Air bag indicator light has been on since at least 9/18/12. Several toyota technicians stated it was the squib cable in the steering wheel that needs replacement - other toyota representatives state that it is not the cable. I know the toyota tacoma (?) truck was recalled for a similar problem and the defect corrected. I cannot get a straight answer from toyota if the air bags will engage in a collision - some…

The dashboard of my toyota is falling apart. It is a safety hazard as it contains the passenger air bag. Additionally, the glare caused by the shine is very distracting both day and night as sunlight and lights reflect and blind the driver. I believe warranties should cover anything that is a defective part and that's what this is, a defective part, if a part is defective when you manufacturer the car or whether it…

In my 2007 toyota camry, at first (approx. 2011) the dashboard would feel sticky, as if something had spilled on it. However the stickiness could not be cleaned up. It was in fact the material of the dashboard melting. It continues to get worse and spreads across a larger area, to the point that now (2014) the dash cannot be touched without a mark being left in the melted material. It looks wet and is so glossy that…

I hit a bmw. I was changing the station in my car and when i looked up i was too close to the bmw to successfully stop before hitting them. As a result, because the bmw was completely stopped, a domino effect occurred in that the two cars in front of the bmw were also hit. The damage to the bmw, the car i directly hit, was a back bumper that was slightly de-attached from the car (moderate damage) and a the front…

The toyota dealer maintained that these covers were just cosmetic and that i could drive without covers and the car would still be completely safe. I did not want to drive it that way so i paid the dealer $ 71.78 for parts and…
