The air bag light came on in my car. i brought it to the dealership where they identified the problem as the pls p&a center airbag sensor and explained that the malfunction was the same as in other cars that had been recalled. because it was the same malfunction, i believe that mine and other similar vehicles should be covered by the recall to prevent harm to other drivers.

Takata recall. car was brought in for the recall in august 2018. told by the dealership that the entire module needs to be replaced (because the sticker on the airbag was missing from a car that is over 12 years old) and the parts necessary were on back order & it would take 6 months to come in. in december, i was told there were around 205 people in front of me on the list for the same part. i've contacted toyota's corporate office multiple times with no eta, and very little customer service in trying to get this resolved. as of february 2019, i still do not have my car fixed and it's sitting at the dealership while i"m forced to drive a loaner that i have to renew every 30 days. i called toyota's regional office a few weeks ago and was told that this may take years before the parts are in and ready because the parts have to go through toyota testing and the government. i was originally told this would be a 3 hour fix, now it's been over 6 months and there's still no end in sight when the parts necessary will be received while my car rots from disuse on the toyota dealership grounds. the only reason i brought my car in was because toyota was hassling me about the recall and now they may never have the parts in to fix it (at least where i can still drive my car). this is absolutely unacceptable that parts are not being produced to fix these issues that toyota knows about in a timely manner.

Completed, however, the car was in an accident following this repair and the airbags did not deploy. the car flipped and was smashed completely in the front and on the left side. it appears that this is a crash where the airbags should have deployed. the car was in motion on a rural street and lost control when the front tire got caught in a rut on the side of the road.

I recently had to take my car into the local toyota dealership because my airbag light came on and would not go off. i told the service rep that i had just recently had brought it in on the recall issued regarding the airbag defect. i was told it would cost me $131 just to diagnosis it. i argued that it should not cost me anything since there was initial issues with the airbag. i called the recall people and they agreed with me. i took my car in and was told by the tech that the problem was related to the spiral coil cable in the airbag. he said it was a nonrelated issue, which i argued how could it not be if its related to the airbag. he told me that my airbag may or may not deploy because of the spiral coil. i fail to see how the 2 are not interconnected. if one part of the airbag manufacturing was defected then it only reasons that other parts of the airbag could also be defective. since they both are related to deployment. if the manufacture could produce one defective part or use defective material why could it not be reasoned that other parts are defective too. the manufacture should be concerned with public and individual safety not profit.! upon further investigation i found others are having the same issues. they made and expensive product at the cost of the consumer (lives, money, time, and safety).all airbag issues should be included in this recall until the proper issues is identified. maybe the sensor and the spiral coil are connected in proper deployment. this needs to be investigated asap and another recall issued before more injuries and deaths occur. consumer safety should be number 1 priority in fixing and resolving this issue. i scared to drive my car but i have to.!!! not knowing if the airbag will or will not deploy in the event of accident or if i hit a pot hole is just to risky. toyota should fix all airbag complaints and issues without cost!!!

Air bag light came on and would not go off. had to have the spiral cable replaced. it was not part of a recall on this particular vehicle. note: it should have been recalled and replaced by toyota.

tl* the contact owns a 2006 toyota corolla. the contact stated that the while driving at approximately 30 mph, the passenger's side frontal air bag deployed inadvertently. the contact was not injured. a police report was filed. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. the vehicle was repaired at rockland toyota located at: 618 new york route 303, blauvelt, ny 10913, (845) 367-4219, under the nhtsa campaign number: 15v28500 (air bags) in december of 2016. lia toyota of rockland was notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 150,000. the vin was not available.

Recall notice was received in march 2016. i contacted toyota santa monica (they are the closest location to home and most convenient for work) and was told they would call me to let me know if the part was in. two weeks passed and i called again. i was told they had to order the part and would get a call when it came in. two months later, i call again and was informed the part was backordered 4-6 weeks and would once again receive a call to let me know when i can bring my vehicle in. admittedly, the notice was forgotten as i waited. i found the recall notice and contacted toyota santa monica on june 29, 2017 in hopes of bringing in my vehicle on july 5th. i was told they had one part in stock, but if i want to bring my car in at that time they would have to place an order. because of my work schedule the 5th was the best time for me. i was told that they will then have to order the part, but even with the holiday they should get it in by the 5th and they would call me to let me know the part was in fact in so i could bring in my vehicle. i called again on july 14th and spoke to the parts department of toyota santa monica. not only was my name and number not in the system, there was never any orders placed under my name. i was then informed that they had plenty of parts in stock. i was transferred to the service center to make an appointment where no one answered. july 17th, i get a hold of the service center for toyota santa monica where i was once again informed they have plenty of those parts in stock and over a year later i finally have an appointment. i had called four times and four times i was told an order was placed. not only did i never receive any returned calls, but the part was never ordered under my name.

On my third clock switch in my steering column it is the device that feeds power to the air bag for the driver side air bag it seem that if the car detects a short or interruption in the electrical line it will light up the dash light . for me this has happen 3 time i am at 95,000. mileage. replacing the clock spring switch fixes it but the part is nether a switch or a spring go figure. hope this helps

Airbag

Takata recall - my airbag light while driving also will come on when i first start the car. it started on several days turned off for a few days and came on again. this happens over & over.

