AIR BAGS
A CAR CROSSED MY LANE FROM A PARKING LOT CAUSING ME TO "T-BONE" THE OTHER VEHICLE AT 40MPH. THE AIRBAG INFLATED WITH A HUGE FORCE AND NOISE, HITTING ME IN THE FACE, CHEST AND RIGHT ARM--KNOCKED ME OUT AND LEFT ME DAZED FOR A WHILE AFTER. THERE WAS WHAT I THOUGHT WAS WHITE SMOKE THAT FILLED UP THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER AREA. WHEN I GOT MY BELONGINGS OUT OF MY VEHICLE SEVERAL DAYS LATER, I NOTICED LITTLE BITS OF WHAT LOOKED LIKE SOME FLECKS OF DARK METAL OR PLASTIC ON THE FLOORBOARD AND PASSENGER SEAT. I SUSTAINED CONTUSIONS AND MULTIPLE ABRASIONS TO MY CHEST AND RIGHT ARM, TWO DISLOCATED RIBS, A TORN ROTATOR CUFF AND THREE BULGING CERVICAL DISKS. I HAD CONTUSIONS AND ABRASIONS ON MY KNEES.

SEAT BELTS
THIS CAR WAS INVOLVED IN A THREE CAR COLLISION. A VAN TURNED LEFT SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT SIGNALING. THE CAR BEHIND THE VAN SLAMMED ON BRAKES. THE NEXT CAR HIT THE FIRST CAR IN THE BACK. THE THIRD CAR (MY CAR) HIT THE SECOND CAR IN THE BACK AND PUSHED HIM INTO THE FIRST CAR. MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AND I WAS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE FRONT AIR BAGS AND ALL FOUR OF THE SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. WE BOTH HAD ON OUR SEAT BELTS BUT THEY DID NOT LOCK. I, SEATING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITH MY SEAT BELT ON, WAS PROPELLED INTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THE WINDSHIELD HAS A CIRCULAR PATTERN OF CRACKS WHERE I HIT IT WITH MY FACE. LUCKILY, MY FACE WAS ONLY CUT AND SEVERELY BRUISED WITH NO BROKEN BONES. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE SEAT BELTS DID NOT LOCK. NEITHER THE SEAT BELT NOR THE AIR BAGS PREVENTED ME FROM HITTING THE WINDSHIELD. MY DAUGHTER'S SEAT BELT ALSO DID NOT LOCK BUT THE AIR BAG PREVENTED HER FROM BEING SEVERELY INJURED.

AIR BAGS
I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE AND ATTEMPTED TO SEEK THE SUGGESTED REMEDY. HOWEVER, I LIVE IN A BETHEL, ALASKA, WHICH IS OFF THE ROAD SYSTEM. VEHICLES ARE SHIPPED VIA AIRPLANE OR BARGE. ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS NO TOYOTA DEALER WHERE I LIVE. THE NEAREST ONE IS IN ANCHORAGE, ALASKA. AS A RESULT, I CANNOT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF TOYOTA'S OFFER TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG FREE OF CHARGE. I CALLED TOYOTA AND WAS TOLD IT WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO GET THE VEHICLE TO A DEALERSHIP IN ORDER TO REPLACE ITS AIRBAG. HOWEVER, SHIPPING MY VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP WOULD COST IN EXCESS OF $6000 (I OWE APPROXIMATELY $6000 ON THE VEHICLE). I ASKED IF THEY COULD SHIP ME THE PART SO SOMEONE COULD INSTALL IT HERE IN BETHEL. THEY SAID NO. I ASKED WHETHER I COULD DISCONNECT THE AIR BAG AND THEY SAID NO. I'M NOT SURE WHAT MY OPTIONS ARE; HOWEVER, I WOULD LIKE TO USE MY VEHICLE. CAN YOU OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE? UPDATED 10/9/15 *LN

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THIS HAPPENED ABOUT FOUR WEEKS APART WITH TWO DIFFERENT DRIVERS UNDER SIMILAR CONDITIONS. WE WERE SLOWING TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN TRAVELING 5-10 MPH AND WHEN WE APPLIED THE BRAKE, THE ENGINE REVED UP. WHEN IT HAPPENED TO ME THE THE CAR WOULDN'T STOP WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE SO I PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND THUS AVOIDED HITTING CAR AHEAD OF ME. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER. THEY HAD IT FOR A DAY AND HALF AND SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. THEY SAID I SHOULD REMOVE MY AFTER MARKET CAR MAT ( WHICH I HAVE) AND SUGGESTED THAT BOTH DRIVERS HAD APPLIED THE BRAKE AND ACCELORATOR AT THE SAME TIME. I THINK THIS IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY AS MY FOOT ISN'T WIDE ENOUGH TO DO BOTH UNLESS MY FOOT IS NEARLY OFF THE BRAKE. THE CAR MAT IN QUESTION HAS BEEN THE CAR FOR 6 PLUS YEARS AND IS A CUSTOM MADE ONE WHICH DOES NOT SLIP.

WE RECEIVED NOTICE FOR THE RECALL CONCERNING THE AIR BAG MODULE. THERE IS A "NATIONWIDE PART SHORTAGE" AND NO INFORMATION AS TO WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. IT COULD BE A WEEK OR MONTH THE DEALER TOLD ME. IN THE MEANTIME, MY DAUGHTER IS DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT COULD HAVE AN AIRBAG MALFUNCTION WHICH IS VERY CONCERNING TO ME. TOYOTA IS NOT FIXING THE DEFECT IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME SO I WANTED TO SUBMIT A COMPLAINT.
