The airbag light comes on after driving a few miles. Car taken to dealer and I was told it was the electrical cable inside the steering column that had "failed". This is the part that controls airbag deployment. I asked if the company (Toyota) would assist with the replacement, and was told "no. Some just fail. That's part of owning a car. " the part is on order, and the repair is going to cost $530 - $300 for the part, $100 labor and $130 for the diagnosis. All this for a part that "_failed_" this happened under normal driving conditions and I was _not_ in an accident of any sort, nor did I contribute to its failure. This part _failed_- wondering if the part is defective and what assistance Toyota will give me.