Takata recall.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 toyota corolla. while the vehicle was stationary, the air bag indicator illuminated without warning. the failure occured only after the vehicle was repaired per an unknown recall, in which the air bag module was replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 67,358.

I am upset that toyota corporation is instructing their dealers to not provide loaners or free rentals to use during the actual airbag replacement. they expect you to wait 4 or more hours at the dealership or inconvenience an additional person to drive you to and from your work or home, etc. cox toyota in burlington, nc actually had the nerve to suggest i use my own money to rent one of their cars!.i refuse to be inconvenienced due to their negligence. it isn't like they have cars sitting around.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 toyota corolla. after the vehicle was started, the passenger side air bag warning indicator illuminated. the contact stated that the light went off moments later. in addition, when the heating system was activated, a burning odor emitted into the vehicle from the ventilation system. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was unknown.

Nhtsa recall number: 15v285 please be advised that jack taylor's alexandria toyota, located on 750 jefferson davis hwy, alexandria, va 22305, has failed to replace and remedy the front passenger air bag inflators for my 2006 toyota corolla and misled me regarding the availability of said part associated with toyota's safety recall. the first initial appointment made on november 3, 2016 was scheduled for november 11, 2016. after waiting six hours at the dealership, i was informed that the dealership did not have the parts for my vehicle. consequently, i was advised by service consultant gerald gerdes (hereafter 'jerry') that the part would arrive at jack taylor's in roughly estimated four to six weeks. (see attachment titled 'e-mail appointment confirmation 1'). thereafter, i contacted jack taylor's via phone on december 21, 2016 to check the status of said part's arrival. as such, i was informed that said part had indeed arrived at jack taylor's whereby the toyota representative advised to schedule an appointment, and thus i scheduled my second appointment on december 23, 2016 for 1:00 pm. (see attachment titled 'e-mail appointment confirmation 2'). notwithstanding, jerry contacted me via phone and informed me about three and a half hours later (approximately 4:43 pm) during the december 23rd appointment that the dealership was unable to locate the part. jerry also advised me that they would attempt their best efforts to locate the part but that was to no avail. therefore, after two months and spending eleven hours under the impression that the front passenger air bag inflators were being replaced, my vehicle is still without the necessary replacement for the recall. this is especially concerning because i travel from washington, d.c. to new york city on a frequent basis. there must be some accountability for lack of good-faith and dishonesty here.

Takata recall i scheduled a repair at toyota of portland and when i arrived was told the part was on back-order and they would order it for me, waited two months and called again and the part was apparently in stock, but they couldn't schedule me for an appoint for another month. it has been 17 months since the recall. i am still waiting for a replacement. this is not a timely fashion.

I called since june, 2016 with a air bag recall and toyota is not responding .when i called, they say they will call back but never did. problem still exist.

Takata recall. i am still waiting for toyota to contact me, to repair/replace front passenger airbag system.

Takata recall- the vehicle was taken to the dealer for the airbag recall. at the time the airbag light was on constantly while the car was being driven. i advised the dealer/repair that the airbag light was on and that we had received notice of the recall. the airbag was repaired/replaced. several days later the airbag light came back on and stayed on, therefore i contacted the dealer. they advised me to bring the car back to the dealer. we have now taken it back to the same dealer and now they say it cost $110 for the assessment and $550 for the spiral cable. i feel that this issue should have been included in the airbag recall and repaired at the time the recalled part was repaired. when i called toyota customer service today to ask about the recalled air bag they made me feel as if we were in the wrong because we did not take it back immediately and that these were two separate issues. we took the car back at our earliest convenience and were shocked at the cost of repairs and that it is not covered by the recall and was not corrected when the recall repair was performed. in addition, other vehicles have recalled this part such as dodge, volkswagen, hyundai, kia, and just this year jeep issued a recall on the same part. i have included these document in this complaint. i feel that this part should be looked at to ensure the safety of all those driving a toyota.

Went to renew safety inspection for the state of hawai'i, and they failed me for having the air bag light on. as it happens, there is a recall for the side airbag on "select toyota models". although, they didn't apply it to my car. either that, or the technician, who took care of it before i owned it, didn't actually fix the issue, and just signed off on it. i'm still guessing that it never got addressed, because toyota hasn't issued a recall notice for my vin. the local servco toyota shop will not fix the issue for free, if there is no open recall or i don't have the notice in my hand. in other words, i will be illegal to drive, in two days.

I called a dealer in june to set up an appointment to have the repair done for this recall. i was told they did not have the part and my name was added to a list and the part should be in in 2 weeks. i called again today to check on the status and was told that they are still waiting on the parts. they can only order 9 parts per week and when they order the parts they are told that the parts are on back order. they are working on repairs for customers who called in may. i don't understand why toyota is limiting the amount of parts a dealer can order weekly and why they don't have the parts available when they know there is a recall. this process is taking too long and putting my son at risk.
