"takata recall" I am the owner of the toyota corolla vehicle with the VIN details supplied above. I recently stumble to the federal safety agency search tool where I came across how to check with my VIN to know if my vehicle is among the recalled vehicles, unfortunately, my VIN details supplied confirmed to me that my vehicle is one of the recalled vehicle with status showing "recall incomplete". I live here in nigeria and I use the car here in nigeria, I would like to know where I could replace by passanger airbag here in nigeria. I look forward to your prompt advice on this. Thank you.
Took vehicle to dealer in miami for SRS recall, light came on about 6 month earlier, advisor told me they replace SRS control unit, but light still on and airbag are not operational, I was told probably a spiral cable needs to be replace at my expense and that is not covered. I see a lot of this same problem happening on corollas spiral cable failure. Toyota is not addressing this issue which makes SRS system inoperative then what is the point of all the SRS recall. This issues needs to be address
Ecu service campaign/ takata / request for spiral cable replacement by dealer holman toyota-scion mount laurel, nj 856.866.1740 (p) 856.866.0083 customer #19139 please review toyota manual to confirm if replacement of all components of air bag and ecu are required or suggested to be replaced after collision by certified technicians during the repair process prior to release by insurance claim.
Had 2 airbag recalls completed at dealership-airbag light on dashboard was still on when jobs were completed--I was told it would cost $105 to 'diagnose' the airbag system is not safe....I should not be charged to diagnose and repair system that is faulty
I took my car for a airbag recall. My airbag light was on prior to recall. I really don't know if this fixed, because light is still on. From what I heard my airbag won't even work with the light being on . Call someone on toyota and the said it would an extra charge to have it diagnosed. Shouldn't the problem have been fix when I took it for the recall because of a defective airbag.
