The fix for this recall is long overdue! What action is being taken to expedite the fix? We have been waiting close to 7 months for this repair! The federal safety agency recall number: 15v043 recall date: january 27, 2015 manufacturer recall number: e3g summary: the electronic control unit (ecu) for the supplemental restraint system (SRS) in these vehicles could have been manufactured with integrated circuits that are susceptible to internal short circuiting when exposed to certain electrical noise from various vehicle electrical components. If internal short circuiting occurs, the front airbag(s) and/or seat belt pretensioners could inadvertently deploy. An airbag that deploys inadvertently can, under some circumstances, increase the risk of minor injury and the possibility of a crash. Safety risk: if internal short circuiting occurs, the front airbag(s) and/or seat belt pretensioners could inadvertently deploy. An airbag that deploys inadvertently can, under some circumstances, increase the risk of minor injury and the possibility of a crash.

Received a safety recall notice requiring the replacement of the SRS ecu. According to the safety recall notice, "the front airbags and/or seat belt pretensioners could inadvertently deploy.

Toyota has known of this problem for years and has worked on the car last year to give a temporary fix, now a few months ago toyota sends yet another recall for same parts, but yet the dealers nor toyota has any idea of when this will be available, meanwhile we drive around in fear of unnecessary deployment of airbag. We have been in contact with toyota and all the local dealers and no one can tell us anything, but on the news the reports say the airbags are being replaced
