"TAKATA RECALL" I PURCHASED THIS CAR BECAUSE OF THE OPTIONS. ONE BEING THE PASSENGER SEAT CAN BE ADJUSTED FOR MY HANDICAP PASSENGER. SINCE JULY 2016 I HAVE NOT BEEN USING THIS FEATURE DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF IT BEING HAZARDOUS IF IT WAS TO INFLATE. BUT MY HANDICAP PASSENGER FINDS IT DIFFICULT TO ACCESS THE CAR'S BACKSEAT.. MAY CAN BE DONE TO HAVE THIS BE PUT ON A PRIORITY LIST. THIS CAR ALSO NEEDED TO BE REPAIR FOR THE OTHER RECALL INVOLVING THE HOOD LOCK AND CATCH. LUCKILY THE ACCIDENT WAS NOT FATAL. BUT I WAS WITHOUT A CAR FOR 2 MONTHS. SO, THIS IS MY COMPLAINT . *TR
