Takata recall while truck was at dealership having an electrical problem troubleshot was informed by dealership about air bag recall and that recall would be done at same time. passenger air was replaced at this time. after truck sat a dealership for extended period eventually got truck back. everything appeared normal. after several months to a year started noticing an odd appearance on the passenger air bag cover. this area began having a sticky feeling to it. placed a paper napkin on the air bag cover and had part of the napkin stick to the cover. during one of the recent heat spells with the interior of the truck reaching a high temperature discovered that the air bag cover has been spray painted to match interior color of truck. this makes that area of the dash look disgusting plus you can no longer lay an object there without it getting stuck to the dash. am able to push paint and see that original color of air bag cover is black.

I have been trying for a year to have the air bags replaced under the recall with maita toyota and folsom lake toyota dealerships in california. i just got off the phone and they parts could still take a year to come in. this is nonsense. why are they allowed to not have the parts needed to replace a dangerous situation that is their fault. why do i have to assume the risk of having my face blown off because they don't want to spend the money to make things right. as usual the corporations get away with murder while the individuals pay the price. the dealerships need to be made to make things right and get these safety recalls taken care of.
