  Air bags › On-off switch assembly
  Covers: Toyota Tacoma 1998

  Reported issue: Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. The statement required in the owner's manual that "...the on-off switch should only ben used when a member of a passenger risk group identified in the request form in appendix b......is occupying the right front passenger seating position..." is mis-stated. This does not comply with the requirements of fmvss 208, "occupant crash protection."

  Possible consequence: If the air bag switch is "off," the seat occupant who is not a member of the passenger risk group would be subject to increased injury in the event of a vehicle crash.

  Remedy: Owners will be sent a corrected owner's manual.
