“Takata recall airbag warning light came on while driving on highway. Had diagnostic scan ran and found code for squib cable or clock spring is bad. Car is only five years old with a little over 60k miles. This cable is manufacturer built for this specific van and cost almost $700! I came in for a recall on my takata passenger airbags and wound up dropping more money! I have waited for almost a week for recall. Now I'm waiting longer for this replacement.”

“Nothing happened to the vehicle, but north hollywood Toyota refused to replace the airbags ( after waiting in their service department for 5 hours) because they said we 'altered' the vehicle.
