Takata recall with two accidents involving deer collisions, one on 11/19/2016, and a severe one on 2/27/2017, 2/27/2017 almost totaled the car!! air bags never deployed in either accident!!!!
My daughter was on a 2 lane stretch of I-15 highway southbound, approx 7 miles North of lasvegas nv. She was in the left lane slowly creeping by a 18 wheel rig w/trailer. She was doing 74 with cruise control and witnesses say the rig must have been doing 73mph. He violently turned into her lane causing her to do evasive maneuver left and brake hard skidding into the soft shoulder then spinning clockwise crossing to the right side hitting a small shoulder elevation change with both drivers side wheels, causing a double roll over and a cartwheel landing on the trunk, then coming to a rest on the roof. Not a single air bag deployed! she suffered multiple blunt hits to the head from hitting against the door, she has a concussion with sprained shoulder and ankles. Granted she should be in much worse condition but we are grateful she had her blankets and her dogs beds that flew from the back seat to the front helping to keep her padded from even more trauma. I feel that a side curtain and steering bag should have deployed. Is this a fluke that Toyota engineers missed" because no particular corner was impacted" the rollover impacts were at the wheels, just above both bumpers and the entire roof area.
I purchased a used 2015 Toyota Corolla with about 27,085miles, in June 2016. Three months later, the steering wheel locked while driving down the street. I could not turn the wheel and the brakes would not work. By having no control of the car, it crashed into a parked vehicle. There was minor damage to the parked vehicle. The Corolla had major damage because all the air bags were deployed. This occured three blocks from home, on a city street. No speeding was involved and no citations were issued by the police
The contact owns a 2015 Toyota Corolla. While driving 25 mph, the vehicle independently accelerated and the accelerator pedal became stuck to the floorboard. As a result, the contact crashed into another vehicle and the air bags failed to deploy. The contact was not injured. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The vehicle was taken to a collision center to be repaired for the body damage. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 11,000.
I had a 2006 Toyota Corolla which would not pass inspection due to takata airbag recall with no parts available for estimated 1 to 2 years. So I had to trade it on a new 2015 Toyota since no other manufacturer would take it and I could not sell it as is. Toyota would and will not tell me if 2015 Corolla has takata airbags so it must have them. Thus, this 2015 car should be on recall as well. I understand Toyota is no longer using takata as a source for airbags. They have a system on my new car which shuts off the passenger airbag if no one is in that seat but that is not a satisfactory solution. Takata airbags are life threatening and should be removed from car and replaced at Toyota's expense.
I was driving brand new vehicle only 2 hours old. I was in extreme right lane when tractor trailer from middle lane attempted to change lanes, into my lane severely impacting drivers side of vehicle no side air bags deployed and traffic in front of me came to a sudden unexpected slow down and I impacted vehicle in front of me and again no air bags deployed also when tractor trailer hit me I immediately hit brakes and both front tires exploded. No safety items in car deployed causing me to have multiple injuries
I got the crash from passenger side, so they replaced two doors. But, side airbag was not deployed. So, my wife was smashed to the window. Fortunately. She was not hurt much. How does side airbag deploy" how much is the accident can deploy" they, Toyota, are not answer to me.
My vehicle slammed into the back of a stopped vehicle after I pressed on the brakes. My entire front end was extremely damaged. My 14 year old average sized daughter was sitting in the passenger seat. Air bags did not deploy. My car was extremely damaged (the entire front end---hood and all. It was smoking after the crash).
Stopped at stop light to make left had turn. Was waved on by driver in opposite lane as I started to make the turn I was hit by on coming car. Upon impact all air bags deployed, including side air bags which shouldn't of happened since the impact of the car was in the front. The side air bag hit the passenger which caused him to be injured.
