general problems of the 2014 Toyota Prius

I was in stop and go traffic. We got into a crash and my vehicle was totalled. I’ve never been in an accident before. It felt like the break system just broke down.

Passenger airbag indicator on/off light was on despite having passenger over the airbag activation weight requirement being present with seatbelt buckled. Brought car to Toyota dealership and after running diagnostics for two hours they found that the airbag itself is faulty.

My 2014 Toyota Prius was in a t-bone accident, directly on the driver door and the side air bags did not deploy.

Airbags did not deploy when I got into an accident on I-91. The car has been totaled and is in allstate's possession, and I believe it is available for inspection. My safety was put at risk because the airbags didn't deploy in a head-on collision with multiple objects (reflector pole, trees). The vehicle is in the process of being inspected by allstate insurance representatives. There were no warning messages or symptoms prior to this incident.

My airbags deployed prior to impact at a speed of less than 25 mph. I applied the brakes very forcefully and the airbags deployed prior to impact. I had little front end damage and every single airbag deployed.

Seat belt light stayed on, swerve light occasionally. Proved to be rodent damage on wire instruments and blower, panel instrument, antenna assemblies reaching $3,900. Vehicle parked outside residential building on public street in cold rainy weather. Vehicle in excellent condition. Never had such a problem with any other vehicles while living here over 20 years. Could soy based encasing around wiring contribute to this?.

I purchased the vehicle brand new from a dealership. Within a few weeks, I noticed that when my husband sat in the front passenger seat (300lbs) the notification light said "passenger air bag on". When my stepson sat in the front passenger seat the light said "passenger air bag off". I took a picture to show the notification light and the size of my 15 yr old stepson 5' 10" & 175lb-fully adult size. I called the dealership and they told me they had "never heard of the problem" and said it was just that the passenger airbag needed to be recalibrated. After doing some searching, I realized that the 2012-2013 models have already been recalled for that exact same reason. I am very concerned that the problem has not been fixed with Toyota, and that new cars are being sold with the same problem. Needless to say, I am not happy with Toyota right now and this is a huge safety problem. I also have concerns about the back seat belts not latching properly when a car seat is being used, but that's another story. . . .
