I was driving on the freeway on Monday Dec 28 heading to work it was raining hard and was driving at the same speed as everyone else in the freeway out of nowhere my steering took over control and I spinned around hitting the carpool lane divider and was tossed to the 4th lane afterwards. At that moment I was in front of a semi truck and couldn't brake in time and hit me sending me back to the carpool lane any time of those hits my air bags never turned on.

"takata recall" my daughter was driving on the highway and the driver side "side airbags" deployed for no reason what so ever. Just so happen, the police was driver in the next lane over and witnessed the whole thing. I am having a horrible experience dealing with Toyota. I chose Toyota because of the reliability of the car and this the the 2nd brand new Toyota for my daughter. After this experience, this will be the last.

My fianc had a seizure while driving her Scion Tc (2015). She ran into the dumpster at a coffee shop. Witnesses and authorities confirmed the speed was significant enough for airbags to deploy. Because of her body seizing she accelerated. Customers and employees inside the coffee shop heard the crash. The dumpster is all the way in the rear of the building. The airbags did not deploy. As a result she is suffering injuries sustained.
