I am an older gal with no car...my daughter gave me her car so I could take my 95 year old mom around. One day the airbag light came on. I took it in and the man said it would be $700. I don't have any extra money. Today I saw the takata airbag recall on television. I called Toyota..they said mine was not on the list. Just because it wasn't on the recall list....who is to say this airbag on this Scion is not takatas fault too. It makes no sense to me.....if there are airbag problems on all these Toyota's.......why would not mine be included...I have been driving around with it like this because I do not have an extra $700 to fix it. Can't there be something done to help me out........thank you for listening to me...... I was just driving around and the airbag light came on. Yes...use this email address to alert me of any recalls.fron the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration...thank you....(I had to put this here because the computer would not let me check yes.

Last Friday another car hit up and air bag never

- Lancaster, PA, USA

Airbag indicator light has been on for a few years. Vehicle has never been in an accident. Was told dealership wouldn't cover to repair & that I must've been involved in an accident & that as long as the light is on that my airbags would not deploy if in a wreck. What a shame since I did pay extra for side curtain airbags when vehicle bought. Can't remember if car was moving when light came on. Love this car. Has 230K + miles but after reading other comments on same issue I will be considering something other than Toyota for next vehicle

On September 9, 2015 after starting the car at a store - the airbag light (SRS light) came on and stayed on. The owners manual said to contact Toyota immediately or take the car in to a dealer. I called stevinson Toyota/Scion in Aurora, co where the car was purchased 10 years ago. The first available service appointment was in two days on 9/11/15. The service representative said that the only problem might be if I got into an accident and the air bag might not deploy but this did not alleviate my concerns so I did not drive unless necessary. At the dealer they told me that I would have to pay $185 to have the car checked out even though I insisted that this was a safety issue and should be under warranty, but to no avail. After checking the car out Toyota replaced a spiral cable and charged me $585 total. I again insisted to the service manager that this should be a safety issue and covered by Toyota, but again was denied. When I searched the internet for this issue I found that this was a common and recurring problem for Scion (especially the spiral cable). Later I contacted Toyota directly to plead the case for making this a safety/warranty item I was told basically - tough luck - the car had more than 50, 000 miles and older than 5 years. I believe Toyota is wrong on this and because of the huge problems with air bags on their cars they should consider this a serious safety issue and cover it under warranty. As a side note - while driving with the air bag light on - my wife wanted to carry a big knife in the front seat so that we could get out if it malfunctioned!

Airbags did not deploy, vehicle speed was 45 mph. The entire front end was damaged. Swerved to miss hitting a deer, spun out and hit an embankment. Point of impact was drivers side front and nothing, not one airbag deployed.

The airbag light comes on after driving a few miles. Car taken to dealer and I was told it was the electrical cable inside the steering column that had "failed". this is the part that controls airbag deployment. I asked if the company (Toyota) would assist with the replacement, and was told "no. Some just fail. That's part of owning a car." The part is on order, and the repair is going to cost $530 - $300 for the part, $100 labor and $130 for the diagnosis. All this for a part that "_failed_" this happened under normal driving conditions and I was _not_ in an accident of any sort, nor did I contribute to its failure. This part _failed_- wondering if the part is defective and what assistance Toyota will give me.

Started to slow down, when the left rear tire blow out and cause the lost of control, spin 3 times and crashing into the guide rail.
