AIRBAG LIGHT ON MAIN INSTRUMENT PANEL COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING. WHEN THIS LIGHT IS ON, THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT BE DEPLOYED IN AN ACCIDENT. THERE IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. *TR HAVING DONE JUST A QUICK SEARCH OF THE INTERNET, IT APPEARS THAT THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON, YET THERE IS NO RECALL. IT SEEMS MOST OF THE ISSUES CAUSING THIS PROBLEM ARE RELATED TO EITHER THE SPIRAL AIRBAG CABLE OR THE VEHICLE CLOCK. PLEASE CONSIDER THE URGENCY OF THIS, AS I HAVE READ OF FOLKS HAVING HIGH SPEED HEAD ON COLLISIONS WHILE THE LIGHT WAS ON, AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.

THE TOYOTA DEALER DID NOT REPLACE THE INFLATOR ASSEMBLY BUT INSTEAD TURNED OFF THE AIR BAG & PUT A STICKER ON THE DASHBOARD THAT NO ONE COULD RIDE IN THE FRONT SEAT. WHILE THIS TAKES CARE OF TOYOTA'S LIABILITY IT DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. THE DEALER MENTIONED THAT TOYOTA WAS NOT GOING TO REPLACE THE PART AT ALL.

TAKATA RECALL MY SON HIT BY INFLATED DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG ON 18TH DEC2014 AT UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON RESULTED DUE TO PASSENGER SIDE TIRE HIT THE CURB RIGHT SIDE OF ROAD CURB . THIS MAY HAPPEN DUE TO PASSENGER SIDE FRONT TIRE BLEW AFTER HITTING THE CURB ( GUESS) BECAUSE CAR PASSENGER END STRUT TOUCHED THE CURB AND GOT DAMAGED . IT ALSO DAMAGED THE FIRE WALL . THE CAR WAS WITH NORMAL IN CAMPUS SPEED 25 MPH . TIRES WERE NEW & HAD REPLACED JUST THREE MONTHS BEFORE ACCIDENT . POLICE CALLED 911 & HE HAS BEEN TRANSPORTED TO ST. JOSEPH HOSPITAL , DOWNTOWN - HOUSTON DUE TO SEVER INJURIES DUE TO AIR BAG INFLATE . I WAS SHOCKED DUE TO DEEP CUT ON HIS FOREHEAD , FEW FACIAL CUTS & FRACTURED NOSE . I CALLED TOYOTA CUSTOMER CENTER IN FIRST WEEK ON JAN 2015 TO INFORM ABOUT AIR BAG INJURY & INVESTIGATE PROBABLE CAUSE , BUT THEY DENIED AND TOLD ME SUCH INJURY CAN TAKE PLACE DUE AIR BAG IMPACT . MY INTENTION WAS TO AVOID SUCH INJURIES TO ALL OTHERS BUT NO POSITIVE RESPONSE I RECEIVED FROM TOYOTA . IN 1ST WEEK OF JULY 2017 , I RECEIVED THE NOTICE ABOUT RECALL OF AIR BAG AT MY PREVIOUS RESIDENT ADDRESS . AFTER READING THE NOTICE , I GOT SHOCKED BECAUSE OF TOYOTA'S STAND IN 2015 . I CALLED TOYOTA & ASKED THEM TO INVESTIGATE THE MATTER BUT THE CASE MANGER INFORMED THAT THE RECALL IS ASSOCIATED WITH PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG & NOTHING TO DO DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG . ATTACHED CASE NUMBER & LETTER FOR YOUR REFERENCE . I HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM THEM , NEED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE . CAR IS STILL RUNNING WITHOUT DRIVER END AIR BAG .

I HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE FROM TOYOTA THAT MY VEHICLE MAY BE UNSAFE DUE TO THE INSTALLATION OF A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE TO SCHEDULE SERVICE SO AS TO AVOID ANY ACCIDENT OR INJURY TO MYSELF, MY FAMILY, OR OTHERS. I WAS INFORMED TODAY THAT NO DEALERSHIP IN MY AREA (INCLUDING COMPETITOR DEALERSHIPS SUCH AS HONDA) HAVE BEEN SET UP TO DEAL WITH THIS PROCESS UNTIL THE END OF JANUARY TO RECEIVE ANY SERVICE OR TO TAKE ANY OF THE RECOMMENDED STEPS IN THE ADVISORY LETTER. I AM REGISTERING THIS COMPLAINT TO ENSURE THAT IF ANY ACCIDENT OR INJURY OCCURS AS A RESULT OF THE DEFECT BEFORE I CAN RECEIVE THE APPROPRIATE SERVICE, THAT TOYOTA CANNOT CLAIM I DID NOT RESPOND IN A TIMELY OR APPROPRIATE MANNER. I AM DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED BY THIS RESPONSE AND HOPE THAT THE NHTSA WILL TAKE STEPS TO ENSURE THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS DOES NOT OCCUR IN FUTURE. I CONSIDER THE DELAY TO BE UNACCEPTABLE AND ADDING TO THE ANXIETY OF KNOWING THAT THIS RISK MAY OCCUR. *TR

