Airbag warning light by model year
What owners say
Air bag light came on intermittently. Vehicles air bag would not deploy upon impact. *ak
The vehicles air bag sensor failed which caused the air bag light to illuminate.
My air bag warning light has come on frequently while driving. The owners manual states to take it to the dealer immediately. Once there, the dealer states there is no code stored in the computer and there is nothing they can do. Once the car is restarted, the light is off, but comes on again a few days later. This has happened numerous times. I am worried of an air bag failure due to this indicator light, but the dealer can't help because of the lack of stored codes.
Airbag light continues to come on indicating a malfunction. Toyota refuses to acknowledge a problem exists.
Airbag light on dash comes on intermittently while driving. Dealer unable to find problem on 5 attempts bringing car in with airbag light on. Manufacturer not concerned. Mr
While driving along air bag warning lights came on. Sometimes air bag warning light flashed on and off. Sometimes the light would stay on. Vehicle was taken back to the dealership twice. Dealer stated that the entire air bag computer system was replaced. Problem still exist with the air bag.
My air bag light comes on 1 or 2 times a month, while driving. It stays on for 15-30 seconds. My next problem is that my engine check light came on when I started my car in 11/99. I took it to the shop and it was a faulty fuel injector. This was repaired but I don't feel this should have happen to a new car at such an early age. Also around 16,000 miles they had to replace my rotors. This also should not have happen at this early age.
Air bag warning light illuminates, indicating a malfunction within the air bag system. Cause unknown. Dealer can not identify the cause of the problem. Please give any further details.
