2006 TOYOTA TUNDRA Air Bags Problems

Tried to make an appointment with Ray Brandt Toyota in Kenner Louisiana. Made the appointment online, but could not get someone to call me back telling me if the airbag part was in I tried calling countless times I tried going through their website. Chat nothing. I’m going to have to drive over an hour away to another Toyota dealership, due to this once lack of concern towards their customers. I don’t even feel safe driving my vehicle due to metal being in the airbags.

I have been trying to get my airbag changed from recall. Toyota will not do the repair. They refuse to pick up my truck. My Reference number at Toyota is 220901001583. This is the number Toyota corp. gave to me. Twice corp. set up the repair both times dealers refused to come get it. Now corp. says I have to bring it in to get the repair. For two years they have been sending me recall notices saying they will come and get the vehicle. now they refuse to do that. I will not take it to Toyota. they have wasted enough of my time already. Thanks Russ

NOT LONG AFTER THE LAST TAKATA RECALL,NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 15V286000, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG COVER BECAME STICKY AND DISCOLORED - MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER WHO PERFORMED THE RECALL AND THE TOYOTA CORPORATION SAID IT IS NOT A TOYOTA ISSUE. AN INTERNET SEARCH REVEALS OWNERS OF A VARIETY OF AUTO MANUFACTURERS HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT ANY DEFECTS RELATED TO AIRBAG COMPONENTS COULD POSE A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD. PLEASE ADVISE IF THIS CONSTITUTES A " SAFETY PROBLEM " AND ANY KNOWN REMEDY. THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

JAN. 2, 2021 DEALER (ADVANTAGE TOYOTA OF VALLEY STREAM) REFUSED TO COMPLETE NHTSA RECALL NO. 19V-741. DEALER STATED THAT THEY DO NOT DO RECALL SERVICE ON WEEKENDS. TOYOTA CORPORATE'S RECALL LETTER STATES THAT A LOANER VEHICLE WOULD BE PROVIDED. ADVANTAGE TOYOTA STATES THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE LOANER VEHICLES, REGARDLESS OF WHAT DAY OR TIME I WOULD BE WILLING TO SCHEDULE THE SERVICE APPOINTMENT. DEALER DID NOT OFFER ANY ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS (RIDE HOME, PAID TAXI, ETC.) CONTACTED CORPORATE, ADVISED THAT THE DEALERS ARE PRIVATELY OWNED AND TOYOTA INC IS NEITHER AFFILIATED NOR LIABLE FOR DEALERSHIP ACTIONS. TOYOTA RECOMMENDED THAT I PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE EXPENSES FOR A RENTAL CAR AND REQUEST REIMBURSEMENT AT A LATER DATE. I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE OF INTEREST TO THE NHTSA THIS EXAMPLE OF TOYOTA'S LACK OF INTEREST TO REMEDY A MANDATED SAFETY RECALL. TOYOTA SENDS MULTIPLE LETTERS INDICATED A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH A VEHICLE THEY MANUFACTURED. THEN, DEALERSHIPS MAKE IT DIFFICULT (IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE) TO HAVE THE RECALL SERVICE COMPLETED. TOYOTA THEN EXCUSES ITSELF FROM LIABILITY BY STATING DEALERSHIPS ARE PRIVATELY OWNED. CONVENIENT. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS PERTAINING TO THIS MATTER.

TAKATA RECALL WHILE TRUCK WAS AT DEALERSHIP HAVING AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM TROUBLESHOT WAS INFORMED BY DEALERSHIP ABOUT AIR BAG RECALL AND THAT RECALL WOULD BE DONE AT SAME TIME. PASSENGER AIR WAS REPLACED AT THIS TIME. AFTER TRUCK SAT A DEALERSHIP FOR EXTENDED PERIOD EVENTUALLY GOT TRUCK BACK. EVERYTHING APPEARED NORMAL. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS TO A YEAR STARTED NOTICING AN ODD APPEARANCE ON THE PASSENGER AIR BAG COVER. THIS AREA BEGAN HAVING A STICKY FEELING TO IT. PLACED A PAPER NAPKIN ON THE AIR BAG COVER AND HAD PART OF THE NAPKIN STICK TO THE COVER. DURING ONE OF THE RECENT HEAT SPELLS WITH THE INTERIOR OF THE TRUCK REACHING A HIGH TEMPERATURE DISCOVERED THAT THE AIR BAG COVER HAS BEEN SPRAY PAINTED TO MATCH INTERIOR COLOR OF TRUCK. THIS MAKES THAT AREA OF THE DASH LOOK DISGUSTING PLUS YOU CAN NO LONGER LAY AN OBJECT THERE WITHOUT IT GETTING STUCK TO THE DASH. AM ABLE TO PUSH PAINT AND SEE THAT ORIGINAL COLOR OF AIR BAG COVER IS BLACK.

