Our Toyota Corolla has 2 safety recalls for the air bag system. One recall has been done but the other one we have to wait for the parts. After one recall was done the dealership found the airbag light on showing a code b1811 for spiral cable. I was told that part is not covered in the recall. They also told me that means the driver airbag is deactivated. I have found that there is a recall for this spiral cable with other Corolla's but not for 2003. Obviously there are problems with the airbag systems so can NHTSA please look into this. This vehicle is my 17 year olds car and I am very concerned about his safety. Thank you.

I have my Toyota Corolla 2003 air bag light on for 3 months now, there is no recall activated or the bottom line there is no letter or a message to inform me that my car has to be fixed. I drive 150 miles a day and the risk is higher since the air back are not functional. Why do we have to wait for a crash and death occurs then push for activation for recall. On your website you suggested to call Toyota service, I did , I have to pay for the fix. Not sure where to go at this point. **** the incident date above is the date that the airbag light turned on.

I received a recall on my airbags a few months back. I took it to dealership last week and was told that there were two parts recalled. The dealership fixed those but then told me that my airbag light will stay on because I also need a new spiral cord which is not recalled. They wanted $500. 00 bucks! after reading multiple complaints for the same thing, I am outraged that people have been hurt over this issue. The airbag either won't go off when needed, or it can deploy at any given moment. As you can imagine, I am terrified to drive my car knowing that it could go off at any moment. I feel like its a ticking time bomb. I have always raved about Toyota and what great cars they have and that I would never drive anything else. After calling the customer care line, I soon realized that they don't care at all. The rep was rude, and basically said that there was nothing she could do. This is a safety issue and can hurt people! I will never purchase another Toyota again. . And I have informed my family that if I die in an accident from this issue, that they go full force after Toyota. They don't care for the owners well being. I am not the first to complain about this and won't be the last. Lets pray nothing happens to me or anyone else.

Toyota recalled the vehicle to replace a defective harness on air bag system. We brought the vehicle in to a Toyota dealership to have this work done. Less than four weeks later, the air bag light starting staying on all the time indicating that the air bag is disabled; this condition makes the car dangerous to drive. We brought the vehicle back to the dealership. We were told that we would have to pay approximately $550 to replace the spiral cable. Prior to having the recall work done, there was never any problem with the airbag or the airbag lights. The spiral cable issue is a safety issue and should be dealt with by Toyota at least under circumstances when it is related to the other airbag recalls.
