WAS HIT FROM BEHIND BY A PICKUP TRUCK GOING 40MPH WHILE I WAS STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION. I WAS 5 MONTHS PREGNANT AT THE TIME. I WAS PROPELLED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHERE MY RIGHT SIDE PASSENGER SIDE WAS HIT BY A SEDAN. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. CONTACTED TOYOTA WHO REVIEWED MY ACCIDENT PHOTOS, AND THEY CLAIM THE FRAME WAS NOT DAMAGED, SO THE AIRBAGS WOULDN'T HAVE DEPLOYED, BUT I DON'T BUY IT. THE BACK END, GLASS, BUMPER, ETC, WAS DESTROYED AND MY PASSENGER DOOR WAS COMPLETELY CAVED IN. THE CAR WAS TOTALED. I DON'T SEE ANY REASON THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT HAVE DEPLOYED, ESPECIALLY SINCE I WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED AND WAS HIT VERY HARD. I SUFFERED MAJOR BRUISING TO MY ARMS AND LEGS, NECK AND BACK PAIN, ALL REQUIRING SEVERAL DAYS OFF WORK. *TR

IN REYNOSA, MEXICO I HAD A MAJOR CRASH, ALL THE FRONT WAS DESTROYED AND THE AIRBAG DIDN'T OPEN. I HAD MY SAFETY BELT BUT BECAUSE OF THE BIG IMPACT I GOT HIT ON MY CHEST AND KNEES WITH THE BOARD AND THE CAR WHEEL, A SPRAIN IN MY NECK AND HAD TO USE A COLLAR FOR SEVERAL DAYS. THE CAR DEALER SAYS IT IS NOT HIS RESPONSIBILITY AND TOYOTA MEXICO IS NOT TAKING CARE OF THIS.....UPDATED 10/28/14 *BF *TR

IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE SPRINGS USED FOR THE SEAT RAILS ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT AND THE SEAT RAILS OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OF THREE-DOOR MODELS MAY BREAK. CONSEQUENCES: IF THE SPRING BREAKS, THE SEAT MAY NOT LOCK IN POSITION. IN THE EVENT OF A VEHICLE CRASH, THE SEAT COULD MOVE INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE SEAT OCCUPANT. REMEDY: TOYOTA WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE SEAT RAIL, AND REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE, IF NECESSARY, FREE OF CHARGE. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED A NOTIFICATION SCHED TOYOTA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006-2008 RAV4, 2006-2010 YARIS, 2008-2010 HIGHLANDER, AND 2009-2010 TACOMA, COROLLA, COROLLA MATRIX AND GENERAL MOTORS PONTIAC VIBE VEHICLES. IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY CONTAINS ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG MODULE HOUSED IN A SPIRAL CABLE ASSEMBLY, WHICH INCLUDES A FLEXIBLE FLAT CABLE (FFC). DUE TO THE SHAPE AND LOCATION OF THE FFC'S RETAINER, THE FFC COULD BECOME DAMAGED WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED. CONSEQUENCES: IF THE FFC IS DAMAGED, CONNECTIVITY TO THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG MODULE COULD BE LOST AND THE AIR BAG DEACTIVATED. THE FAILURE OF THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG TO DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH THAT TYPICALLY NECESSITATES DEPLOYMENT INCREASES THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE DRIVER. REMEDY: TOYOTA WILL NOTIFY THE TOYOTA VEHICLE OWNERS, AND GENERAL MOTORS WILL NOTIFY THE PONTIAC VIBE OWNERS. TOYOTA SENT OWNERS AN INTERIM NOTIFICATION LETTER IN MAY 2014 TO ADVISE OWNERS OF THE RECALL. TOYOTA WILL MAIL OWNERS A SECOND LETTER WHEN REMEDY PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. GENERAL MOTORS HAS NOT YET PROVIDED A NOTIFICATION SCHEDULE FOR THE PONTIAC VIBE OWNERS. WHEN THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE SPIRAL CABLE ASSEMBLY, FREE OF CHARGE. *TR
