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.

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.

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.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT ON MY DASHBOARD WILL NOT TURN OFF. EVEN AFTER RESET IT STILL COMES BACK
Power train, Dec 14, 2019
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, IT IS MORE LIKE A QUESTION ABOUT MY CONCERN ABOUT A COMMON MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. I DO NOT HAVE SERIOUS ISSUE AT THIS TIME BUT I GOT SOME ALARMING SIGN ON MY VEHICLE THAT I AM AFRAID IT COMES BACK. I HAVE NOTICED TONS OF COMPLAINT ONLINE ABOUT TOYOTA COROLLA 2007 GIVING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WITH THE CODE P0741, YOU CAN ALREADY FIND IT ONLINE AND MANY OF THE OWNER SEEMS TO BE FRUSTRATED ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IN MANY CASES CAR DOES NOT HAVE ANY ISSUE BUT THE LIGHT COMES AND GO, SPECIALLY WITH THE S MODEL. IT INCLUDES CARS WITH 50,000 MILES AND ABOVE. THE NUMBER OF CASES SEEMS TO BE SIGNIFICANT AND TOYOTA DEALERS SEEM TO OFFER TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY THE PRICE OF THE CAR. I HAVE SEEN A RECALL FOR 2005 AND 006 COROLLA FOR COMPUTER CHANGE WITH SIMILAR ERROR CODE BUT WITH THIS HIGH NUMBER OF COMPLAINT, I COULD NOT FIND ANY RECALL FOR COROLLA 2007. THE CODE IS MOST OFTEN READ AS SOLENOID ISSUE WHILE TOYOTA DEALERS SUGGESTED TO REPLACE THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION IN ALL CASES(BASED ON REVIEWS). I BELIEVE YOU MAY NEED TO LOOK INTO IT AS IT IS QUIET FREQUENT AND MAY CAUSE SAFETY ISSUE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMPUTER OR ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL. (BUT TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION GENERALLY COULD CAUSE SERIOUS ISSUE ON THE ROAD OR HIGHWAYS) PLEASE LET ME KNOW ABOUT YOUR OPINION ON THIS MATTER. (I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU ARE ALSO INVESTIGATING A COMMON MANUFACTURER DEFECT, I WAS NOT SURE WHERE I SHOULD REPORT THIS MATTER) THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION

I HAVE RECEIVED THREE (3) SEPARATE RECALL NOTICES TO FIX THE AIRBAG ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF MY VEHICLE. TOYOTA HAS NOT ALLOWED ME TO DRIVE A SAFE VEHICLE IN OVER 10 YEARS. I DO NOT FEEL CONFIDENT THAT THEY WILL EVER MAKE IT SAFE. THE NHTSA NEEDS TO STEP IN AND FIX THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY. EVEN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA HAS STEPPED IN WITH A CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT. TOYOTA AND TAKATA SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO DO BUSINESS IN THE UNITED STATES UNTIL ALL OF THIS IS SUCCESSFULLY RESOLVED.

NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING, REGARDLESS OF SPEED (SOMETIMES ON THE HIGHWAY AT 75 MPH, OTHERS WHEN PULLING OUT FROM A STOP TO CROSS A BUSY INTERSECTION), THE VEHICLE SEIZES AND I LOSE CONTROL OF ALL ACCELERATION AND BRAKING MECHANISMS, WHILE THE ENGINE REVS AND THE CAR SLOWS TO ALMOST TOTAL STOP, WITH MY ONLY HOPE OF SWERVING INTO A DITCH TO AVOID BEING REAR ENDED BY THE CARS AND MASSIVE MAC TRUCKS BEHIND MY VEHICLE, IMPOSSIBLE TO AVOID COLLIDING ON THE NARROW STEEP RURAL ROADS. IN THE COURSE OF ONE MILE, TODAY SPECIFICALLY, THE VEHICLE CONVULSED AND SEIZED FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS, WHERE I COULD ONLY TURN MY BLINKER ON AND HOPE PEOPLE COULD GO AROUND ME. I LONG CONSIDERED THIS ISSUE RELATED TO SLIPPERY ROAD CONDITIONS, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT IT FEELS LIKE, THOUGH EXPERIENCING THE TERROR OF LOSING COMPLETE CONTROL ON A HOT SUNNY, DRY DAY LAST SUMMER PUT THE SEVERITY OF THIS ISSUE INTO PERSPECTIVE- THE DRIVER NEEDS TO BE IN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND THE FULL OPERATOR OF EVERY FUNCTION TO PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM BECOMING A DEADLY WEAPON. THIS VEHICLE INHIBITS MY ABILITY TO PREVENT HARM. IN TRYING TO DIAGNOSE THIS ISSUE, I HAVE SPENT TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, AND THE VEHICLE STILL REMAINS UNSAFE. ON 4/9/18, I SPENT $2,065.29 TO REPLACE WHEEL BEARINGS FOR THE SECOND TIME IN UNDER A YEAR AND A HALF, AS WELL AS SERVICED THE EMERGENCY BREAK, PURCHASED NEW TIRES YET AGAIN, AND REBUILT THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION. BACK ON 11/20/17, THE VEHICLE RECEIVED BRAND NEW LF WHEEL BEARING AND BRAND NEW SPARK PLUGS FOR $535.29 TO CURE THE POWER ISSUE, TO NO AVAIL. ONLY 8 MONTHS EARLIER ON 3/30/17, I SPENT IN EXCESS OF $1200 TO SERVICE THE STRUTS, SHOCKS, REAR BRAKES, BREAK PADS, RODARS, BRAKE CALLIPERS, AND REAR EMERGENCY BREAK, AND STILL THE ISSUE PERSISTED. THE ENGINE, WHEELS, AND BRAKES OF THIS 2007 TOYOTA MATRIX CONTINUE TO IMPEDE MY ABILITY TO KEEP THE PEOPLE ON THE ROAD SAFE.
