Air bag warning light began flashing then stopped. Took to dealer who discovered a error code b0166 stored in the computer (open circuit in left side airbag) but was not flashing when evaluated. One day later the light again came on. The dealer wants $1700. 00 plus labor to fix and that it would be inoperative in an accident. I contacted Toyota--[xxx] at 800-331-4331 who advised me it was out of warranty and Toyota would take no responsibility for fixing a federally mandated safety feature which has no maintenance or wear and tear expectation. It is a part not expected to fail. I am now waiting on a supervisor, [xxx], to call me back but [xxx] assures me he will not be helpful either.

Srs warning light continues to illuminate at different occasions while driving. A recall was issued in 2014 and vehicle was taken to Toyota dealer for recall repair. After repair srs light continues to illuminate while driving. Vehicle was taken back to Toyota dealer for repair but nothing could be done because it could not be duplicated or diagnostic equipment could not find or pull any malfunction codes. What now???.
My air bag warning light has come on frequently while driving. The owners manual states to take it to the dealer immediately. Once there, the dealer states there is no code stored in the computer and there is nothing they can do. Once the car is restarted, the light is off, but comes on again a few days later. This has happened numerous times. I am worried of an air bag failure due to this indicator light, but the dealer can't help because of the lack of stored codes.

Picked up the car on 12/31/01 without any problems. Beginning 1/2/02, the front passenger srs warning light flashed on an off intermittently. Took to dealer 1/3/02. They determined that the wiring had been incorrectly routed under the front passenger bucket seat and had become crimped when the power seat was moved. The dealer is making the repairs which includes removal of the front passenger bucket seat. I am pleased with their response, but concerned that such a problem could occur and that there may very well be more cars with the same problem.
