WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. WE HAVE A FAMILY OF 5 AND CAN'T LET SOMEONE RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. THIS HAS GONE ON TOO LONG. WHEN WILL "REMEDY BE AVAILABLE"?

"TAKATA RECALL" VISITED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN METAIRIE, LA TO HAVE RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. THEY SAID THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THEY WERE READY TO FIX PROBLEM. MY WIFE AND I ARE SENIOR CITIZENS AND ARE AFRAID TO SIT AS A PASSENGER OF OUR OWN CAR. WHY IS THIS TAKING SO LONG. OVER A YEAR SINCE WE RECEIVED NOTICE. CAN WE DEMAND THE USE OF A SIMILAR LOANER CAR? PLEASE HAVE THIS COMPLAINT CHECKED. THANKS

TAKATA RECALL: I TOOK MY CAR TO LEXUS 5 MONTHS AGO AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE A FIX SHORTLY. NOW SOMEONE WAS KILLED BY AN AIRBAG NOT FAR FROM WHERE WE LIVE. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT EVEN ONLY ONE DEATH IS SUFFICIENT TO DEMAND A RECALL, AND IF THEY CAN'T THEN THEY SHOULD DISABLE THE SYSTEM UNTIL THEY CAN.

TAKATA RECALL ALTHOUGH IT IS ABOUT 4 MONTH SINCE THIS RECALL AND ISSUE WAS REPORTED THERE IS NO WORDS YET WHEN THIS ISSUE WILL BE RESOLVED. WE ARE A FAMILY OF 5 AND HAVE TO USE THE FRONT SEAT, BUT ACCORDING TO THE LETTER WE HAVE RECEIVED IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO SIT ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON A FEW DAYS AGO. PLEASE, ADVISE.

TAKATA RECALL -- LEXUS ADVISED IN PERSON, AND VIA PHONE, IT IS DANGEROUS AND NOT RECOMMENDED FOR A PASSENGER TO OCCUPY THE PASSENGER SEAT WHICH WILL ACTIVATE THE AIR BAG AND CREATE AN UNSAFE CONDITION. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO OPERATE MY VEHICLE FOR PERSONAL AND BUSINESS USE, WHILE HAVING 4 PEOPLE IN THE CAR WITH MY FAMILY AND THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND LEXUS SHOULD PROVIDE ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION TO ME AT NO COST SINCE I CANNOT SAFELY OPERATE MY VEHICLE WITH MY FAMILY IN IT.

TAKATA RECALL AND ECU. MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON NOT REGISTERING THE PASSENGER SEAT WHEN SOMEONE SITS IN IT. NO OE RARELY SITS IN THAT SEAT, THE TIME TE LIGHT CAME ON NOONE WAS IN IT. THE CAR WAS STILL. WENT TO LEXUS DEALER COST ME 450 FOR THEM TO CALIBRATE IT. STILL ISSUE STATES IT THE ECU BEING FAULTY AND IT COST 2100 TO FIX, FOR A SENSOR THATS CRAZY, THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE, THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL TOO. PAY TOO MUCH FOR A LEXUS TO HAVE FAULTY PART ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS MODEL HAS HAD OVER 5 RECALLS IN THE LAST 10 YEARS SINCE THE CAR WAS MADE RIDICULOUS, THIS SHOULD BE A LEXUS REPAIR NOT CAR PURCHASER.

TAKATA RECALL - "PASSENGER" AIRBAG MALFUNCTION - LEXUS SENT A LETTER STATING THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IF DEPLOYED EXPLODE AND METAL FRAGMENTS CAN INJURE RIDERS AND CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE OR DEATH TO THE PASSENGER. I DRIVE FOR LIFT AND REPORTED TO THEM ON 7/27/16 THAT I CAN NO LONGER RIDE A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT, THEREFORE THEY NEED TO REDUCE MY PASSENGER CAPACITY FROM 4 TO 3. LYFT DEACTIVATED MY DRIVING PRIVILEGES ON 8/5/16 STATING ALL DRIVERS MUST BE ABLE TO CARRY 4 OR 6 PASSENGERS. I WAS APPROVED A CLASSIC DRIVER WHICH CARRIES 4 PASSENGERS). I CONTACTED LEXUS AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD LOOK INTO GETTING ME A RENTAL. HOWEVER, WHEN I HEARD BACK FROM THEM ON THURSDAY 8/12/16 FOR THE 2ND TIME INFORMING ME THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO SECURE A RENTAL VEHICLE AND THAT NO CAR RENTAL CO. WILL RENT A VEHICLE TO BE USED AS A TAXI AND THAT THERE ISN'T ANYTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME. THE REPRESENTATIVE ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT REIMBURSE ME LOSS WAGES. SO FAR I AM OUT OF 7 DAYS PAY. LIFT PROVIDE ME THE ADDITIONAL INCOME I NEED FOR MY COST OF LIVING AS I LIVE ALONE. THE LOSS OF INCOME HAVE ALREADY CAUSED ME FINANCIAL HARDSHIP. MY ESTIMATED MONTHLY EARNINGS HAVE BEEN BETWEEN $800.00 & $1300.00+ SINCE I STARTED DRIVING FOR LYFT.
