NHTSA Complaint #10734413 — 2011 TOYOTA SIENNA

I HAVE PURCHASED A US TOYOTA SIENNA 2011 FROM NY WHILE BEING CANADIAN LIVING IN CANADA. SINCE MAY 2014 I HAVE RECEIVED A NOTICE ON RECALL ABOUT MY SIENNA 2011 VIN 5TDKK3DC5BS[XXX] FOR THE SPARE WHEEL E1S, NHTSA REF ID 14V273 AND SINCE THAT TIME WE HAVE HEARD NOTHING FROM TOYOTA AS OWNERS FOR THE REMEDIATION OF THIS SAFETY RECALL ( THIS APPLIES TO CANADIAN VEHICLES AS WELL). ALL WHAT THEY SAY IS TO PUT THE SPARE WHEEL IN THE TRUNK AS A TEMPORARY SOLUTION FOR NOW, AND THIS ALSO IS NOT A SAFE SOLUTION CONSIDERING THIS WHEEL AMONG PASSENGERS AND WHAT IT COULD DO IN CASE OF IMPACT. WE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN PATIENT ABOUT THIS ISSUE BUT NOT SURE WHAT WE SHOULD EXPECT FROM A MANUFACTURER IN THIS CASE AND WHAT KIND OF ROLE THE NHTSA COULD PLAY, HOW LONG IS ACCEPTABLE FOR THE NHTSA FOR A MANUFACTURER TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION TO A RECALL, DOES IT TAKE FEW FATAL ACCIDENTS OR NOT SURE WHAT REGULATES THOSE INDUSTRIES AND HOW RECALLS ARE CONTROLLED.....UPDATED 09/11/15 *BF . INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) *JS
