I went to the my local Toyota dealership to remedy the suspension spring gas tank puncture recall on my Toyota and they said, they couldn't do it cause my truck has a body lift.

Due to combination of the spiral cable design and characteristics unique to the chassis components of the Tacoma, steering wheel vibration (¿flutter¿) caused friction between the flexible flat cable (ffc) and the retainer in the spiral cable assembly in the steering wheel. This occurred in a ffc with sixteen-channel circuits and damaged certain circuits on the flat cable that provides connectivity to the driver¿s air bag module. As a result, connectivity was lost and the air bag warning lamp illuminated. In addition, the driver¿s air bag may have become deactivated, causing it to not deploy in the event of a crash. This could increase the risk of injury to the driver. The 2007 Toyota Tacoma with a ffc with seven channel-circuits have already been recalled for this problem. Indications of a developing problem was first noted through illumination of the airbag warning lamp illuminated after starting the vehicle and rotating the steering wheel. Vehicle mileage was approximately 125,000 miles at that time. Initially the lamp would cycle off and on with the frequency of the lamp in the on position increasing over time. This suggested that the loss of connectivity was a result of increased wear in certain circuits. Eventually the lamp would stay on continuously indicating that all connectivity was lost in the driver's airbag control module. Vehicle was taken to dealer for service at a mileage of 129,094 and the problem was corrected at a cost of $461. 83 plus tax.

Takata recall- I had a accident while vehicle was in motion which caused air bag deployment. Injuries included facial cut to chin requiring external and internal stitches, a concussion, black eye and other cuts ( have photographs that could not be uploaded due to size) takata informed me I may have claim. I filled out there forms only to be denied three times, the last one due to my vehicle not on recall list. My question is why is my vehicle not on recall when I have suffered the exact injury's from the air bag as described in the recall. Thank you.
