| Description of the problem | Takata recall. I rear ended a vehicle doing 30+ mph which in turn that vehicle hit another and that vehicle hit another. I was concerned that my airbags did not deploy and i wound up hitting my chin on the steering wheel and left elbow hit the windshield. Toyota corporate was notified and an inspector was sent out to my local toyota dealer on 3/12/18 but will not tell me anything until toyota corporate contacts me in 30-45 days. All i would want is the replacement parts and would fix it myself but i'm sure i'm in for a big "let down!". |
