2007 Toyota Yaris H/B Air bags Problems

“Takata recall I have been waiting to hear when I can bring in my car to be fixed. I got the notice in march, & check this site, plus the Toyota recall site for updates. I find it concerning that there has not been any notice still to get my car fixed for this problem. It has been seven months, and that is far too long for an issue with airbags to be unfixed. As far as I have seen, my vehicle's fix is not ready at this time.”

Today, I heard about the recall for air bag lights coming on in the yaris and I called the corporate Toyota headquarters and was told the recall does not cover my car because it did not have a 7 channel spiral cable, even though the repair to my car was for the spiral channel. …”

“I was driving to my mothers off of 700 e in salt lake city, during traffic. All 3 lanes stopped to let me pass and as I was turning left another car was driving in the bike lane at 45mph and with out touching their brakes slammed into my car throwing me a few feet. When I got out of the car I noticed my airbags didn't deploy. I remember there being a recall on them and larry h miller did no have the parts they needed so they told me they would not fix the problem. If that other drive was going 4-5 MPH faster my son and I could be dead do to no airbags. …”
