Toyota Recall : Driver's Air Bag May Not Deploy
2006 Toyota RAV4
If the FFC is damaged, connectivity to the driver's air bag module could be lost and the air bag deactivated. The failure of the driver's air bag to deploy in the event of a crash that typically necessitates deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver.
Air Bags — Frontal — Driver Side — Inflator Module
