2006 Toyota Sienna airbags complaints
Page 2 of 11: complaints 11 to 40 of 307, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Air bag fault lights for years. Dealer has fixed this a number of times pointing to bad plug connectors. Have replaced airbags over the years with same problem. Informs me that it needs new air bags as the plugs are part of the air bag. Very expensive! Have learned to jiggle yellow air bag connectors under seat to resolve problem. Dealer indicated they adjusted pin connectors in the past? Ridiculous as the problem is obviously in the connector and why should I have to pay for a complete air bag. Spent enough money on this persistent problem over the years. Please see toyota tsb -1062-10 which acknowledges this long time defect.
The airbag light been flashing all the time.
Airbag light is flashing. While driving or being on it flashes.
System is presenting airbag warning codes b0111 & b0116. These codes mean that we have to spend $3000-4000 to replace the airbags and wiring harnesses for the driver and passenger sides. This is completely out if the blue because a warning light came on. The vehicle is otherwise in great shape and has never been in an accident.
The airbag light is flashing at random interval both stationary or in motion. Unplugging and plugging the connectors many times can sometimes solve the problem for a few days or weeks. The airbag lamp would come back. It's very unsafe for driving with whole family in the car. Need a recall. This has happened for years since I owned the car 6 years ago.
To the federal safety agency representatives, this e-mail is sent regarding my alert to the danger and safety concerns to citizens regarding the used car sales at honda of fort myers, florida. Due to a "2006 toyota sienna" in fort myers, florida, that was sold as in very good to excellent mechanical condition and free of defects. It is been recently discovered that a major front end accident occurred on 11/16/206 in florida. The impact severity caused functionality concerns and defects to the airbags, airbag sensor, and seat belts which were never repaired properly from this accident and left damaged and defective. Sadly, the carfax history had only begun reporting this data on 10/31/2011. The owners or used car dealership neglected to disclose this facts and other severe defects, recalls, and damages that occurred to the engine. The internal damages and safety features were discovered through legitimate diagnostic by toyota. Please help me to recover and obtain the police report or record held by law enforcement regarding the major accident incident on this vehicle that occurred on november 16, 2006, in florida. This vehicle may have been a salvage /re-titled but never appropriately and properly repaired for citizens use on the roads and highways. Carfax has provided no response to my e-mail to me but carfax began reporting this information on october 31, 2011. In addition, the VIN # has appeared in reports as an xle or as a limited model design which implies deception, used car dealership fraud, or misuse of the VIN # regarding doing the necessary, required, and correct repairs to make the vehicle safe to drive and perform safety recalls notices via certified mail sent on this vehicle to the owner or used car dealership at honda of fort myers. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. I look forward to hearing from you.

The SRS airbag light comes on after putting the car in motion for a few minutes. We have not had it looked at by a professional but I did do a visual inspection under the front seat and there were no issues with the connectors.

Airbag light goes on and off dealer said he can fix for $400. Or more. Claims he was able to wiggle it to help temporarily. Worked for a short time. Seems like many owners have this issue.
My airbag light began flashing when the car was only a few years old. It would go off for a while then reappear. It appears to be a harness problem that thousands of people are complaining about with this car. And the problem appears to be associated with an under-seat storage bin that rubs against the wiring harness that's beneath the passenger seat. I've now read many, many, many complaints about this and yet toyota refuses to respond. Please help.

Air bag warning continuously flashes when the car is on. Mechanic tried to reset it but it goes right back to flashing when the car is restarted. No accidents, this began at 114,000 miles.

2006 sienna le airbag warning light keeps flashing.
Takata recall I am filing this complaint because I have contacted toyota many times regarding the safety of the airbags in my van. The safety of my family is in question. Even though a recall does not come up when I enter the VIN in I am told by toyota that doesn't mean my van won't be subject to a recall in the future. I need to know! My family and I are expected to play russian roulette every time we get in the van.toyota reps are playing a guessing game when they give me information about the safety of my van. They cannot tell me why my van is not being recalled. I need specifics such as who made the airbag in my van, toyota says they cannot tell me this because their lawyers have told them not to give out that info. The person who gave me this info told me they spoke to the executive management where they work and that is all they can tell me. Not good enough! I would like to know why nobody will give me a definitive answer that would put my mind at ease. Could it be because my van is a 2006 and takata knew of the airbag problems in 2004 but did not admit to it until 2008? Can they not tell me definitively because takata tampered with info from 2004 through 2008 before they went public with problem? Toyota reps tell me they are going forward with recalls as they receive info from takata and the federal safety agency. I cannot trust takata with the safety of my family and for this reason I am appealing to the federal safety agency to please give me permission to take my van to a certified mechanic to have the airbags removed. You will probably quote the safety statistic that my chances of being killed in an auto accident are greater without airbags than having an airbag spontaneously explode in my face. Before the recall I was never fixated on getting in an accident, now I am a distracted driver worrying if my airbags are going to explode in someone's face.

The airbag light began to blink after 145,000 miles. Same as hundreds of other entries shown on this website. Will be contacting toyota dealer.