MY LIGHT AIRBAG JUST COME ON I DON'T KNOW WHY.... I NEVER HAVE AN ACCIDENT ON MY CAR.... IS THIS IS NORMAL? *TR

DEALER DOESN'T HAVE PART AND WON'T ORDER PART UNLESS I BRING THE CAR IN FIRST AND HAVE AIR BAG DISCONNECTED ON PASSENGER SIDE. EXPLAINED I DON'T CARRY PASSENGER'S AND DON'T NEED THIS DONE, JUST GET THE PART AND I WILL BRING CAR IN. TALKED TO TOYOTA AND THAT'S THE CONDITIONS SET BY THEM TO GET PART REPLACED. IT WILL COST ME AT LEAST A FULL DAY BY GOING TWICE TO GET PART REPLACED AS DEALER IS AN HOUR AWAY FROM ME. I HOPE IT'S NOT THE CASE BUT IT FEELS AS IF THE MANUFACTURER IS DELIBERATELY MAKING IT MORE DIFFICULT TO HAVE DEFECTIVE PART REPLACED TO PREVENT THEM FROM PAYING MORE CLAIMS? *TR

CONCERN OVER AIRBAG RECALL. I HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. *JS

RECALLED FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG INFLATOR MODULE WAS DISCONNECTED BY TOYOTA OF DENTON, 4100 SOUTH I-35 EAST, DENTON, TX ON NOVEMBER 28, 2014. IT HAS NOW BEEN 3 1/2 MONTHS SINCE AIR BAG WAS DISCONNECTED AND AT THIS TIME THE DEALER NOR TOYOTA MOTOR SALES, U.S.A., TORRANCE, CA KNOW WHEN THE REPLACEMENT PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. MORE THAN A REASONABLE TIME HAS PASSED AND WE STILL DON'T KNOW WHEN THE FIX WILL BE DONE. *TR

