have now made an appointment with Toyota of lewisville to resolve this issue even though Toyota of grapevine is only a mile from my house.

2 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 10/10/2015

In early October 2015 after receiving front driver airbag inflator recall called my dealer autonation Toyota winter park, FL and tried to make appointment to replace airbag. They indicated that they had not gotten the parts as of yet but would call me back when they received same. On December 5, 2015 called them again and was told that they have not gotten the replacement airbags but would call me when same was received. They did not know when they would be receiving the airbag replacement. This is unacceptable on a recall. What can I do?.

3 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 05/13/2015

Toyota sent out safety recall notice on 13 may 2015 about the front driver airbag inflator, until today the 25 June 2015 the remedy is still not available. I am concerned about my own safety driving this car and/or the road safety. Since it is the driver's airbag that has problem, I highly demand to have all the 2004-2005 model year Rav4 collected back to Toyota for a full check up or replacement.
