Seven problems related to side/window air bag have been reported for the 2006 Lexus ES330. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Passenger side airbag seal is broken on dash and appears as it could inflate at any moment. No accidents to cause this.
Passenger side air bag cover is bulging seems to be caused by pressure.
Front passenger side airbag on the dah board is cracked and slightly protruding I am afraid this will explode while travelling checked with Lexus they say it's not under warranty and there is no recall - anyone had information on this would appreciate it.
The edges around the passenger side airbag cracking and the condition keeps deteriorating as time goes by. I'm worried about the safety of my family as we use the car all the time. We contacted a local Lexus dealer and we told the same thing as rest of the folks experienced with dealers.
Similar to other complaints I have seen online and on this site, my front passenger side air bag is bulging and appears to be partially coming out. Picture included. I have raised this to my local Lexus dealership service on a couple of occasions, and they do not seem concerned and will not do anything about it. We are quite concerned about this air bag either deploying when it should not, or not deployed when it needs to. It seems to be failing. It also appears to be getting worse over time.
The seal around the front passenger side airbag has deteriorated, with a bulge forming in the dashboard.
Dashboard passenger side airbag cover is bulging and deteriating, concern it may pop open, dealship will not fix since its out of warranty, they will repair it for $2500, definetly a manifacture defect but they don't care! thanks!.
