The airbag warning light came on when I started the car and stayed on. I contacted the dealer and found out that my vehicle was under recall for the airbag. I took it in and had that repair done, but the warning light did not go off. The dealer said it needs a new spiral cable assembly, at a cost of nearly $500. The dealer said the airbag may not inflate during a crash. In searching the internet for information about this repair, I discovered that other Toyota are under recall for this same problem. I would like my vehicle to be considered for inclusion in this recall and the cost of repair covered.
Nothing happened when I notified my dealer in medford Oregon last year. I called and asked to be notified when they received replacement airbags neccause when I called to get the recall taken care of, they said they were out of stock.. I have not heard back and am still waiting. Please ask the Toyota dealer to call me. [xxx] within 6 months. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Takata recall - I took my car to make the labor because the takata recall and few month later the light of the air bag in the front panel is on (red). Then I take my other car (the same model and year except for the color) and happen the same thing. Today both cars have the airbag light on. No body have found why, but it was after the labor because of the recall of the airbags. I dont remember right now the specific date.