TAKATA RECALL

TAKATA RECALL

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED MULTIPLE TIMES BY PHYSICAL USPS MAILER THAT MY CAR NEEDS TO HAVE THE INFLATOR REPLACED FOR THE AIR BAGS. I FOLLOWED THE PROCESS 3 DIFFERENT TIMES AT WHICH POINT I WOULD BE PUT IN CONTACT WITH FOLSOM LAKE TOYOTA VIA TELEPHONE. EVERY TIME THEY STATED THAT THE PART NEEDED TO BE ORDERED SO THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK ON MY CELLPHONE TO SCHEDULE THE INSTALL WHEN THE PART ARRIVED. YEARS HAVE GONE BY AND THEY STILL NEVER CALL ME BACK, AND CLAIM THE PART NEEDS TO BE ORDERED EVERY TIME I DO TALK TO SOMEONE.

"TAKATA INFLATOR RECALL" TOYOTA DEALERS HAVE NOT REPLACED THE RECALLED INFLATORS ON MY VEHICLE. THIS PUTS US IN DANGER OF AFOREMENTIONED AIR BAG INFLATOR, CAUSING A DANGEROUS INJURY. WE NEED ASSISTANCE.

THE TRUCK WAS INVOLVED IN A ROLL OVER AND COMPLETE LOSS OF THE TRUCK. AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT, WHICH WAS A MAJOR ACCIDENT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.

I RECEIVED A RECALL ON MY TRUCKS AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE TOOK MY TRUCK TO DEALER THEY SAID THEY WOULD ORDER THE PART AND CALL ME TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR INSTALLATION I WENT BACK THREE TIMES TO DEALER WITH NO SUCCESS ALSO THE RECALL THEY MADE ON MY TRUCK LAST YEAR THE FRAME RUSTING OUT DID NOT LAST EVERY THING THEY DID FELL OFF THE FRAME OF MY TRUCK IS THIS TRUCK SAFE TO DRIVE

4/12/17 I CALLED TO SCHEDULE REPLACEMENT OF MY RECALLED AIR BAG VIN:6S457928 TOYOTA TUNDRA 2006 MGR. NANCY (TOYOTA DEALERSHIP SOUTH BLVD. CHARLOTTE) REFUSED TO SCHEDULE APPOINTMENT WITH OUT ME PROVIDING MY PHONE NUMBER. SHE WOULD EVEN LET ME TALK TO HER MGR. TOD GRUB OR LEAVE MESSAGE FOR HIM. SHE WAS PLAIN RUDE SO I ASKED HER TO GIVE ME SOMETHING IN WRITING "REFUSAL TO REPLACE AIR BAG DUE TO CUSTOMER UNWILLINGNESS TO RELEASE PHONE NUMBER" SHE REFUSED THAT TOO. I TRIED TO EDUCATE MGR NANCY THAT ALL YOU NEED AND ALL YOU CAN GET IN THIS SITUATION IS MY TITLE AND MY ID. I HOPE THAT YOU SEE AND ADDRESS THE ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT AND RISK THEY KEEP US IN.

I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR A YEAR TO HAVE THE AIR BAGS REPLACED UNDER THE RECALL WITH MAITA TOYOTA AND FOLSOM LAKE TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS IN CALIFORNIA. I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE AND THEY PARTS COULD STILL TAKE A YEAR TO COME IN. THIS IS NONSENSE. WHY ARE THEY ALLOWED TO NOT HAVE THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPLACE A DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT IS THEIR FAULT. WHY DO I HAVE TO ASSUME THE RISK OF HAVING MY FACE BLOWN OFF BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT TO SPEND THE MONEY TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT. AS USUAL THE CORPORATIONS GET AWAY WITH MURDER WHILE THE INDIVIDUALS PAY THE PRICE. THE DEALERSHIPS NEED TO BE MADE TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT AND GET THESE SAFETY RECALLS TAKEN CARE OF.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE DEALER (LIBERTY TOYOTA) FOR THE PAST THREE MONTHS FOR ECU PASSENGER AIRBAG ISSUES. TO DATE, TOYOTA CORPORATE ENGINEERS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE. MY SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED IN TWO OTHER STATES IN THE COUNTRY. I ELEVATED THE PROBLEM TODAY TO TOYOTA CORPORATION AND THEY HAVE ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER TO IT.

