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.

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" CASE # 1607202446 I HAVE BEEN GIVEN A LOANER VEHICLE SINCE SEPTEMBER OR OCTOBER OF LAST YEAR THROUGH WOLFCHASE TOYOTA IN GERMANTOWN TN. EVEN THOUGH I LIVE IN SOUTHAVEN, MS. IT WILL SOON BE A YEAR THAT MY PERSONAL VEHICLE WILL BE SITTING WITH NO USAGE. THE DAMAGES TO MY VEHICLE'S GAS TANK, FUEL PUMP, BATTERY, PAINT, TIRES, FLUIDS, RUST, OIL, BRAKES, ROTORS, PLUGS, AND MAYBE MORE COULD OCCUR WHILE SITTING SO LONG. THERE ARE NO OTHER SOLUTION BEING GIVEN OTHER THAN A LOANER VEHICLE THAT HAS TO BE RENEWED EVERY 30 DAYS, ABOUT 45 MILES AWAY FROM MY HOME. HOWEVER, MY OTHER CONCERN IS THAT ONCE MY PERSONAL VEHICLE IS FIXED THE REPERCUSSIONS FROM IT SITTING FOR SO LONG WILL CAUSE FOR ME TO HAVE EVEN MORE SAFETY PROBLEMS THAT WILL NOT BE WARRANTIED. ONE SOLUTION THAT COULD BE OFFERED WOULD BE TO MAYBE FIRST PROVIDE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE PARTS THAT ARE BEING AFFECTED, BECAUSE OF THE DAMAGES CAUSED WHILE THE VEHICLES ARE SITTING. ANOTHER SOLUTION COULD BE TO PROVIDE A CERTIFIED INSPECTION ON EACH VEHICLE BEFORE BEING RELEASED BACK TO THE CUSTOMER. OR THE LAST SUGGESTION IS TO MAYBE PROVIDE THE CUSTOMER WITH A SET AMOUNT TO GO TOWARDS A NEW VEHICLE SO THEY WON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE STRESS OF THE LOANER. I FEAR THAT ONE SAFETY ISSUE WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF ONLY TO BE REPLACED BY MANY MORE. MY FAMILY IS VERY VALUABLE TO ME, AND I FINANCIALLY CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY A NEW VEHICLE OR TO EVEN REPLACE ALL THE PARTS THAT CAN BE DAMAGED TO MY VEHICLE FOR SITTING FOR SUCH A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE.
