A vehicle was travelling very slowly on a rural interstate as my Toyota Fj Cruiser approached in the same lane. The driver of the Fj Cruiser braked quickly to avoid hitting the slow moving vehicle. However, an 18-wheeler behind it could not stop fast enough. It rear-ended my Fj Cruiser sending the front-end colliding directly into the back of the slow moving vehicle. As the 18-wheeler continued forward, my Fj Cruiser was squeezed out from between the two vehicles and pushed into another lane. Both the driver and passenger of my Fj Cruiser were transported to the hospital for injuries. No airbags deployed at any time during the collision with the slow moving vehicle. Extensive damage to the front and rear of my vehicle resulted in a total loss.

2011 Toyota Fj Cruiser. Customer would like the car to be included in the recall regarding premature air bag deployment. Toyota claimed there were signs of water in the engine intake air system and there was no manufacturing or design defect with the air bags. The consumer stated his son did drive through a field with water and mud. However, it was after the air bags inadvertently deployed, so the presence of water had nothing to do with the deployment.

On Jan. 7th. Around 10:00pm my son and his cousin and her boy friend was going to the store for snacks. The road was covered with snow and he had the fjcruiser in 4-wheel drive. The fj crusier slid off the road and flipped over into the river. The vehicle has several air bags in it and not one of them deployed. Thank god, they were not hurt, although thye did go to the hospital. Need less to say the fjcrusier was totaled. No one of the air bags went off.
