    Maybe the airbag one is just US, I believe you spec bigger air bags over there, which may be a different manufacturer.

    I had my parking brake recall done yesterday. Had the dealer reflash the head unit for good measure. All is well!

    November 24 is Thanksgiving Day in the US. Roasted turkey is the traditional meal.

    Canada already celebrated Thanksgiving in October. The US is just much slower to celebrate. :D

    Nope - more like Cow, but different. The sausages were spicy flavoured - so they didn't actually taste like kangaroo ;) - still nice, though.

    I received both notices, airbag and parking brake cable. The Toyota dealership in Venice, FL states they will call me when the parts come in. They told me that the dealership can only order one part per day for the recall. That sounds ridiculous to me. So I have to sit and wait. They also said they will not provide a loaner car, and that I would need to wait for at least 3 hours for the work to be completed. I will have to take off from work to have this recall completed, since they won't do it on Saturdays.

    How long did it take for your parts to arrive? Just curious, since I only ordered mine on 11/28/16

    that's what i was asking the o/p. no reply. i just got my recall notice yesterday for the airbag. the original came about 6 months ago, so i'm assuming the parts are in. i haven't called yet.
