NHTSA Complaint #10507153 — 2003 TOYOTA COROLLA

TOOK MY CAR INTO TOYOTA DEALER JIM COLEMAN TOYOTA - BECAUSE OF THE 2003 SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE (ECM) SAFETY RECALL NOTICE THAT I RECEIVED 2 WEEKS AGO, MADE AN APPOINTMENT 2 DAYS AGO WITH THE DEALER FOR THIS RECALL - SAID TO COME IN TODAY AT 2:00 PM FOR THE REPAIR. ONE HOUR AND 45 MINUTES LATER - FIX WAS NOT COMPLETED BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT TOYOTA CORPORATION ONLY ALLOWS FOR 12 SUB-WIRE HARNESS (FILTERS) TO BE INSTALLED EACH DAY AT EACH DEALER THROUGH OUT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THEY DID NOT THAT THE PART AND TOLD ME AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SERVICE THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART - BUT STILL NEEDED TO CHECK MY CAR TO SEE IF IT NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THEY WILL HAVE THE PART TOMORROW AND WILL FIX TOMORROW - HOPEFULLY. SO MY COMPLAINT IS WHY DOES TOYOTA NOT SEND THE PARTS TO THE DEALERS TO FIX THIS SAFETY RECALL AND WHAT WILL THE NHTSA DO ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WITH NO PARTS FROM TOYOTA TO FIX THE PROBLEM - ONLY 12 PER DAY PER DEALER? ALSO I DON'T NO IF THIS IS RELATED BUT THE PASSENGER DOOR LOCK DOESN'T WORK - WHEN IT RAINS IT MIGHT OR NOT WORK - PROBLEM OCCURRED IN 2005 AND UNTIL THIS DAY - RIGHT AFTER WARRANTY ENDED ON THE CAR? LIKE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT IN THE RIGHT PASSENGER DOOR - NOT SURE IF IT IS RELATED? *TR
