3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/29/2018

Air bags (manufacture unknown) on sept 29, 2018 while driving on a two lane highway at 50 mph, my steering wheel and knee bags inflated for no reason. I applied the brakes and lost sight of the road for several seconds because of the fog on the windshield. When the fog cleared, I could see that I was going to end up in a field and that I had crossed the center line. I tried to back out of the field but could not because of the muddy conditions. I called my wife, told her the air bags had inflated for no reason. I asked her to call aaa for a tow truck. While speaking to her, a man walked up to ask if I was okay. I said yes. He then asked if I realized I had hit an oncoming vehicle. I was not. I had not seen any other vehicle because of the "fog" from the air bag. I asked him what vehicle and he pointed to a man in a red shirt standing in front of a white pickup with duel rear wheels. I told my wife I needed to go see if anyone was injured, got out of my truck and walked back to the other truck. No one was injured in the accident. I was told by my insurance adjuster that there was approximately $7,000 damage to the other truck. My vehicle was totaled.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/30/2014

Body computer failed disabling the emergency flashers, turn signals, tach, speedometer, air bags, abs,stability control, and rendering the truck's controller area network (can-bus) network unusable for normal and emergency needs. Engine would run, transmission would shift, but the safety features of the Tundra appeared to be disabled along with the flashers, turn signals, tach, and speedometer which were inoperative. I live near houston and Toyota has this part on backorder nationwide indicating this failure may be common with this and maybe other Tundra trucks. When the body computer fails the truck is unsafe to drive yet it can be driven!.
