Front impact crash at an estimated 30 mph. Drivers airbag did not deploy resulting in a concussion and a loss of work for two weeks. This airbag has been recalled in southern states, but not where I live. Updated 05/11/15 updated 05/14/15
I received a letter from Toyota that my passenger side air bag needed to be replaced. I called the dealer and made an appointment. I was told it would take about an hour and a half to complete the work. 20 min. Later I was told that the work would not be done because I didn't live in an area that needed a new airbag. I asked why I got the letter then. I was told they would contact Toyota and give me an answer within 24 hours. I did not hear from them. This last week I got a call from Toyota to tell me that I needed to take my car in to a dealer and have the passenger side airbag replaced. I told the person what had happened before. She assured me that this time the work would be done. She connected me to the dealer and I made the appointment. I took the car in. They called me and told me they needed the car for a longer time due to some communication problems with Toyota. I picked up my car after the service department had closed. I called the next day and asked why the work hadn't been done. They said they didn't have the part needed to do the replacement. They have had my car twice for the same recall and I still don't have the problem taken care of. I feel they should not have made an appointment if they did not have the part. I feel that they are giving me the run around and have no intention of replacing the airbag.

The airbag light comes on out of nowhere and for no reason. Stayed on ever since. I did nothing and no accident what so ever. Took the vehicle to Toyota grapevine Texas and they told me that the spiral cable went wrong. Had it tested by another mechanic and found it no problem at all. Toyota has recalled Corolla for every model between 2000 to 2008 but 2005 Corolla on the airbag issue. And based on my experience and what I have researched online, I think a recall for the airbag issue of 2005 Corolla is due.

I was sent a letter from Toyota notifying me that my 2005 Toyota Corolla S is part of the tekata air bag inflator module recall I was instructed to take my car in to the local dealer to get this issue fixed. The Toyota fix which was not a fix at all was to disable my front passenger air bag and hang a warning sign not to have anyone ride in the front passenger seat. It has been nearly three months that I have not been able to use my front passenger seat. I feel three months is more than long enough to have this issue resolved. I only own one car and need the front passenger seat to provide transportation for my family. I have called both Toyota corporate and the local dealer and not getting any resolution.
I received a safety recall from Toyota on my car. The safety recall was for the front passenger air bag inflator assembly. The notice I received indicated to take the vehicle into the dealer & they would replace the inflator assembly. My daughter has the car at college & took it into the dealer for the safety recall. The Toyota dealer did not replace the inflator assembly but instead turned off the air bag & put a sticker on the dashboard that no one could ride in the front seat. While this takes care of Toyota's liability it does not solve the problem with my car. The dealer mentioned that Toyota was not going to replace the part at all. I spoke to Toyota & they said that they would eventually replace the part but did not know when.
