The local dealership Cloninger Ford /Toyota told me that I need to replace the airbag ECU and Pretensioner on drivers side. The cost estimate was $1,500.00. I have seen that Toyota has given recalls on other models for this defect. I have a 2003 Toyota Tacoma. I am submitting this complaint with hopes for my case to be considered. The airbag light cam on on my truck 2 months ago and Cloninger Toyota replaced the front seat belt assy. and erased dics. This cured the problem (light on) for a few weeks. Please consider this issue for recall further than you have at this point.

At approximately 128k miles, the air bag light illuminated and will not go out. The problem was first noticed while driving, but nothing happened to the vehicle that would have been an obvious cause. Additionally, the vehicle has been continually garaged since I purchased it new in 2003.

"takata recall" my airbag light came on recently. I took vehicle into auto shop, they replaced the airbag sensor located under the battery and cleared codes. The airbag light remained off for approx 30 days. Light kept coming back on every few days.I kept taking vehicle to auto shop where thy would clear the codes. This is a weekly routine. I have been informed that eventually the light will stay on permanently. Is this true? And is there a recall for airbags on this vehicle? I'm afraid the airbags might deploy while being driven

My 2003 matrix had less than 40,000 original miles when the dash air bag light came on. Toyota recalled the matrix for this problem and was corrected in 2013. My 2003 tacoma truck's current mileage is only 29,667 original miles. At approximately 28,000 miles the dash air bag light came on. A friend who specializes in toyota repairs checked it and said it was the b1100-air bag sensor module.. Toyota has yet to recall the 2003 tacoma for an air bag problem.
