Ever since I bought this car I have been having an issue where the srs airbag malfunction light comes on and my airbags are off seatbelts don't get recognized as buckled in. I have taken this car to the dealership numerous times to get it checked out but they cant seem to find a problem or solution. This is a major safety issue and I would really like someone to get involved in this issue and help me figure out my next steps because of what they tell me is that they just reset the modue and it never comes back on until 2-3 months from after they chekc it out and reset it. Please help me.
While driving onto an exit ramp I applied my brakes to my 2019 Toyota Highlander but the engine just roared up, took my foot off the brake and applied both feet to the brakes and the engine roared up again, I then came up right behind a car at the intersection and the front end collision did not stop me so I survived to the left lane but then I was headed into the highway and was t-boned by another Toyota Highlander and came to a stop on the right side of the highway. All the air bags deployed in the other SUV but none deployed in mine. The fireman had to use the jaws of life to get me out of the SUV. My wife and I were very shook up but had no serious injuries. But my brakes, the front-end collision, and the airbags all failed in the Toyota. My Highlander was totaled by my insurance company but they will not investigate the failures.
Other car pulled into intersection causing our Highlander to collide with turning vehicle. T collision. None of the airbags deployed. Speeds around 35 mph. Car totaled and I sustained severe concussion. Was wearing seatbelt.
Vehicle was in motion and collided with another vehicle in a t fashion, was pushed to the left and ran into additional 2 poles, then stopped. The vehicle was at approximate speed of 40-45 mph at the time of collision with the other vehicle. The airbags of the vehicle (Toyota) did not deploy during any of the collision events: the other vehicle or when it hit the poles.