WASHINGTON, D.C. - THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION URGES OWNERS OF CERTAIN TOYOTA, HONDA, MAZDA, BMW, NISSAN, MITSUBISHI, SUBARU, CHRYSLER, FORD AND GENERAL MOTORS VEHICLES TO ACT IMMEDIATELY ON RECALL NOTICES TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS... THE MESSAGE COMES WITH URGENCY, ESPECIALLY FOR OWNERS OF VEHICLES AFFECTED BY REGIONAL RECALLS IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS: FLORIDA, PUERTO RICO, LIMITED AREAS NEAR THE GULF OF MEXICO IN TEXAS, ALABAMA, MISSISSIPPI, GEORGIA, AND LOUISIANA..., [CASE#:[XXX]] THE CASE # IS THE RECORD OF MY CALL TO AND CONVERSATION WITH THE RECALL DIVISION OF TOYOTA USA. I HAVE REQUESTED OF TOYOTA CORPORATION THAT THEY FURNISH ME WITH THE MANUFACTURER INFORMATION FOR THE AIRBAGS INSTALLED IN MY COROLLA AT MANUFACTURE. THE REASON WHY I REQUESTED THIS INFORMATION SHOULD BE APPARENT FROM YOUR SITE AS WELL AS FROM THE HEARINGS IN CONGRESS AND THE RESPONSE FROM TAKATA. TOYOTA CORPORATION TOLD ME ON THE TELEPHONE THAT THEY COULD NOT GIVE ME THAT INFORMATION. . I FIND IT INTERESTING THAT TOYOTA CAN ISSUE PRODUCT RECALLS BY VIN NUMBERS; BUT CAN NOT FIND MANUFACTURING INFORMATION USING MY VIN NUMBER. IS THERE ANY WAY TO REQUIRE A CAR MANUFACTURER TO SUPPLY PARTS INFORMATION BY MANUFACTURER'S NAME? HAVING WORKED IN A MANUFACTURING ENVIRONMENT, I DO KNOW THAT SUCH INFORMATION IS REQUIRED TO BE KEPT BY US MANUFACTURING. I SUSPECT THAT TOYOTA USA HAS ACCESS TO SUCH INFORMATION. SINCE NHTSA REGULATES HIGHWAY SAFETY AND I THINK CORRECTLY, BELIEVES THAT TANAKA SHOULD RECALL ALL AIRBAGS IN THE AFFECTED YEARS, I AM HOPING THAT YOU CAN HELP ME TO RECEIVE MY AIRBAG INFORMATION SINCE YOU LIST 2005 TOYOTA COROLLA AS AFFECTED IN THE RECALL IN HIGH MOISTURE US STATES AND TERRITORIES. ANY WEATHER CHECK OF THE PAST TWO YEARS FOR N.C. SHOULD DEMONSTRATE THAT WE ARE A HIGH MOISTURE LOCATION. *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA THAT MY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I CALLED THE DEALER AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF TO COMPLETE THE WORK. 20 MIN. LATER I WAS TOLD THAT THE WORK WOULD NOT BE DONE BECAUSE I DIDN'T LIVE IN AN AREA THAT NEEDED A NEW AIRBAG. I ASKED WHY I GOT THE LETTER THEN. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CONTACT TOYOTA AND GIVE ME AN ANSWER WITHIN 24 HOURS. I DID NOT HEAR FROM THEM. THIS LAST WEEK I GOT A CALL FROM TOYOTA TO TELL ME THAT I NEEDED TO TAKE MY CAR IN TO A DEALER AND HAVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG REPLACED. I TOLD THE PERSON WHAT HAD HAPPENED BEFORE. SHE ASSURED ME THAT THIS TIME THE WORK WOULD BE DONE. SHE CONNECTED ME TO THE DEALER AND I MADE THE APPOINTMENT. I TOOK THE CAR IN. THEY CALLED ME AND TOLD ME THEY NEEDED THE CAR FOR A LONGER TIME DUE TO SOME COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS WITH TOYOTA. I PICKED UP MY CAR AFTER THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAD CLOSED. I CALLED THE NEXT DAY AND ASKED WHY THE WORK HADN'T BEEN DONE. THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART NEEDED TO DO THE REPLACEMENT. THEY HAVE HAD MY CAR TWICE FOR THE SAME RECALL AND I STILL DON'T HAVE THE PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF. I FEEL THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE MADE AN APPOINTMENT IF THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART. I FEEL THAT THEY ARE GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND AND HAVE NO INTENTION OF REPLACING THE AIRBAG. *TR

SIR, I BOUGHT A NEW TOYOTA LE YEAR 2005 IN MARYLAND AND SINCE THE BEGINNING I'VE ALWAYS BROUGHT MY CAR FOR MAINTENANCE TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP TO WHICH I WAS VERY PLEASED ABOUT IT. ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 17TH, 2014 MY SON WAS DRIVING OUR CAR SOUTHBOUND IN LANE 2 OF GEORGIA AVENUE WHEN ANOTHER DRIVER PULLED OUT OF A SECONDARY ROAD OF THE HOME DEPOT PARKING LOT AND WENT DIRECTLY INTO LANE 2 IN FRONT OF OUR CAR. MY SON WAS UNABLE TO AVOID THE OTHER DRIVER AND STRUCK HIS CAR IN THE REAR CAUSING LITTLE DAMAGE FOR THE DRIVERS CAR. THE IMPACT CAUSED A LOT OF DAMAGE IN THE FRONT END OF OUR CAR. MY SON DID NOT SUFFER A FRACTURE OR A SEVERE INJURY BUT HE GOT A CERVICAL SPRAIN, IN ADDITION TO DEVELOPING BACK PAIN, LEFT KNEE PAIN. THE IMPACT WAS SO BAD THAT OUR CAR WAS DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. BUT INTERESTINGLY, THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT ALL! IF THE AIRBAGS WERE DEFECTIVE AS IT HAS BEEN FOR OTHER TOYOTA CARS THEN I MAY HAVE HAD A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FIXED OR REPLACED SO THEY WOULD HAVE WORKED PROPERLY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT THAT'S WHY WE TRUST IN THE MANUFACTURER AND IN THE WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS IN THE MANUAL. ..UPDATED 12/29/14 *BF *TR
