RAN SCAN ON SRS WITH INNOVA 3150 AND RECEIVED ERROR CODE B0101 "OPEN IN D SQUIB CIRCUIT". AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 2005 AND 2006 MODELS.

SRS LIGHT IS ON, BASED ON SERVICE BULLETIN NO.: TC-14-001 COMPONENT(S): AIR BAGS , ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TOOK VEHICLE TO TOYOTA AND THEY STATE THIS IS NOT THE ISSUE AND I HAVE TO PAY $1000 TO HAVE CONTROL BOARD REPLACED. I DO NOT TRUST THAT THE CONTROL BOARD IS THE ISSUE AND BELIEVE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IS WANTING TO HAVE ME PAY FOR HIGH COST PART AND THE ISSUE CAN BE RESOLVED THROUGH SERVICE BULLETIN. HOW CAN I TRUST TOYOTA THAT THE SERVICE BULLETIN IS NOT THE PROBLEM AND THE CONTROL BOARD IS... CAN AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP BE USED TO DETERMINE ISSUE.

THE DOOR CHECK WAS REPLACED BY TOYOTA FOR PREVIOUS OWNER.THE DOOR WELDS ARE BROKE AND POPS AND THE DOOR CHECK HAS BROKEN PLASTIC.TOYOTA REPLACED THE SPARK PLUGS, BUT JUST THE FRONT. FRONT WERE DENSO AND BACK WERE NGK. LOCAL DEALER SAYS THEY DO NOT MIX PLUGS. LOCAL DEALER SAYS THEY WILL INSPECT THE SHIFTER AND LEAVE IT WHEN THE RECALL SAYS THEY WILL REPLACE IT. ON THE DASH , IT WAS ALSO FIXED BY THE DEALER BECAUSE IT MELTED. I WAS TOLD BY LOCAL DEALER I HAD UNTIL 2024 TO GET IT FIXED WHEN ACTUALLY IT GOES OUT IN 2017. I AM BEING MISLED ON PURPOSE SO THEY DO NOT HAVE TO FIX THEIR PROBLEMS. NO ONE IS WATCHING THEM AND LETTING THEM DO WHAT EVER THEY WANT NO MATTER YOU SPEND OVER $40,000 PLUS FOR THEIR TRASH THEY WILL NOT STAND BEHIND. IF THEIR IS A FACTORY DEFECT IT SHOULD BE AN AUTOMATIC RECALL BECAUSE THEY CANNOT BE TRUSTED TO DO THE RIGHT THING. LETS WAKE UP AND HELP THE PEOPLE BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF. IT HAPPENED WHEN TOYOTA PUT A NEW DOOR CHECK IN IT.THEY HAVE THE RECORDS AND IT WAS ON MY CARFAX. I BOUGHT IT LIKE IT IS BEING TOLD THE DEALER WOULD HONOR THEIR LETTER. THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT AND I AM STILL WAITING ON THE DASH. THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY AND TIME WILL RUN OUT BEFORE THEY GET TO MINE JUST LIKE THE DOOR. IT SWINGS WIDE OPEN NOTHING TO STOP IT. THE SHIFTER I WILL JUST LIVE WITH IT BECAUSE IF THEY CAN'T BE TRUSTED TO CHANGE ALL YOUR PLUGS ,CAN YOU TRUST THEM TO DO ANY WORK TO YOUR TOYOTA VEHICLES.DO NOT BUY TOYOTAS BECAUSE THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU, JUST SELLING THEIR CHEAP CARS!
