2008 Lexus ES Air bags Problems

“My driver side door was hit by someone going approximately 40 MPH as I turned a corner going 5 MPH. The impact threw me approximately 100 feet into a block wall and not one single airbag deployed. My head broke the driver door window....updated 07/30/15”

“In an accident in 2012, a car impacted this Lexus from right side and the Lexus shifted over the curb and hit the road side light post. The front driver side airbag exploded but instead of protecting people from injury, it damaged my wife's right knee badly. The knee bone was fractured and she had three surgeries in hospital. She had been on bed for half year before recovery. Now she still can't walk normally and feel pain from her knee.”

“car was recalled for faulty air bags.i have tried numerous times to speak with someone,always with the same result-i am transferred 2 or 3 times and then i am promised a call back.i have not received a call back as of 6/20/2022.i think the first time i called was over a year ago.i am sure i called at least 4 times and spent many hours on hold being transferred.i have other things to do than sit on hold.i would like the problem fixed.”

“Takata recall: received the recall notice in may 2016. Told not to use passenger seat and it is now november 22, 2016 with no remedy available yet. I blame takata but am very frustrated that this very serious recall has not been corrected yet. I don't let anyone sit in the passenger seat and we are in texas and supposedly going to be in the first group receiving the fix.”

“Takata recall. We recieved notice of recall july 2016. It's now 6 months later, without any additional notice. This is an older model car and we live in hot florida. We know this is a high risk car for this defect. We are afraid to use it for threat of death to the passenger. Please contact us immediately with information as to getting this problem rectified. Thank you much.”