I SCHEDULED A REPAIR AT DAVE EDWARDS TOYOTA. WAS TOLD TO COME IN AT 10AM, AND I COULD PICK UP THE VEHICLE AT 12 NOON.

TAKATA INFLATORS TOYOTA NOTIFIED ME THAT REPLACEMENT PARTS WERE AVAILABLE IN MY GEOGRAPHIC AREA IN FEBRUARY 2016. WHEN I CALLED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT, I WAS TOLD THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL SEPTEMBER 2016. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE TIME FRAME TO REPAIR A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. ARE THERE ANY OTHER REMEDIES?

MY TRUCK HAS A RECALL ON THE AIR BAG, THE RECALL STATED DO NOT HAVE ANYONE IN THE FRONT SEAT. I HAVE HANDICAP PEOPLE WHO CANNOT GET IN THE BACK SEAT. IF SOMEONE HITS ME MY PASSENGER CAN BE INJURED OR KILLED. I CALLED TO GET AN APPOINTMENT FOR REPLACEMENT AND IT IS UP TO 4 MONTHS OUT. UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND I FEEL TOYOTA SHOULD PROVIDE A RENTAL CAR TILL THE AIR BAG CAN BE REPLACED.

TAKATA RECALL-WE RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA A MONTH AGO STATING THAT "TOYOTA HAS COMPLETED PARTS PREPARATION FOR VEHICLES IN YOUR GEOGRAPHIC AREA". I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THERE IS A NATIONAL BACK ORDER OF THE PART AND THAT IT WOULD TAKE 3-4 MONTHS FOR THE PART TO COME IN. UNTIL THEN , NO ONE IS TO DRIVE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT OF THE TRUCK WHICH MAKES THE VEHICLE VIRTUALLY UNUSABLE. THE RECALL HAS BEEN IN EFFECT FOR ALMOST A YEAR AND NOW WE ARE BEING TOLD IT WLL BE ANOTHER 1/3 OF A YEAR BEFORE IT IS ADDRESSED.

TAKATA RECALL STILL WAITING TO BE ABLE TO USE THIS VEHICLE SAFELY. UNACCEPTABLE WAITING TIME! WAS TOLD TODAY THAT "THEY SEND THEM AT WILL" AND "IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE A LENGTHY WAITING TIME BUT YOU ARE WELCOME TO CHECK BACK PERIODICALLY"!!! THIS AN URGENT SAFETY RECALL AND HAS RESULTED IN DEATHS!

TAKATA RECALL- ACCORDING TO NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 15V285, THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED ON JUNE 16, OF 2015. I JUST RECEIVED MY RECALL NOTICE FROM TOYOTA LAST WEEK, A FULL NINE MONTHS LATER. IS THIS DELAY PERMISSIBLE? MY MAILING ADDRESS IS KNOWN TO TOYOTA AND IT HASN'T CHANGED IN FOUR YEARS. THIS IS VERY UPSETTING TO LEARN ABOUT SO LATE- NOT KNOW MY GRAND KIDS OR OTHERS SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. ALSO, REGARDING NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 16V065000- HOW LONG SHOULD I EXPECT TO WAIT FOR A RECALL NOTICE? THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THEY CAN DO NOTHING UNTIL TOYOTA NOTIFIES THEM. *TR

URGENT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE RECEIVED. OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY CAN ONLY GET 1 REPAIR KIT A WEEK FROM TOYOTA, SO IT WILL BE 2 MONTHS BEFORE WE CAN GET THIS FIXED. IN THE MEANTIME, WE ARE TOLD NO ONE SHOULD RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS DOES NOT SEEM LIKE A TIMELY REMEDY TO A DANGEROUS DEFECT.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TAKATA RECALL. THE RECALL STARTED ALMOST A YEAR AGO FOR THE LOS ANGELES AREA. THE SUGGESTION TOYOTA GAVE ME UNTIL THE INFLATOR IS AVAILABLE IS TO TRANSPORT NO PERSON IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS OUR ADVENTURE VEHICLE: SNOWBOARDING, KAYAKING, ROAD BIKING, MOUNTAIN BIKING, CAMPING, SCUBA DIVING, ETC. I DO ALL OF THE THINGS WITH MY WIFE AND FRIENDS. AM I REALLY EXPECTED TO TRANSPORT NO ONE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FOR THIS LONG? IT IS COMPLETELY UNFAIR TO PUT MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS EITHER AT RISK OR TO MAKE IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO USE MY TRUCK THE WAY IT WAS INTENDED TO BE USED. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT IT IS TAKING TOO LONG TO GET THE INFLATOR NEEDED FOR TOYOTA TO FIX THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL - UNACCEPTABLE HOW LONG THIS RECALL HAS TAKEN TO CORRECT. ONE OF OUR TWO VEHICLES IS UNABLE TO BE USED AS A FAMILY VEHICLE AND HAS NOW GONE PAST THE POINT OF BEING AN INCONVENIENCE. HAVE RECEIVED ABSOLUTELY NO INFORMATION SINCE THE ORIGINAL NOTICE. HOW WAS TOYOTA ABLE TO PASS THE STATE INSPECTION WITH THIS RECALL IN EFFECT?

