What 590 owners told NHTSA about the 2011 Toyota Corolla Im

TAKATA RECALL: MY CAR IS BEING RECALLED DUE TO THE AIRBAGS, WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA TO GET MY CARD FIX THEIR RESPONSE WAS THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM YET. I NEED TO WAIT FOR THEM TO SEND A LETTER TO COME IN TO GET MY CAR FIXED. THIS IS A LIFE AND DEATH SITUATION! WE JUST HAVE TO WAIT???

TAKATA RECALL - MY CAR WAS RECALLED FOR AIRBAG REPLACEMENT LAST MAY (2016) AND I WAS ADVISED NOT TO HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND OUT WHEN MY CAR WILL BE REPAIRED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD, MULTIPLE TIMES THAT THE PARTS ARE UNAVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. IF THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, CAN I ASK WHAT IS BEING INSTALLED IN NEW MODELS. I BASICALLY HAVE A CAR THAT I CAN BE THE ONLY OCCUPANT WHEN THE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN.

TAKATA RECALL - I WAS NOTIFIED ON 1/16/2017 THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IN MY COROLLA HAD A RECALL WITH NO CURRENT FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THE AIRBAG IS CONSIDERED DEADLY IN THE DESCRIPTION OF THE RECALL, AND IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A MONTH SINCE I HAVE RECEIVED THIS RECALL, AND NO ACTION FROM TOYOTA. IT IS UNREASONABLE TO THINK THAT SOMEONE CAN GO WITHOUT USING THE PASSENGER SEAT FOR OVER A MONTH WITH A FAMILY AND ONLY ONE VEHICLE. AT A MINIMUM, TOYOTA SHOULD BE PROVIDING RENTAL CARS FREE OF CHARGE FOR ALL THOSE AFFECTED. IT IS ALSO UNREASONABLE TO HAVE TO WAIT THIS LONG, WHEN OTHER CAR MODELS HAVE ALREADY HAD THE TAKATA AIRBAGS FIXED. TOYOTA IS A REPUTABLE BRAND FOR A CAR, HOWEVER, GIVEN THIS SITUATION THEY HAVE PUT ME IN, I WILL RETHINK THEM IN THE FUTURE.

TAKATA RECALL : I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL FROM TOYOTA ON MAY 2016 NHTSA RECALL NO. 16V-340. FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR (ZONE A) THE PROPELLANT IN THESE INFLATORS MAY DEGRADE AFTER PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO HIGH HUMIDITY AND FLUCTUATING HIGH TEMPERATURES. SINCE I LIVE IN FLORIDA I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE PROBLEM. TOYOTA SHOULD HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM BY NOW, 10 MONTHS IS WAY BEYOND A REASONABLE TIME LIMIT.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE AND TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER WHO ADVISED THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE A"FIX"YET. THE RECALL NOTICE SUGGESTED THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT NOT HAVE A PASSENGER WITHOUT MENTIONING THAT PARTICLES COULD BLOW ELSEWHERE THROUGH THE CAR. I BOUGHT A FOUR DOOR SEDAN. TOYOTA SHOULD PAY THE DIFFERENCE IN VALUE AND ALL CARS LIKE IT SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE ROAD.

THE FIRST THING I NOTICED WAS AT LEAST TWO WEEKS AGO WHEN I COULDN'T ADJUST THE RADIO VOLUME WHILE DRIVING, THOUGHT MAYBE THERE WAS A SAFETY FEATURE THAT WOULDN'T ALLOW YOU TO DO SO IF DRIVING. TODAY WE HOPPED IN THE CAR TO DO A QUICK ERRAND AND NOTICED THE RADIO HAD NO DISPLAY ON IT. WHILE FRIEND WAS IN THE STORE TRIED TURNING THE RADIO OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN, THEN TRIED TURNING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN FINALLY TRIED PUSHING EVERY BUTTON THAT WAS RELATED TO THE RADIO. THE FIRST BUTTON WOULD TURN THE RADIO OFF THE NEXT WOULD TURN IT BACK ON AND SO ON AND SO FORTH AND THAT IS ALL THEY WOULD DO. CAME HOME AND RESEARCHED THIS TO BE A CHRONIC PROBLEM WITH LATE MODEL COROLLAS. THE FRIGHTENING THING ISN'T THAT IT ISN'T FIXABLE BUT RATHER THAT IT RECURS WITHIN ABOUT 2 YEARS TIME FROM THE FIRST TIME AND MINE IS 6 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE HAD IT 1 MONTH. IT ALSO SOUNDS LIKE MORE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS SEEM TO GET INVOLVED THE OLDER THE CAR IS. I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN AFFORD TO BUY ANOTHER USED CAR SO SOON ON WHAT I MAKE. I HOPE SOMEONE LOOKS INTO THIS SO THESE CARS AREN'T FLOODING THE RESALE MARKET. THE VEHICLE WAS BOTH STATIONARY AND MOVING AND IT WAS AT NIGHT SO THE LIGHTS WERE ON. I LIVE IN MN AND THE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 38 DEGREES. *TR

TAKATA RECALL I'VE JUST BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL BUT THERE IS NOT YET A REMEDY? THE REMEDY IS TO REPLACE THE FAULTY AIR BAG THAT COULD POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE IN MY VEHICLE. WHEN CALLING TOYOTA THEY TELL ME THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION IS TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS WITHOUT A CAR I CAN NOT WORK AND PROVIDE FOR MY FAMILY. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY SAY THERE'S NO A REMEDY AND JUST STAND BYE WITHOUT A CAR UNTIL WE MAKE A DECISION. I DON'T FEEL LIKE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH POTENTIAL FOR DEATH OR BECOMING UNEMPLOYED AND LOSING MY WAY OF LIFE IS A VERY FAIR QUESTION TO POSE TO THEIR CUSTOMERS.

TAKATA RECALL- I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF A TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL ON MY TOYOTA COROLLA IN JULY 2016. THERE HAS BEEN NO WORD FROM TOYOTA REGARDING WHEN MY AIRBAG WILL BE EXCHANGED.
