    Toyota instructed me not to allow an occupant in the passenger seat until the airbag is repaired, rendering the vehicle useless for me. I can't even sell the vehicle due to the recall. I need to travel in a high humidity area for an extended period of time, but they have ignored my requests for airbag repair.
