What owners say
Dash is cracked all over, including where airbag is on front right passenger side, causing airbag light to stay lit. This is a safety hazard and should be repaired or replaced by Toyota. I was already informed by Toyota when I had called that there had been a recall on this matter for cosmetic reasons several years ago and now it was “too late” for them to be responsible, but I did not know of that condition/recall. This is not only a cosmetic issue, this is a safety concern and needs to be addressed immediately. I was informed by an employee at the number I was given that safety issues do not fall under the statue of limitations for recalls. I’ve been trying to get a response from the National Highway Safety Division but I haven’t received an actual determination as to whether Toyota had to replace the dash or not. Please help with this urgent safety concern. I can be reached at [XXX]. Thank you INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Airbag light comes on and does not go away.
Air bag light staying on (stationary and in motion)
The air bag light continues to go on. I've spent many dollars to get if fixed, however, no one seems to know why the light is constantly on. It seems to be on the passenger side. The light goes on whenever the key is engaged.
My air bag light has been on, on my dash for about 2 months now. I see no recalls, but researched it. Looks like my airbags aren't working properly.
The airbag light came on shortly after I purchased the used car from a dealership. The dealership claimed they fixed the issue but the airbag light is still on and they refuse to fix the problem. I do not know what is causing the airbag to malfunction and the possible issues that may arise should I be involved in an accident.

- What is wrong
- On certain vehicles equipped with curtain side air bags (csa), the csa tether strap located in the front pillars may have been incorrectly routed during the assembly process.
- Risk
- If the tether strap is not correctly routed, the front side of the csa may not deploy as designed, which may result in insufficient occupant protection during a side impact crash or rollover event.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect both csa front tether straps, and if necessary, reroute them. The recall began on december 21, 2006. Owners may contact toyota at 1‑888‑270‑9371.
