Description of the problem	Received a recall notice involving passenger seat air bag shrapnel upon activation. Toyota recommend no one ride in passenger seat until repaired. After making numerous calls about followup, no solution was forthcoming. No timeline when parts will be available for repair (they don't even have any)!!! That was almost 4 mo. Ago and still no info. From toyota. I called toyota again today (10/6/2015) and the story was the same except a toyota representative did state the air bag could possibly activate at any time without impact. Toyota stated in their recall that the shrapnel could cause fatal injuries to occupants!!!! I would like to know what is being done to protect the citizens who own these potential death traps????? This has been known for months but no one seems to care!!!! I did read that toyota was offering 35$ for rental car services but nothing was said about that in my recall letter. And that the government had sued toyota over this. But what about us, the owners of these potential time bombs??? Who's helping us???????? Thank you
