While driving on an expressway, without cause or warning, the srs airbag light began flashing. This had happened before at 38,000 miles in april of 2010 but was repaired by the dealer under extended warranty by removing and replacing the driver's seat and related air bag equipment. Now the car is out of warranty. Toyota needs to address this recurring problem with this model and year as it is a life threatening…

One morning, just a regular morning as always, i got into my car to drive to work, turned the car on, and the airbag light came on. It continued to flash the whole time i was driving. It has been flashing ever since, every time i drive this car. There was no accidents or any funny business, just out of the blue it started flashing. *tr

Our van has a srs airbag light that flashes for no reason at all. We have not been in an accident or had any incidents with this vehicle. It has under 25,000 miles on it. I believe this issue should be addressed, it appears many others have had similar issues. I am worried about the safety of myself, husband and 3 children. Toyota please take responsibility for the airbag sensor problems and help keep our families…

The airbag indicator light comes on and flashes. This is a known problem with toyota yet they choose not to issue a recall. Cost to fix it may exceed $1,500-$2,000. As this is a safety issue, a recall should be issued. Toyota service bulletin id: t-sb-1062-10. *tr

My airbag light came on. I took it to a toyota dealership for repair. They ordered the part, but then also informed me i needed a new water pump. I had the water pump repaired, then several weeks later the airbag part came in, but i didn't have the money to have it repaired. I still have the part. Now there is a recall on some toyota models, but i did not find a recall specific to my vehicle. I think my vehicle…

Our srs airbag light has come on and will not go off. We have had no accidents in this vehicle. We have gotten a cost estimate to fix this problem and it is well over $1000. We have read online that there are numerous accounts like this that have not been taken care of by toyota. What should the consumer have to pay for faulty wiring and be in danger of their srs systems not working properly? *tr

When starting the vehicle the air bag light begins blinking and will not go out. Based on online information i determined that the harness under the passenger seat may be faulty. I unplugged the harness and replugged it and the light went out. After a few hundred miles the blinking light returned. The vehicle is out of warranty and too expensive to fix. It appears that there are many people with the same issue.…

Drove van for approximately 20 minutes, parked it for an hour, when i got back in, my airbag light was indicating. Called dealer, told me to bring it in for a $150 fee just to read the light. Took it to my mechanic who told me the driver's side airbag was indicating and they had received a technical service bulletin about it and had several toyotas in with the same issue. *tr

All of a sudden, the air bags (srs) light came on and kept blinking. It stays blinking whenever the car is started. I checked the manual and am sure it is the srs light (not for the seat belt). The car was purchased in dec 2006, and i have not had air bags issue before. Really concerned about the safety of this car given the short period of time that i own it. *tr

There was no accident, the srs warning light came on, blinking, indicating an issue with the system. I took it to my dealer, was quoted a repair of $1600 for a new wire harness. I declined. I researched online for several days and found that this is a very common issue with this particular toyota make and model. Often people get the repair done and the light comes on within days. This is a safety issue and an issue…

My 2006 sienna was backed into at the passenger rear quarter panel by another vehicle. After about 2 or 3 days the air bag light came on. The body shop reset the airbags. About 2 months later the light came on again. Took back to body shop and they had the same b code from the accident and reset. After researching on the web it seems that the front airbag sensor under the seats is the problem and i have to reset…

The srs light came on as i was driving home from work. This vehicle has been in no accident and is well maintained. I took the car to the dealer and said that a tsb has been issued. However, my warranty period is over. I believe the car should still be covered. It appears to be a common issue based upon my google search. *tr

The airbag warning light keeps coming on intermittently even though this vehicle has never been in a crash. The dealership tells me the air bags will not deploy if the warning light is on, but that the connector below the seats is likely the culprit. Toyota should issue a recall and provide a solution to this safety issue. *tr

The airbag light went on and blinking. Took the car to the dealer and was told it cost $852 to fix the "wire harness" issue. I checked on line and realized there are many complaints on this same issue. It is a common safety issue and should be taken care by toyota. By the way, the same airbag light was on in 2008 and the airbag sensor was "recalibrated" by the dealership under new car warranty. I thought they…
