These vehicles had their driver or passenger frontal air bag inflators previously replaced under a prior recall using inflators of the same design. The inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, temperature and temperature cycling.
An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Toyota will notify owners. Depending on the vehicle model, dealers will replace the front driver inflator, front passenger airbag inflator, the airbag assembly, or the front passenger airbag sub-assembly and inflator. The recall began November 20, 2019. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371 or Lexus customer service at 1-800-255-3987. Toyota's numbers for this recall are J0A, J0B, and J0C.

This is to address a safety defect in the passenger side frontal air bag inflator which may produce excessive internal pressure causing the inflator to rupture upon deployment of the air bag. This recall addresses both the passenger side frontal air bags that were originally installed in the vehicles, as well as replacement air bags that may have been installed as replacement service parts. A replacement air bag may have been installed, as one example, if a vehicle had been in a crash necessitating the replacement of the passenger side frontal air bag.
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants potentially resulting in serious injury or death.

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR MODULE, TELLING ME THAT I WILL BE CONTACTED WHEN THE "SUFFICIENT PARTS HAVE BEEN PRODUCED AND THE REMEDY CAN BE PERFORMED." THIS LETTER IS ABOUT A YEAR OLD. I WANT TO KNOW WHY I HAVE NEVER BEEN CONTACTED AND/OR WHY THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE, AND FRANKLY A CRIME IT ITSELF. THE LETTER GOES ON TO SAY, "UNTIL THE REMEDY BECOMES AVAILABLE IN YOUR LOCATION, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE WITH AN OCCUPANT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT." THUS I HAVE NO ABILITY TO USE THIS CAR FOR TRANSPORTING MY FAMILY DUE TO THE FACT THAT THIS AIR BAG COULD POTENTIALLY KILL THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER... I WOULD LIKE AN EXPLANATION AS TO WHY I CONTINUE TO BE INCONVENIENCED BY A RECALL THAT IS NOT BEING ADDRESSED.

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICE (INTERIM NOTICE) RE THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR MODULE FROM TOYOTA MONTHS AGO, THOUGH I NOTICED THAT THERE IS NO DATE ON IT. IT STATES: ". . . WE WILL SEND YOU ANOTHER NOTIFICATION ONCE SUFFICIENT PARTS HAVE BEEN PRODUCED AND THE REMEDY CAN BE PERFORMED." I'VE HEARD NOTHING SINCE. NEWS OF ANOTHER AUTOMOBILE MANUFACTURER'S RECALL PROMPTED ME TO WONDER WHY I HAVEN'T HEARD FROM TOYOTA AGAIN AFTER ALL THIS TIME. I CALLED A LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED THAT THEY HAVE THE PARTS NEEDED AND SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPOINTMENT FOR TOMORROW, FOR WHICH I AM GRATEFUL. MY COMPLAINT IS THE FACT THAT I HAVE HEARD NOTHING FROM TOYOTA AFTER THE INTERIM NOTICE EVEN THOUGH THOSE "SUFFICIENT PARTS HAVE BEEN PRODUCED AND THE REMEDY CAN BE PERFORMED." I WONDER HOW MANY OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS ARE STILL OUT THERE WAITING FOR "ANOTHER NOTIFICATION," WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE SENT TO THEM. I HOPE TOYOTA IS BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE REGARDING GETTING THE NOTIFICATIONS TO TOYOTA OWNERS IN A TIMELY MANNER. I DON'T THINK THE COMPANY DID THAT IN MY CASE.
