Air bags, air bag/restraint control moduleJan 17, 2020
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2011-2019 Corolla, 2011-2013 Matrix, 2012-2018 Avalon, and 2013-2018 Avalon Hybrid vehicles. During certain crashes, the air bag electronic control unit (ECU) may malfunction, possibly disabling the deployment of the air bags and/or seat belt pretensioners.
In the event of a crash, air bags and/or seat belt pretensioners that do not deploy as intended may increase the risk of injury.
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the ECU and install a noise filter between the air bag control module and its wire harness, as necessary, free of charge. Owners were notified of the safety risk beginning March 2, 2020. A second letter notifying owners of the remedy repair will be mailed between March 16, 2020 and June 27, 2020. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371. Toyota's numbers for this recall are 20TB03, 20TA03 and 20TA05.

Southeast Toyota will notify owners and provide a corrected label with instructions concerning its installation. A small group of the affected vehicles will need additonal remedies which are still being developed. The recall began on May 28, 2013. Owners may contact Southeast Toyota at 1-800-301-6859.

Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (SET) is recalling certain models interspersed through model years 2009 through 2013 as follows: model year 2009-2012 Tacoma, 4Runner, Camry, Camry Hybrid, Prius, and RAV4; model year 2009-2010 Avalon, FJ Cruiser, and Highlander Hybrid; model year 2010-2013 model year Corolla, Sienna and Tundra; model year 2009-2013 Highlander and Venza; model year 2012 Prius V; and model year 2010-2012 Sequoia. During modification by SET to include accessories such as leather seat covers, seat heaters or headrest DVD systems, these vehicles may not have had the passenger seat occupant sensing system calibration tested. Without passing the calibration test, the occupant sensing system may not operate as designed.
If the front passenger seat occupant sensing system is out of calibration, the front passenger airbags may not deploy or they may deploy inappropriately for the passenger's size and position. This could increase the risk of personal injury during the event of a vehicle crash necessitating airbag deployment.
Southeast Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will test the sensitivity of the occupant detection sensors, and recalibrate them as necessary. The recall began on March 21, 2013. Owners may contact Southeast Toyota at 1-800-301-6859.

TAKATA RECALL I'VE JUST BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL BUT THERE IS NOT YET A REMEDY? THE REMEDY IS TO REPLACE THE FAULTY AIR BAG THAT COULD POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE IN MY VEHICLE. WHEN CALLING TOYOTA THEY TELL ME THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION IS TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS WITHOUT A CAR I CAN NOT WORK AND PROVIDE FOR MY FAMILY. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY SAY THERE'S NO A REMEDY AND JUST STAND BYE WITHOUT A CAR UNTIL WE MAKE A DECISION. I DON'T FEEL LIKE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH POTENTIAL FOR DEATH OR BECOMING UNEMPLOYED AND LOSING MY WAY OF LIFE IS A VERY FAIR QUESTION TO POSE TO THEIR CUSTOMERS.
