| Description of the problem | "takata recall" this recall has been known since may 23, 2016 yet we only received a recall notice at the beginning of january 2017,and no fix is available for the takata air bag inflators on our vehicle. (making this vehicle dangerous far worse then any vehicle without a air bag system). We purchased this vehicle for its safety , but it is not safe. And toyota has no fix for the issue.. At this time i feel considering this has been know for a long time and nothing has been done to correct the dangers associated with the vehicle, the manufacture should either correct the faulty inflators, provide safe replacement vehicles, or out right purchase the vehicles back from the owners for the owners actual purchase cost. As of january 20th 2017 no notice to correct this potentially deadly situation has been received. |
