Driving on an access road, a car stopped suddenly in front of me at low speed, and I stepped on brakes hard and they did not work. Have had acceleration problems in past and reported to dealership. Car was included in the recall of cruise control sticking and acceleration and odometer going out and dashboard. Airbags deployed prematurely and did not inflate fully. Service light sticking preventing inspection until dealership can order part resulting in two traffic violations of no inspection even though presenting documentation of seeking inspection and failed. Replaced part on service bulletin, replaced three windshields having nothing hitting it but cracking anyway,back trunk handle broke,glove compartment broke,seat belt problems,car total loss by insurance company even though front had no damage visible, severe damage to front bumper underneath=six thousand dollar estimate-no transportation now-unsafe car , was loyal toyota customer but this is not a safe car four sets of tires before forty thousand miles, factory put wrong size on care, private tire company identified problem and tire rims were damaged. This was a rip off car. Bought new-never again.

Air bag light is on. Toyota dealer advises the wiring harness in steering column needs to be replaced and is a common problem.

I was driving my 2005 scion xb when I struck a guard rail and another vehicle with the front end of the scion at approximately 50 MPH. My airbag did not go off. This resulted in whiplash injuries to my head, neck and back. My vehicle was determined to be a total loss by my insurance company after the crash.

Dt*: the contact stated the airbags did not deploy during a collision. The vehicle was side swiped then hit a rock wall with the passenger side front end. This occurred at 65 MPH and the damage was between the corner and headlights. The seatbelts were worn, but the occupants received minor injuries. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence and has not been seen by a mechanic.
