What owners say
The air bag light came on and stayed on. We had our local mechanic look at it. He stated dealer had to fix because of computer cost to read air bag sensor readings. Mileage 155000. Several other dash lights come on and off.
After having my car, 2005 xb, serviced my air bag light came on.dealer stated they would need to remove the steering wheel to fix the problem. Car has approx 160,000 miles on it and I have seen others stating that same problem at or near the same mileage, toyota needs to look into this cause it seems to be a problem. Also other lights randomly coming on such vehicle stability, check engine and another light all come on together for no apparent reason. Recall please.
The air bag light came on and stayed on. We had our local mechanic look at it and he said the steering column needed to be taken apart to fix it. This sounds exactly like the current toyota recall for the spiral cable assembly yet my scion is not on the list of recalled vehicles.
Air bag light is on. Toyota dealer advises the wiring harness in steering column needs to be replaced and is a common problem.
