Description of the problem	Received recall notice. Phoned local toyota service dealer and was told the part was on national backorder. Put on a list for call back. In the meantime, i am not supposed to let a passenger ride in the front seat! Absurd, i purchased the vehicle for driving and passengers. I want to request an answer on what recourse i have to get a vehicle that can transport my family safely, while waiting. We have been in an accident in the past -not this recall- but the airbag on passenger side caused more damage, and could have been devistating damage to our teen in the passenger seat. Cannot take this chance again, but have to use my car for transporting my family! This particular service phone answerer was very unconcerned about the details of this recall. I do not want to have to take this further than here, but feel very cheated each time i have to find alternative vehicle for my teen children to ride in. And spouse is supposed to let me chauffeur him, let's get real! This is an issue!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
