Air Bag Light On problems of the 2005 Toyota Prius

When I go to hit the brakes the car won't stop and the rear end makes noise and raises up. The abs and brake lights are one as well as maintenance required and srs airbag light. The master alarm buzzer is on and won't go off. Brakes engaged without hitting the brake causes rim to overheat and brake fluid gets extremely hot. Also sometimes when tap on the brakes they will lock up and you will go sliding sideways or tap the brakes and they straight to the floor. Also the brake actuator starts whining noise and won't go off even if the car is turned off. Don't have documentation from a mechanic but can send video of driving it.

Takara recall - currently have an airbag light onon my instrument cluster. Brake actuator recall - the �brake� light, vsc, abs, and brake symbol lights are all on indicating an issue with the brake actuator. I did receive a recall notice about this issue in the past, but the recall said if I wasn't experiencing any issues to ignore the recall. That recall expired on December 31, 2017. As this affects the safe operation of the car, I feel this should be addressed by Toyota as well as the air bag issue.

Air bag light started staying on though intermittent. Noticed it went away if steering wheel was turned. I just had the dealership confirm it is the clockspring.

The airbag indicator light on the dashboard of my Prius came on and would not go off. On 3/14/2015, I took the Prius to a dealership for a diagnostic check. I was told by the technician that both the drivers and passenger side squib airbag harness would need replacement at a cost of $4,373. 07. There was no accident or any outside force to cause the problem. It appeared out of the blue when I started the car on the morning of 3/11/2015. The car is otherwise in near perfect condition.

On 2/27/14 the srs indicator light in our vehicle lit up causing us to review the owner's manual, which recommended immediate service. Per technical service bulletin t-sb-0042-11, this issue was caused by failure of the wiring harness, which was diagnosed with scanner code b1826. According to the TSB, the design/material fault can occur in 2004-2009 Priuses. The fault, according to a Toyota service advisor, results in a failure of the air bag system. To address the condition, "an updated wire harness must be installed. " the cost to repair this design fault is $2,500. And up depending on if one or both sides of the wiring harness has to be replaced. Because this safety related defect needed to be addressed at once we paid to have the vehicle repaired but expressed our view to the Toyota personnel that the defect should have been covered by Toyota. We feel that this defect should have been the subject of a recall. Calls to the gm of the dealership have not been returned.
