TAKATA RECALL HOW MANY YEARS WILL THIS TAKE? I AM LOSING MONEY!! I CAN'T HAVE A PASSENGER!!!! I AM IN A HIGH RISK ENVIRONMENT!!!

ODO ERROR. WRENCH AND AIRBAG LIGHTS ON. TRANSMISSION WOULD BARELY MOVE CAR, EVEN WHEN REVVING ENGINE. STOPPED ON HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC. TURNED ENGINE ON/OFF SEVERAL TIMES THEN ODO WORKED, BUT TRANSMISSION BANGED REALLY HARD, THEN ENGAGED NORMALLY, AND RAN NORMALLY. HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES IN TWO WEEKS. WITH JUST 200,000 MILES, THE PTU LEAKED AND WAS REPLACED BY DEALER. AFTER ONE WEEK, THE ODO ERROR FIRS T OCCURRED. I BELIEVE THAT THE PTU REPLACEMENT MIGHT HAVE CAUSED THIS PROBLEM!

VEHICLE NOW WILL NOT DRIVE FORWARD AT ALL. WHEN WE FINALLY GOT HOME WITH OUR SON I LOOKED ONLINE TO FIND THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS TO OTHER PEOPLE.

SEEMED TO BE IN 3RD GEAR? WHEN I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, THE CAR HAD NO POWER AT ALL. TOOK FOREVER TO GET IT UP TO 20 MPH. VERY DANGEROUS AS I WAS ALMOST STUCK IN AN INTERSECTION. DOES SOMEONE NEED TO DIE BEFORE YOU RECALL THIS?

THE BRAKES ARE VERY HARD TO PRESS AND UPON "PUMPING" ALMOST COMPLETELY FAIL. FAIL LIKE PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL OR DON'T STOP! STILL PASSED INSPECTION TODAY EVEN WITH THE I THINK IT IS YOUR "BOOSTER".

MY WIFE DRIVES THIS CAR ,ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I ALSO READ THAT IT COULD COST BETWEEN $750-$1,000 FOR THE REPLACEMENT! HOW COULD THIS NOT BE A RECALL. WE HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 4 YEARS AND IT WENT BAD FAST! LIKE YESTERDAY! NO HELP FROM OUR GOV?
