“2011 Toyota Fj Cruiser. Customer would like the car to be included in the recall regarding premature air bag deployment. Toyota claimed there were signs of water in the engine intake air system and there was no manufacturing or design defect with the air bags. The consumer stated his son did drive through a field with water and mud. However, it was after the air bags inadvertently deployed, so the presence of water had nothing to do with the deployment.”
