Air bag was replaced and light won't go off, causing inspection failure
Srs light is on not flashing. continuously illuminated. car was parked not moving i washed it and filled washer fluid reservoir fluid spilled so i rinsed it off when i was done i moved my car and srs light was on. i believe the senor shorted out when it got wet.
My car was involved in an accident that was bad enough that the airbags should have activated, but did not. this was after i had the recall on the airbags repaired at the dealer in late 2017. who can i address this problem with?
I had my car checked because a light came on on my dash on 12/6/17 so i had it checked and it ended up being my tire pressure was low, but the monitor they hook up indicated that my passenger airbag was affected, so i took it into toyota and they looked at me like i was dumb and just told me that they put air in my tires and everything was fine. so on 12/12/17 my maintenance required light came on and i had o'reilys check with there monitor and again it red flagged the passenger airbag, i knew it was time for an oil change so i figured that's why my maintenance required light was on but what concerns me is the airbag. according to my notes, i had my airbags supposedly replace in july of 2016 and i am not sure if a light would come on indicating something was wrong with the airbags but i need to find out if after a 1 1/2 years why i would have a problem with my airbag???? could this be related to the recall and how do i find out (other than going in to toyota) that ...
I found airbag recall number 16v340
October 9, 2017 i was rear-ended, hit at 35 mph. this hit i was sitting. i was side swiped at 40- 45 mph, moving at this time. i was again rear-ended at 50- 55 mph, stopped. and then i was backed into, in the front end of my car at 20-25 mph. how come no airbags go off?
I went to melody toyota in san bruno, ca (summer 2016) to have airbag recall taken care of. they told me they didn't have the part and they would call me for an appointment when it came in. after a month with no word from them i stopped by again. they told me i didn't need to stop by because they would call me when the part came in. that was over a year ago and they still haven't called! i got a reminder about the recall summer 2017 and made an appointment at one toyota of oakland for 10am 7/18/17. they told me car would be ready by 2:30. when 4:00 came and i had no word i asked. at around 4:30 i was told they hadn't started yet and they asked me if i wanted to make another appointment for another day. i walked out totally disgusted. obviously the toyota dealerships have put this airbag recall at the bottom of their priority list. i will try finding a third dealership today and hope to be done with this soon.
Steering column damaged airbag wiring, causing srs light to illuminate during normal driving.
Takata recall - it is unbelievable that i am unable to have passengers in the front seat of my car because of a risk of death and there is no date even to repair. this is a priority. i don't understand why i cannot have this fixed now. unbelievable!

Takata recall, airbags failed to inflate. car was in motion and hit a deer on highway and car is now deemed totaled by insurance company adjuster. recall on this vehicle was taken to toyota dealer approximately 2 months ago and supposedly taken care of. fortunately, no one in vehicle was insured. i wonder if there was some faulty instillation or the airbags were even replaced? the car was towed to a salvage location today in st. louis, mo.
