TSB Document:

Affected Component: AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION

Summary
Dealer Letter: The front passenger seat assembly is equipped with sensors for the occupant classification system which are used to control the operation of supplemental restraint systems (SRS), including the front passenger airbag. The sensors classify the weight of the occupant and activate or deactivate the front passenger airbag accordingly. Additionally, the sensors are used to detect certain vehicle collisions. Due to the current collision detection thresholds, the system may interpret certain occupant seating usages or road conditions as a rear collision and illuminate the Airbag Warning Light and "AIR BAG OFF" indicator, disabling the front passenger air bag. This LSC will be available until December 31, 2017, and will only be available at an authorized Toyota Dealer.
