The passenger seatbelt light keeps blinking when seat belt is buckled and it says passenger airbag is off while there is someone in there and buckled up. This happens when parked or driving, we have unhooked the battery to try to reset it. No luck. I am afraid if we were to get in an accident the passenger airbag would not deploy.

Vehicle was driven by wife. She was pulling into a parking spot at 90 degrees, she was braking, and the vehicle failed to stop. She hit a concrete support for a light pole. The passenger side front was damaged, air bags did not deploy, twice while I was driving the vehicle, the "brake!" flashed on the dash info center. Both times I was coming to a stop behind vehicles coming to a stop. We contacted the dealership and toyota costumer care, who had an independent source evaluate the "black box:. The data was collected and given to toyota, who informed us that it can take 30 days for an outcome. Toyota will not say if the vehicle is safe to drive, it is up to us if we want to drive it. Toyota will not provide us alternate transportation, as per toyota assistance pert of the vehicle warranty. So at this time I cannot drive my new, 5000 miles, truck and not provided alternative transportation.
