 Description of the problemToyota is being dishonest and scamming consumers on the safety recall for the front passenger airbag inflator module. I received a recall letter on july 22 and called local toyota dealer the same day. They set up an appointment on july 28 to take care of the recall. The letter from toyota is written to cover their negligence and liability by stating to not use the trucks passenger seat. This basically takes the vehicle out of use for many things a truck provides outside of a single driver. July 28 - the local toyota dealer tells me after 2 hours that toyota does not have the parts and i will need to come back at a later date. Again toyota has limited or removed my ability to use the vehicle as intended. No date on parts were given by toyota dealer. A july 28 call to toyota usa customer experience center yields the following - toyota states they told the dealers that parts are not available and do not know when they will be available. Toyota says the dealer should not have scheduled an appointment. Looks like toyota can not get the basics of communications down. Bottom-line - toyota is not doing the repairs, does not know when it will and vehicles have to be limited for use or not used based on the toyota "strongly recommends" liability statement to not allow passengers. Now i have to wait and hope someone from toyota contacts us when the parts are there as i have fulfilled my part to contact toyota and return the truck.
