2010 Toyota Corolla Air Bags & Restraints Problems

The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Corolla. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V024000 (Air Bags); and requested to be removed from the recall distribution list. The local dealer was contacted, and the vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.

In 2018, my 2010 Toyota Corolla was taken to the dealership for the Takata Airbag Recall. After the repair the airbag warning light would intermittently display and go away only to come back later. The light was never consistent and was always randomly on so in turn could be off some times during the start up of the vehicle. In 2021, I took the vehicle to the dealership in which at the time the light was still intermittent. The dealership did not present any diagnostic and instead had reset the code during that time. The light would continue to still intermittently show afterwards. Currently the airbag warning light has been solid. Today 1/9/2026, the dealership has indicated they would not remediate this situation under workmanship warranty work despite previously resetting the code. The dealership insists the customer should pay for this remediation work. I have currently declined the work to seek external advise. The dealership work invoice states the code B1806 for the front passenger side squib circuit, this continued error puts passengers at risk in a car accident. Upon request of the previous dealership service history, the customer noted that there is a missing gap for service records on the dealership side. Most importantly the customer stated concern for the 2021 requested remediation was not documented. These appointments are still visible via the customer's service appointment reminder emails.

All airbags are no longer working due to a chip malfunction.

The vehicle went into a 360 turn and crashed into a telephone pole. The air bags failed to deploy. The driver sustained injuries to her knee and struck her head on the steering wheel. Medical attention was provided. A police report was filed. The vehicle was deemed a total loss by the insurance company. There were no reported fires. The vehicle was towed to an independent lot.

I was on a highway exit ramp (exit 5 off Northbound I-395) when my airbags deployed (driver and both sides). My car veered off the asphalt and then quickly I got control and continued out of traffic on a residential side road just off Route 7 westbound. My car then abruptly stoped. I managed to restart it a couple of times and run it just enough to get it off the road . I have attached photos. There does not appear to be any resulting damage to the body of the car. There were no outstanding recalls on the vehicle. I have reported the incident to my insurance (Geico).

On 11/10/2014 , we had our recall regarding our 2010 Corolla airbags corrected at our dealership with the replacement of the sub-assembly spiral cable. Our mileage at the time was 27382 miles. Just recently at 58,000 miles we have to pay $775 to replace that same spiral cable. This seems somewhat financially onerous since this is obviously not a wear and tear item , but one crucial to the vehicle's innate safety and one that does not appear to hold up well. I do not believe vehicle owners should be required to subsidize Toyota's defective equipment.

I WAS HIT BY A DRIVER GOING AT LEAST 20 MPH LEAVING MY VEHICLE TOTALED AND MYSELF INJURED. THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED ON IMPACT. I WAS IN A ROTARY GOING 10-15MPH AND THE OTHER VEHICLE (TRUCK) STRUCK FROM THE FRONT/SIDE AREA.

I GOT IN MY CAR AND BUCKLED MY SEATBELT. I STARTED DRIVING AWAY WHEN I REALIZED IT WASN'T STAYING BUCKLED.I TRIED TO RE-BUCKLE. A SPRING FLEW OUT OF THE BUCKLE. I COULD NOT GET THE SEATBELT TO BUCKLE AFTER THAT.I HAD TO GO TO WORK, SO I BUCKLED THE SEATBELT INTO THE PASSENGER COUPLING AND WAS ABLE TO GET TO WORK. THE CAR WAS ENTIRELY IN MOTION DURING THIS SEQUENCE.

TAKATA RECALL- THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT RECENTLY CAME ON IN MY CAR AND I AM BEING TOLD THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG INFLATOR AND/OR SENSOR CAUSING THE LIGHT TO STAY ON. ALSO THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN A YEAR THAT MY HORN HAS GONE OUT.

I WANT TO KNOW THE CAR HISTORY

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HORN BEGAN TO FAIL AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V340000 (AIR BAGS) BY TOYOTA OF PHARR (1625 W EXPY 83, PHARR, TX 78577, 1-800-347-2360). IN ADDITION, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED AFTER THE REPAIR. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE PART THAT WAS REPLACED CAUSED THE FAILURE OR IF THE REMEDY WAS THE CAUSE. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT A SERVICE APPOINTMENT NEEDED TO BE SCHEDULED FOR THE HORN FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP (BOB HOWARD TOYOTA IN EDMOND, OKLAHOMA) TO SCHEDULE THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT BUT WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART AND WILL CALL ME WHEN THE PART IS AVAILABLE. I ASKED THE EMPLOYEE IF WE COULD GET A RENTAL OR LOANER CAR IN THE MEANTIME SINCE WE USE THE PASSENGER DAILY FOR OUR KIDS. SHE INFORMED ME THEY DO NOT DO THAT AND THAT I NEED TO CALL TOYOTA DIRECTLY VIA THE NUMBER ON THE RECALL FORM. AFTER TALKING TO TOYOTA THEY INFORMED ME I SHOULD RECEIVE A CALL FROM TOYOTA RELATIONS AT THE DEALER (BOB HOWARD TOYOTA) WITHIN 48 HOURS. AFTER WAITING A WEEK AND RECEIVING NO CALL I DECIDED TO CALL TOYOTA DIRECTLY AGAIN. I WAS THEN INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP WAS SUPPOSE TO CALL ME BACK ON THE 27TH OF AUGUST (48 HOURS FROM ORIGINAL CALL WITH TOYOTA) BUT THEY DID NOT. WHEN TOYOTA TRIED TO REACH OUT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE PERSON IN CHARGE OF HANDLING THESE MATTERS WOULD NOT ANSWER THEIR CALLS. SO NOW I AM WAITING AN ADDITIONAL 24 HOURS TO GET A CALL BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP TO GET A LOANER CAR. DURING THIS WHOLE THING WE ARE STILL DRIVING A CAR WITH A AIRBAG THAT COULD POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE!

TAKATA RECALL THIS REMEDY HAS NOT YET BEEN PERFORMED AFTER CONTACTING THE TOYOTA CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE CENTER AND BURNSVILLE (MN) TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER DIRECTLY 3 TIMES. I CONTACTED THE CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER WHEN I FIRST RECEIVED THE LETTER ON 02/12, SPOKE TO PAM , AFTER SHE SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE CENTER, ADVISED ME THE PARTS WOULD BE ORDERED IN 2-3 DAYS. ON 02/21 I CALLED THEM AGAIN AND THE REP STATED THE PARTS WERE NEVER ORDERED, SO SHE PUT IN A REQUEST AND ADVISED ME TO WAIT A COUPLE OF DAYS. I CALLED ON 02/26 DIRECTLY TO BURNSVILLE TOYOTA, SARAH SAID THE PARTS WERE NEVER ORDERED AND SHE WOULD "PUSH IT THROUGH" DURING OUR PHONE CALL. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE DUE TO THE FACT I FEEL THAT I'VE BEEN FAILED THIS REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME. I'M WAITING TO GET MY OIL CHANGE DONE SAME DAY.
