I was involved in a traffic accident on Route 10 in California on February 27 and I hit the back of a large truck. My driving speed was 73mph and the impact speed was 33mph. The air bag of the vehicle deployed at the time, causing my right eyeball to rupture and permanently blind me. There was no damage to my face except for the right eye. My body didn't suffer any harm either. I looked up a lot of information and combined the results of the hospital diagnosis. I suspect a defect in the air bag caused my injury. And I found on the news that there have been many similar cases of airbags used by Toyota, which were accidental injuries caused by defective airbags. I would like your help to find out as soon as possible if my right eye is damaged due to a defective air bag from Toyota. I am driving a 2011 toyota, camry. Looking forward to your reply.

On march 18, 2020 I was driving on a highway on a steep grade during a winter storm and was part of an accident that involved hitting the guard rail causing my car to spin out and sustain a total loss of damage. Luckily I received no injuries but it was brought to my attention due to the extent of the damage that the airbags should have deployed and they did not.

Takata recall took my vehicle to be serviced at a shop and the light was on code described a problem with airbags I contacted toyota by phone and email for help. They are refusing to even look at it without charging me. I can not afford this I have 2 small children and if it is affected by this recall and not yet discovered they should e responsible. I dont feel safe in this car .
My vehicle's accelerator behaved oddly when my vehicle would not slow done. Instead my vehicle accelerated faster resulting in my vehicle becoming involved in a collision. It also has me very concerned that my airbags never deployed given the severity of my accident due to the speed at which my vehicle reached.
Airbag warning light is on. Possible affected by takata recall.
Airbag symbol was lit showing on my dash. I called toyota service department, and they told me to bring my car in. After inspection, they told that a spring had broken, and that my airbag would not depoy in an accident. Cost to replace spring was over $500.00. I called toyota to see if I could get some help with problem. Was told that they could not help me. My wife and I are living on a fix-income, and 500.00 is out of the question. I just saw a recall on a toyota land cruiser, with what I think is the same problem with the airbag. We don't feel safe driving this car with faulty airbag. Part needed is a sprial 84306-06150 clock spring.

I was involved in a very bad head-on collision and both leg and steering wheel airbags deployed. My car was headed southbound on the street and the SUV in front of me stopped suddenly because a school bus cut him off. I was wearing a seat-belt. The force of the airbags deploying was so great that it knocked me unconscious. The airbag that deployed by my legs has left me with some of the worst bruising I have ever seen and substantial pain. I have attached images of both the deployed airbags and my subsequent injuries. The er doctors, orthopedic doctor, neurologist and emts thought that these injuries were unusual and not consistent with the normal result of airbag deployment.
