AIR BAGS
THE AIR BAG ALERT BAG COMES ON SOLID. THERE HAS BEEN A NATIONAL RECALL ON THIS SINCE APRIL. I HAVE CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY HAVE STATED THAT THE COMPANY (TOYOTA) HAS NOT DECIDED WHAT PARTS NEED TO BE REPLACED. SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL (SINCE APRIL) I FEEL THAT THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND MY FAMILY ARE IN JEOPARDY. AS THE NATL.HWY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMIN, I FEEL YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO ENFORCE THE RECALL AND MAKE TOYOTA TAKE CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. *TR

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON MY MANUAL-TRANSMISSION 2007 TOYOTA YARIS WILL INTERMITTENTLY COME ON FOR A PERIOD OF SEVERAL HOURS UP TO SEVERAL DAYS BEFORE SHUTTING OFF. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW. SOMETIMES WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON, THE CAR ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN. IT ALSO MAY STALL, OR THE ENGINE WILL REV REALLY HIGH WITHOUT THE GAS PEDAL BEING TOUCHED. I BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC THAT REPLACED ONE OF THE SENSORS, HOWEVER THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
AS I WAS DRIVING THIS PAST WINTER THE ABS REQUIRED MAINTENANCE AND PARKING BRAKE CAME ILLUMINATED AT THE SAME TIME. I THOUGHT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A FROZEN CONNECTOR SINCE THE WINTER HAS BEEN VERY COLD AND BAD THIS YEAR. THE SPEED SENSOR PIG TAIL AND THE REAR WHEEL BEARING WENT OUT. THIS PART WAS CORODED AND FULL OF DIRT AND GRIME. EVEN THE WIRES WERE DISENGRATED. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER YARIS OWNERS TO THAT I HAVE READ ON HERE. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. APROXIMATE COST OF FIXING THIS PROBLEM IS 600.00. *TR
