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 ...
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 ...
