| Description of the problem | Air bag recall. Alan jay toyota removed original air bag because of recall then replace air gab with a used salvage air bag. After i complained to manager, they tried to clean up air bag cover so it would match dash. They couldn't get clean or remove the sticky tacky substance on cover. They said it was a new air bag and that was the way they come or must of gotten dirty installing. I said i don't believe that explanation so they said they would order a new air bag. On a follow up call to get new air bag replacement they say now they want to clean it up again and paint to match dash color. The photos are after they cleaned air bag cover and said it was brand new. I don't feel this is the way the air bag recall was intended so therefore i am complaining. |