I WAS INFORMED OF THE RECALL IN THE SUMMER OF 2014. IT HAS BEEN NEARLY A YEAR AND A HALF SINCE THE NOTIFICATION. I WAS TOLD PARTS WERE ORDERED AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED AND SCHEDULED FOR REPLACEMENT WHEN THE PARTS ARRIVED. I'VE CONTACTED DEALERS MULTIPLE TIMES AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING, WHEN PARTS ARRIVED. THE INITIAL LETTER TOLD ME NOT TO HAVE ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT (FOR A YEAR AND A HALF.) I THINK I'VE BEEN PATIENT LONG ENOUGH.WHEN THIS ALL STARTED I WAS IN LEXINGTON KY.

TAKATA RECALL - BECAUSE THE RECALL NOTICE SENT BY TOYOTA ADVISES THAT I NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE WITH AN OCCUPANT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, I HAVE HAD ONLY LIMITED USE OF THE VEHICLE FOR NEARLY SIX MONTHS. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA, ASKING THAT THEY PROVIDE A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE OR BUY THE VEHICLE BACK (TOYOTA CASE #1511190602. SINCE THE VEHICLE CAN NOT BE USED AS INTENDED, IT IS MY OPINION THAT TOYOTA SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO OFFER RESONABLE COMPENSATION AND/OR AN AMICABLE SOLUTION. FURTHER, IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG IS MORE LIKELY TO FAIL IN AREAS PRONE TO HIGH HUMIDITY. FOR MOST OF THE YEAR, THIS TRUCK IS PARKED WITHIN 50 FEET OF LAKE ERIE - FROM MAY TO SEPTEMBER - NORMAL DAILY HUMIDITY IS GENERALLY OVER 80% TOYOTA SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO OFFER COMPENSATION - THIS IS A SERIOUS DEFECT. TO SO DRASTICALLY LIMIT THE OWNERS USE OF THE VEHICLE WITH NO KNOWN DATE FOR A SOLUTION IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

2006 TOYOTA TUNDRA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT / AIRBAG RECALL. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED IT IS TAKING TOO LONG TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER. *JB

I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE FOR DEFECTIVE PASS SIDE AIRBAG APPROX. 4TO5 MONTHS AGO. SAYING NOT TO ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE IN FRONT PASS SIDE OF VEHICLE. I HAVE CALLED DEALER TWICE AND WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS TO REPAIR YET. I FEEL LIKE IM GETTING THE RUN AROUND. THIS IS VERY INCONVENIENT FOR US NOT TO HAVE USE OF ONE FRONT SEAT.

Mileage: 120,000

RECEIVED NOTE FOR REPLACEMENT A LONG TIME AGO. TOYOTA CAN NOT PROCURE AN AIRBAG IN 6 MONTH?? ARE THEY REALLY INTENDING TO REPLACE IT OR DO WE HAVE WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT?? WORKING IN THE INDUSTRY I REALLY WONDER ABOUT THEIR EXCUSES.

I AM BEING DENIED USE OF MY 2006 TOYOTA TUNDRA DUE TO THE EXTENDED DELAY IN REPLACING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG BECAUSE THERE IS NO OTHER SAFE PLACE MY WIFE CAN SIT IN THE VEHICLE. SO I CAN ONLY USE IT BY MYSELF FOR SHORT TRIPS TO THE STORE. FOR LONGER TRIPS I HAVE TO MAKE USE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE AND RENT A TRAILER IF I HAVE TO MOVE ANY ITEMS, THAT WE NEED TO DO ON A REGULAR BASIS. TOYOTA SHOULD STOP ITS FOOT DRAGGING IN REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PASSENGER AIR BAGS, PARTICULARLY ON VEHICLES WHERE THE PASSENGER HAS NO OTHER SAFE OPTION FOR SITTING.

RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM TOYOTA SOME TIME BACK IN REGARDS TO THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. NOTICE DOES NOT INDICATE WHEN THE REMEDY CAN BE PERFORMED, BUT DOES RECOMMEND NOT ALLOWING ANYONE TO RIDE IN THE FONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS BEYOND WORDS. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE, PUT SOME PRESSURE ON THE MANUFACTURER. IT IS THEIR PROBLEM, MAKE THEM FIX IT NOW. TELLING SOMEONE NOT TO USE A PASSENGER SEAT IN A PICKUP IS ASININE. RECALL IS PATHETIC.

THIS IS NOT A COMPLAINT ABOUT A SPECIFIC INCIDENT; IT'S A COMPLAINT ABOUT HOW LONG IT'S TAKING FOR TOYOTA TO IMPLEMENT ITS RECALL. TOYOTA'S INSTRUCTIONS ADVISE NO ONE RIDE IN THE FRONT SEAT UNTIL THE REPAIRS ARE MADE TO THE AIRBAGS. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 5 MONTHS SINCE THE RECALL. MY FOUR PERSON CAR HAS BEEN A THREE PERSON CAR SINCE THE RECALL WENT INTO EFFECT IT HAS RENDERED US UNABLE TO DRIVE OUR FAMILY OF FOUR EFFECTIVELY DENYING US THE BENEFIT OF THE BARGAIN OF THE VEHICLE WE PURCHASED. THIS DELAY IS INEXCUSABLE.

WE RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION REGARDING A SAFETY RECALL FOR OUR TOYOTA TUNDRA 2006. IT SAYS THAT TOYOTA DOESN'T CURRENTLY HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WHICH MAY BE UNDER PRESSURE AND COULD DEPLOY AT ANYTIME. WE WERE ADVISED NOT TO UTILIZE THE PASSENGER SIDE OF OUR VEHICLE UNTIL WE ARE CONTACTED FOR A REPAIR. THIS ADVISE HAS NOT BEEN POSSIBLE SINCE WE HAVE ANOTHER CAR IN THE SHOP AND WE HAVE NEEDED TO COMMUTE TOGETHER. WE DO NOT FEEL THAT WE SHOULD HAVE TO RENT A CAR. IT'S UNREASONABLE THAT TOYOTA WOULD EXPECT THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS TO "WAIT" FOR A REPAIR THAT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY AND IN THE MEANTIME NOT USE THEIR VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN OVER THREE WEEKS SINCE WE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTIFICATION AND WE HAVE NOT HEARD FROM TOYOTA THAT OUR REPAIR CAN BE SCHEDULED. WE BELIEVE THAT TOYOTA HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME AND WE WANT THIS RECALL TO BE REMEDIED IMMEDIATELY FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR FAMILY. THANK YOU *TR

SERIOUSLY, THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND I AM TOLD TO NO LET ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL IT IS FIXED? I DON'T HAVE ANOTHER VEHICLE TO DRIVE AND MY HUSBAND CARPOOL EVERYDAY 5 DAYS A WEEK. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO FOR THE 5 WEEKS UNTIL THE PART COMES IN. I BELIEVE 5 WEEKS IS AN UNREASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO WAIT FOR SUCH A CRUICIAL PIECE OF EQUIPMENT THAT IS RISKING DEATH OR SEVERE INJURY. THE PROBLEM IS MOISTURE AND FOR HEAVENS SAKE THIS IS FLORIDA WITH DAILY RAIN AND HIGH HUMIDITY.

