On November 26, 2013 at about 5 pm I drove out of a parking lot in the left lane taking a left turn and continued driving with the flow of traffic in the left lane, which was about 30 miles per hour; it was dark and starting to drizzle;I was wearing my seatbelt;I was suddenly hit from behind by a car and we crashed into the car in front of me;immediately upon rear impact I was thrown into the steering wheel at an angle hitting my sternum on the right side of the steering wheel;my injuries were a severely bruised sternum, and continuing neck and back injuries; my car was totaled;I contacted Toyota on November 30, 2013 to complain as my air bag did not deploy and my seatbelt did not lock;on January 16, 2014 I received a letter from Toyota stating that they inspected the car on December 23, 2013; I was told that I would receive a copy of the inspection, which I did not;the response from Toyota was that for the non-deployment of the air bag it was determined that the rear of the other vehicle overrode the front bumper of my vehicle;for the seatbelt failing to lock it was determined that there were no abnormalities observed with the seatbelt and latched;I am requesting an investigation of my complaint;although Toyota is stating that the seatbelt latched and released as designed my concern is not that the seatbelt latched and released but that the seatbelt failed to lock and I know that the seatbelt did not lock because if it had worked properly I would not have slammed into the steering wheel and the air bag did not deploy;Toyota stated that the inspection determined that the incident was not a result of a manufacturing or design defect;my complaint is not that the incident was caused by a defect with the car as that was caused by the other driver but that if the air bag and seatbelt functioned as expected, my injuries may have been avoided or not as severe.
We where driving back from a family function and when we got home, the seatbelt would not retract back in. We had been having trouble with the seatbelts locking for awhile but this was the first time the belt did not retract. I call the dealer and they told me it would be $800. 00 so I did not get it fixed because I could not afford it. The second seatbelt went out while we were driving at about 65mph and were at about 100,000 miles. The seatbelt locked so we removed it to reset it and heard a loud noise and then it stopped working. The third rear belt was a hard time retracting as well. The dealer tested it and it also failed their tests. The dealer now says that they are not responsible even though this is not mechanical failure and has nothing to do with mileage. This has been a safety issue and I should not have to put a dime into this repair.
