2013 TOYOTA SIENNA Air Bags Problems

Sienna had recall on airbags that were fixed. I have a warning dashboard light that says there is an issue with my airbags and the seat belt light is on. According to the dealer there is an issue with the computer board. They purposed to fix the issue at 800.00 dollars. This is a safety issue due to the expensive cost to fix this. The dealer already had to replace the airbags and now there is something wrong with the computer board and currently I do not have airbags.

I had sever car accident while I am 7 months pregnant including my 5 years old sons . During the accident my airbag was not deployed which lead me hematoma in my uterus. That car is totally losses and the accident was severe .Thank God we put the sit belt and even if the frontdash board hit me bad . I will attach all the details of the accident and the police report. We tried to submit our complaint to Toyota and they refused to help .As if the air bug should not supposed to deploy with that kind of severe accident they say they don’t use this information .

SRS Airbag check issue. Last few days, my car has been showing following symptoms 1) Day 1: SRS airbag check warning is flashing on the display. The passenger airbag is always OFF regardless of the passenger being seated or not. 2) Day 2: SRS airbag check warning goes away, but passenger seat airbag is always ON regardless of anyone sitting or not. Also the seat belt chime is sounded for the passenger seat. 3) Day 5: SRS airbag check warning comes back and passenger airbag is OFF. (same as Day 1). The auto mechanic says there is a code about Occupant classification system that is malfunctioning. Dealer wants to charge me a lot of money just to get it inspected and diagnosed. The car has not been in any collision. This seems like totally Toyota's design and part reliability issue. In no condition the driver or passenger safety should be compromised in such manner. Yet Toyota dealership is not standing behind their mfg commitment to safe driving experience.

Despite a full sized adult sitting in the passenger seat, the AIRBAG OFF light remains on at all times.

My 2013 Toyota Sienna had two recalls, which are Power Sliding Do0r and Front Passenger Airbag inflator. My vehicle has been inspected and fixed. However, my recall status of the vechicle has not been updated, and continuously receive notice from Dealer and NHTSA.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TAKATA

I'M DISAPPOINTED THAT ALAMO TOYOTA IN SAN ANTONIO, TX DID NOT MENTION OR REQUEST TO FIX THIS RECALLED PART WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN IN SEPTEMBER 2017 FOR THE RECALL ON THE POWER DOORS. NOW, SEVERAL MONTHS LATER I'M DEALING WITH ANOTHER RECALL WAITING ON PARTS TO BE ORDERED WHEN THIS COULD HAVE BEEN FIXED 4-6 MONTHS AGO AND THIS WHOLE TIME MYSELF AND MY FAMILY HAVE BEEN AT RISK WITH THESE RECALLED PARTS NOT BEING REPAIRED.

TAKATA RECALL. THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP SAYS MY WIFE'S TOYOTA IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE AIRBAG RECALL. YOUR WEBSITE- HTTPS://WWW.NHTSA.GOV/RECALL-SPOTLIGHT/TAKATA-AIR-BAGS LISTS THE VEHICLE AS BEING SUBJECT TO THE RECALL. WHICH IS CORRECT? DOES HER CAR HAVE AN AIRBAG SUBJECT TO RECALL OR NOT? THANKS.
