Air bag recall: i have been getting recall notices for years. I have notified toyota many times that i no longer own this vehicle!!! It was traded in to toyota of lewisville tx in october 25, 2014. This is bordering on harrassment! It is also a waste of money. I recently recieved a notice via fedex!! Please update your records. Thank you.

Takata recall my car only had it's passenger side air bag replaced. Toyota dealer said the drivers side (steering wheel) air bag, did not need replacing???? I can't find any information as to whether it should be or not. I've misplaced my work receipt, and the dealership has changed hands. So i don't know the date of the replacement of only the passenger side air bag. Please advise asap!
