Completed, however, the car was in an accident following this repair and the airbags did not deploy. The car flipped and was smashed completely in the front and on the left side.

I recently had to take my car into the local Toyota dealership because my airbag light came on and would not go off. I told the service rep that I had just recently had brought it in on the recall issued regarding the airbag defect. I was told it would cost me $131 just to diagnosis it. I argued that it should not cost me anything since there was initial issues with the airbag. I called the recall people and they agreed with me. I took my car in and was told by the tech that the problem was related to the spiral coil cable in the airbag. He said it was a nonrelated issue, which I argued how could it not be if its related to the airbag. He told me that my airbag may or may not deploy because of the spiral coil. I fail to see how the 2 are not interconnected. If one part of the airbag manufacturing was defected then it only reasons that other parts of the airbag could also be defective. Since they both are related to deployment. If the manufacture could produce one defective part or use defective material why could it not be reasoned that other parts are defective too. The manufacture should be concerned with public and individual safety not profit. ! upon further investigation I found others are having the same issues. They made and expensive product at the cost of the consumer (lives, money, time, and safety). All airbag issues should be included in this recall until the proper issues is identified. Maybe the sensor and the spiral coil are connected in proper deployment. This needs to be investigated ASAP and another recall issued before more injuries and deaths occur. Consumer safety should be number 1 priority in fixing and resolving this issue. I scared to drive my car but I have to. !!! not knowing if the airbag will or will not deploy in the event of accident or if I hit a pot hole is just to risky. Toyota should fix all airbag complaints and issues without cost!!!.

My dad bought this car new in 2006 and he gave me the car in 2013. This car has hit dear head on in two separate occassions and the airbag never deployed on either occassion. Both car dear crashed happened when my dad was driving. On 2/1/15 I got into my car and was going to go on an errand. I started the car and the airbag light came on and stayed on. My dad checked the error code on the car and found it was b1181 which is the same code you have recalls on the 2010-2011 Corollas. I believe that my airbag failure is a direct result of the earlier 2 collisions, when the airbag failed to deploy during the car-deer accidents, and should be investigated for a possible recall.

Our Toyota Corolla 2006 had a srs air bag warning light come on. We took it to the dealership and we were informed that the driver?s airbag module is attached to a spiral cable assembly with electrical connections that have become damaged from turning the steering wheel. The damage to the spinal wire caused the air bag warning lamp to illuminate which means that the air bags may not deploy in an accident. The spinal cord needs to be replaced as well as the entire airbag system. There is a similar issue on other Corollas I believe they are years 2009 and 2010 and so I think this needs to be looked into since it is happening on our vehicle and probably others.

My daughter was involved in an accident, she was t-boned in the drivers door by a Mercedes Benz SUV going 40mph and the drivers side impact air bag did not deploy. The policewoman, emt, and tow truck driver all could not believe the air bag did not deploy. By the grace of god my daughter is going to be fine after some recovery time. However I feel had the air bag deployed her injuries would have been lessened considerably. When I purchased the car I purposely looked for one with the additional side impact air bags. I am very disturbed that this safety feature I had hoped would provide additional safety for my child failed so miserably.

The red warning airbag warning light came on and stayed on. Nothing happened, the airbags did not deploy but the red airbag light stayed on and is still on today. I called the local Toyota dealership in valdosta by interstate 75 and spoke with a mechanic about the airbag light that was staying on. He told me there was no danger of the airbag being deployed but if I wanted to get it checked out I would have to pay for the work. He assured me there was no danger of the airbags not working properly just because the red airbag light was staying on (on the dashboard). I did not get his name but I trusted his knowledge. Now that the airbag dangerous recalls are in the news I am concerned for possible safety. The red airbag light is still on. I want to know if there is any kind of danger for me. (I purchased this car from the above dealership in early 2007) thank you.

Granddaughter driving on county road evidently inattentive had to quickly stop because car in front of her stopped for red light. There had just been a short rain and road oils were present. Her car slide into the rear bumper of the SUV in front of her. I assume that the quick breaking caused the Toyota to nose dive under the rear bumper of the SUV.
