Takata recall why is it that I live in zone a and my friend lives in zone b (maryland) and his car has been repaired and I am still waiting with no info available
I was sent a letter saying I should not have any passengers in the front of my car. This makes it impossible for my family to use the vehicle. I was sold the car by nally in atlanta in february 2016 but was given no notice of the issue at that time. I would like my car repaired or bought back or replaced.

Takata recall - my complaint is that I've been told not to use the front passenger seat until the airbag is replaced. I called my toyota/scion dealer and they have no date when the repair can be made but it may be months. So meantime I'm stuck with a car with limited functionality since I can't carry a passenger or even put heavy objects on the seat (as that would activate the airbag). And given this limited functionality and age of car, if I tried to sell it now, under this recall, the resale value is being hurt. I'm not satisfied with the time it is going to take to get my vehicle back to normal. What can be done to make toyota act faster or compensate us for the inconvenience?

Takata recall my complaint is there is no date as to when the defect regarding the takata airbags will be completed. The recommended resolution from toyota is to not have any one ride in the front passenger seat. This is a huge inconvenience. Is ridiculous to expect my family to continue to do this for some undetermined amount of time. There must be something else done now so I can continue to use my vehicle driving my family and friends as I should be allowed to do without fear of possible injury or death from the airbags.
Takata recall: I do not believe that it is right that there is no solution to this problem yet since my car can now only hold 4 people instead of 5. It is an inconvenience that I cannot have a front passenger. This situation should be fixed by providing everyone a safe rental car until there can be a solution to the unsafe conditions.

I was in a crash in warrensville heights, ohio on 11/20/2015. I was traveling at about 50mph southbound on i271 when I struck a car that had turned suddenly into my lane. My airbags did not deploy (all of the airbags in the car I struck were deployed).

Salt and snow causes error codes c0210, rear speed sensor rh circuit to malfunction and shuts down the ABS, traction control, and air bag deployment. All safety devices are off when salt is used on roadways. Salt and snow causes error codes c0215, rear speed sensor lh circuit to malfunction and shuts down the ABS, traction control, and air bag deployment. All safety devices are off when salt is used on roadways. This is a know problem with 2008-2009 scion xb, toyota tsb s-sb-0040-09, july 6,2009 **the connectors for these sensors are exposed to the environment, causing non deployment of safety devices leading up to, and during a crash**
I went over a high speed bump now my airbag light is on. It works intermittently but mainly stays on. Now I went to dealership and they say it will cost 1100.00 to fix.the passenger air bag is not working but the driver is. I've also noticed other people with airbag problems with passenger side. Maybe its time for a recall!!!
I was in an accident involving front end damage only (I.e. I left the roadway and struck a tree in the area of the grill of my vehicle, while attempting to avoid a deer). The airbags failed to deploy. I was a properly restrained driver of this vehicle with no occupants, as I was on my way to my place of employment. The vehicle was deemed a total loss by the insurance company. I was transported to the hospital by pov by an off duty psp trooper. I lost time at work, and experienced a low back injury, as well as had to replace my vehicle.
I own a 2008 xb and air bags never deployed when hit in passenger front side of car by a deer and back shoulder restraint didn't lock on impact allowed person to hit back of driver seat . After crash motor stayed running but hazard lights wouldn't work and just glad no one was killed. I just want someone to be aware that this could have been a bad outcome and to check out the safety of a vehicle to save lives.I did enjoy my xb lots room and great handling in snow.
Tl* the contact owns a 2008 scion xb. The contact stated while traveling approximately 15 MPH, another vehicle crashed into the contacts front passenger side of the vehicle. Upon impact, the air bags failed to deploy. There were no injuries. The vehicle was not repaired nor was the failure diagnosed. The manufacturer was not contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.
Driving on u.s 23 in michigan, trying to slow down from 55 MPH to 35 due to approaching au gres, mich. Could not slow down, started weaving in and out of traffic to avoid cars then turned off engine, took car out of gear, car kept going. The only way the car could be stopped was to hit a tree. The car was totaled. The air bag did not deploy.
Air bag sensors bad tie rods keep coming loose.
My 2008 scion xb was rear ended while I was sitting at a stop light. The vehicle that hit me was a larger chevy SUV traveling at a minimum speed of 35 MPH sending my scion into the rear of the car in front of me at the stop light. My air bags never deployed... I was told to notify your agency.
