Consumer Description

TOYOTA INFORMED ME OF SAFETY RECALL 15V-043. IT REQUIRES REPLACING TWO CIRCUIT BOARDS. THE CONDITION IS THAT THE CAR CAN DEPLOY THE AIRBAGS AT ANY TIME WITHOUT WARNING AND WITHOUT ANY IMPACT. TODAY, AFTER WAITING 90 DAYS THE PARTS STILL HAVE NOT ARRIVED. TOYOTA DEALER (JOSEPH AIRPORT TOYOTA) IS UNABLE TO TELL ME WHEN THEY WILL ARRIVE. TOYOTA CORPORATION IS UNABLE TO TELL ME WHERE I AM ON THE WAITING LIST. MY LOCAL DEALER TRIES TO HELP BUT THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING. THIS IS MY WIFE'S CAR AND SHE NOW REFUSES TO DRIVE IT. SHE IS AFRAID IN IT. WE NEED TO GET THIS FIXED QUICK. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE? A COMPANY LIKE TOYOTA SHOULD SURELY HAVE SOME INFORMATION THEY COULD PROVIDE REGARDING THIS PART. IT DOES NOT TAKE THREE MONTHS TO MAKE THESE PARTS!
