RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE THAT MY CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND THAT TOYOTA RECOMMENDS THAT I HAVE THEIR REMEDY PERFORMED IMMEDIATELY. I CALLED AS SOON AS THE DEALERSHIP OPENED ON A SATURDAY AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD CALL BACK MID WEEK BECAUSE THEY ARE REALLY BUSY. IF MY CAR IS IMMEDIATELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE, WAITING UNTIL MID WEEK TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR AGAIN IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.
TAKATA RECALL. I FEEL THAT TOYOTA IS TAKING TOO LONG TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I THINK THAT IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT THEY EXPECT PASSENGERS TO SIT IN THE BACK SEAT FOR NO TELLING HOW LONG. IF NOTHING ELSE THEY SHOULD GIVE OUT LOANER VEHICLES UNTIL THEY FIX THE AIRBAG PROBLEM!
