Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL. MY COMPLAINT IS WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THE TURBO CHARGER FOR MY VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND THE ENTIRE CABIN FILLED WITH SMOKE THAT I HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. I HAD TO ROLL DOWN ALL THE WINDOWS BECAUSE THE IT WAS SO BAD AND THOUGHT THE ENGINE WAS ON FIRE. THIS IS NOT SAFE TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN. I'VE GOOGLED THIS AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON REPLACEMENT HAPPENING TWICE. THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BECAUSE I'VE KEPT MY MAINTENANCE UP AND JUST DID OIL AND FLUIDS CHANGED AND HAVE TO HAVE IT DONE AGAIN BECAUSE THE OIL LEAKED INTO THE TURBO CHARGER. THIS IS COSTING ME $2,460.00 FOR REPAIR AND DON'T THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS FATAL PROBLEM. I EXPECTING COVERAGE ON THIS AND WILL BE CONTACTING MY LAWYER.