A 1992 FORD F-250 (2 DOOR) TOWING A PORTABLE CEMENT MIXER, ESTIMATED WEIGHT @350-450 POUNDS, CROSSED THE CENTER LINE AND STRUCK A 2006 TOYOTA TUNDRA CREW CAB (4 DOOR) HEAD ON. BOTH VEHICLES ESTIMATED SPEED WAS 50 MPH. ALL DRIVERS AND PASSENGER WERE WEARING SEAT BELTS, AIRBAGS DID DEPLOY. THE F-250'S DRIVER SUSTAINED 1 DETACHED RIB PLUS CUTS AND BRUISES. IN THE TOYOTA, THE FOLLOWING INJURIES OCCURRED: PASSENGER: BROKEN LEFT ANKLE, 7 BROKEN RIBS, STERNUM AND CLAVICLE FRACTURES, 7 INCH LEG LACERATION, 5 INCH HAND LACERATION, CUTS & BRUISES. DRIVER: BROKEN RIGHT ANKLE, BRAIN CONTUSION/CONCUSSION (VISIBLE IMPACT SPOT ON WINDSHIELD - SEE BELOW), BROKEN RIB, CUTS AND BRUISES. TOYOTA'S OCCUPANTS CONFIRMED THAT THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION INTRUDED ABOUT 2 FEET INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, CONSISTENT WITH THE ANKLE INJURIES. IT ALSO APPEARS FROM PHOTOS THAT THE WINDSHIELD WAS PUSHED BACK INTO THE DRIVER, ALTHOUGH THE BELT AND AIRBAG COULD HAVE NOT PROVIDED ADEQUATE PROTECTION ALSO. FRONTAL PHOTOS OF THE TOYOTA SHOW, APPARENTLY, THAT THE BODYWORK DETACHED FROM THE FRAME - THE FRONT OF THE FRAME IS CLEARLY VISIBLE & DOES NOT LOOK SERIOUSLY DAMAGED, WITH THE BODYWORK (INCLUDING THE BUMPER) PUSHED BACK SUBSTANTIALLY. IT SEEMS TO ME THERE ARE SEVERAL POSSIBLE DEFECT/DESIGN ISSUES HERE: 1. ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION CAME STRAIGHT BACK AND DID NOT DEFLECT DOWNWARDS, CAUSING THE LOWER EXTREMITY INJURIES. 2. MULTIPLE RIB INJURIES DESPITE OCCUPANTS BEING BELTED SUGGESTS EXCESSIVE AIRBAG INFLATION PRESSURE. 3. BODY TO FRAME ATTACHMENT FAILURE, EXACERBATING INTRUSION OF ENGINE AND FRONTAL COLLAPSE/COMPRESSION. THE ACCIDENT WAS INVESTIGATED BY THE CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY PATROL (REPORT AVAILABLE) AND OCCURRED ON STATE ROUTE 178 ON MAY 27, 2015, ABOUT 25 MILES EAST OF BAKERSFIELD, CALIFORNIA.

I HAVE A FRIEND WHO HAD A 2006 TOYOTA TUNDRA THAT WAS INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE TRUCKED ROLLED OVER FROM FRONT TO BACK AND COMING TO A REST ON ALL 4 WHEELS. THE SIDE IMPACT AIR BAGS DEPLOYED BUT THE FRONTS DID NOT. THE VEHICLES DASHBOARD WAS BLOW APART UPON IMPACT AND THE FRONT END IS COMPLETELY SMASHED IN. *TR

MY COMPLAINT IS AGAINST THE RULING. "THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION HAS RULED THAT TOYOTA MUST RECALL NEARLY 160,000 TUNDRA PICKUPS BUILT BETWEEN 2003 AND 2005 IN ORDER TO DEACTIVATE THE FRONT-SEAT PASSENGER AIR BAG CUT-OFF SWITCH IN EACH TRUCK. THE TUNDRA'S FAIL TO MEET ANY NHTSA REGULATIONS THAT REQUIRE VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR BAG CUT-OFF SWITCHES TO ALSO HAVE LATCH (LOWER ANCHORAGES AND TETHERS FOR CHILDREN) SYSTEMS. DEACTIVATING THE CUT-OFF SWITCHES WAS DEEMED LESS EXPENSIVE THAN RETROFITTING THE TUNDRA'S WITH THE LATCH SYSTEM." GREAT RULING, HOW DOES THIS PROTECT MY 6 YEAR OLD SITTING IN THE FRONT, IN A BOOSTER SEAT USING THE SEAT BELT. BOOSTER SEATS DON'T REQUIRE A LATCH SYSTEM BUT HIS WEIGHT IS BELOW WHAT IS CONSIDERED SAFE FOR AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. MY SCENARIO IS EXACTLY WHAT THE CUTOFF SWITCH WAS INTENDED FOR, MY 6 YEAR OLD OCCASIONALLY RIDING IN THE FRONT WITH ME. THIS RULING HAS CAUSED TOYOTA TO FACTORY DISABLE THE FRONT SWITCH IN MY '06 DOUBLE CAB TUNDRA, MAKING THE FRONT SEAT VERY UNSAFE FOR A CHILD IN A BOOSTER SEAT. WAY TO GO, THANKS FOR THINKING OF EVERYTHING. *JB
