“My wife was at a red light waiting for the light to change when she was hit on the driver side front fender and tire area . No air bag deployed there is over 8,000 dollars in damages the other driver was moving 35+ MPH at impact so now along with the whiplash and shoulder bruises and seat belts cuts there mental damage she feel the vehicle is not safe and is afraid to drive it when repaired in closing I feel at the speed of travel on impact the air bag should have deployed.”

“The undercarriage of my truck is so rusted, that parts are starting to fail. I can not install new tires on the truck at this point until $3000 of rust-damaged parts are replaced and possible frame replaced. I was told that the damage is so extensive, the costs outweigh the repairs, and that in the near future the truck will not be driveable.”

“My vehicle is the subject of a recall by the manufacturer ( your # 14v604 ) for more than a year now and I have heard nothing from Toyota. I filed a complaint with your office several weeks ago and have heard nothing. How can a manufacturer be allowed to take more one year to propose a remedy to defect that involves the safety of the vehicle?”

NHTSA complaint #10811365, filed 2015-12

“No incident to report, but a complaint about the approach being taken by Toyota to remedy the rear suspension problem described in their safety recall #csj. Their plan is to adjust / tighten the rear lower suspension arm , then seal it with epoxy, thus making it no longer adjustable. This would preventy any future rear wheel adjustments / alignments, thus creating a new safety hazard. All over the country , the roads are in bad shape ; I have my vehicles re-aligned at least once a year . I am not interested in having Toyota fix my car so that I can't get it re-aligned. …”
