Took vehicle to dealer in miami for srs recall, light came on about 6 month earlier, advisor told me they replace srs control unit, but light still on and airbag are not operational, i was told probably a spiral cable needs to be replace at my expense and that is not covered. i see a lot of this same problem happening on corollas spiral cable failure. toyota is not addressing this issue which makes srs system inoperative then what is the point of all the srs recall. this issues needs to be address

Had 2 airbag recalls completed at dealership-airbag light on dashboard was still on when jobs were completed--i was told it would cost $105 to 'diagnose' the airbag system is not safe....i should not be charged to diagnose and repair system that is faulty

Takata recall. received a mailing to go to a website: www.autoairbagsettlement.com to fill out the online form & submit or mail it. there was no form online. got someone name nancy on chat who gave me a run around. i want to file a claim and be part of the settlement. toyota service installed sub wire harness and replaced srs ecu, 1 sensor assy, air bag, 1 harness air bag.

Hi, i got recalled airbag for my car, 2003 toyota corolla, i took to the dealer they fixed air bag recalled. but after two months air bag red light on, still on now, then i talked to the dealer again they are charging me to check air bag light $175.00. please advice me what do i do?? thank you !!!

Takata recall i have had my airbag inflator replaced, so that my airbag will not inflate unexpectedly. but my main concern now is with the airbag. it is a safety hazard. i have a daughter that rides in the front with me. nobody is taking care of the airbag itself. there are metal fragments in those airbags, and if i am in an accident those fragments will come shooting out of those bags which will result in serious injury and possibly death. it has happened to others. what is toyota going to do about the airbags.

Upon getting the ecu recall taken care of for my vehicle, i was told that my air bag indicator dash light was lit because of error code b1181 which, i was told by the toyota service representative, is caused by a worn spiral cable. he informed me that this problem could potentially cause my air bags to not deploy in the event of a crash. earlier that day, i had the spiral cable recall remedied on my 2008 toyota yaris. this is inconsistent and dangerous to fix a problem in one vehicle and not in another. i'm asking that the spiral cable recall be extended to all applicable vehicles.

Takata recall i had a recall to get airbag fixed, took to dealer, and was supposedly fixed. after a few weeks the light came back on; took back to dealer, they wanted a lot of money to check it out and fix it again. i don't have, i am a disabled veteran on a fixed income. the light has been on for about 2 years.

Takata recall--i have tried repeatedly to schedule an appointment with a toyota dealership to have my airbag replaced. i can never get an answer. i have replied several times to the toyota safety recall resolution team at 1-888-312-5994. they also have not been able to get an answer and they've advised me to call the dealerships directly. the last attempts were made this morning and the resolution team suggested i just drive to the dealership to make my appointment since they will not answer the phone. why is this so inconvenient? why can't toyota dealerships answer phones to make appointments and make these changes? how can i get this repair done in a timely and convenient fashion?

Takata recall i've been hit with this car several times in vehicle accidents and no air bags pop out at alll

Takata recall all dealers i contacted have a "at least one month, likely two month" waiting list for this recall repair. considering the notice states "until the remedy is performed, we recommend that you do not operate the vehicle with an occupant in the front passenger seat," the time frame seems excessive. they all noted it was due to a delay in receiving the parts.

Takata recall i'm not confident that toyota is adequately solving the airbag issue as i've received multiple recalls for the same or similar issues. during the initial recall i discussed with toyota that they should replace the airbags if there is any concern over quality. they did not do that and stated that after inspection i was not affected. since then i've received more recalls for the same issue. i'm concerned about my safety and the resale value of my car, both of which toyota has put at serious risk. i do not believe they are taking this issue seriously nor attempting to solve it in a timely and proper manner.

I took my car for a airbag recall. my airbag light was on prior to recall. i really don't know if this fixed, because light is still on. from what i heard my airbag won't even work with the light being on . call someone on toyota and the said it would an extra charge to have it diagnosed. shouldn't the problem have been fix when i took it for the recall because of a defective airbag.

Toyota has issued me a safety recall notice indicating that the passenger-side airbag could cause serious injury or death. they have warned me not to have anyone in the front passenger seat, yet they have not provided any details about replacement parts or timeline - other than to say that it will happen sometime in the future. this is not a solution, nor is it helpful.

Srs light came on, manual says take it to the dealer. the dealer told me that the spiral cable needs to be replaced and that the air bag will not work until this repair is completed. this seems to be the same problem for the 1.3 million vehicles of the 2006-2010 recall for the same part.
