2005 Toyota Sienna Air Bags & Restraints Problems

The dashboard has so many cracks literally everywhere. All the way from the driver side to the passenger side. When the temperature changes hot to cold or cold to hot. There’s nothing but cracking sounds.

The airbag light is on. The seatbelt on the passenger side gets stuck.

Air bag warning light illuminated red on dashboard.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER FRONT SEAT BELTS DO NOT RETRACT PROPERLY. IT GIVES DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER A SENSE THAT THE SEATBELTS WORK ONLY TO FIND THE SEATBELT IS LOOSE AT THE WAIST. A KNOWN PROBLEM BY TOYOTA IN THE 2016 "CAMPAIGN" WHEREBY THEY INSTALLED DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SEATBELTS. HERE IT IS 2020 AND THE EXACT SAME ISSUE IS HAPPENING.

THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEATBELT FREQUENTLY BINDS UP IN THE TOP GUIDE AREA. THE SEATBELT IS NOT USABLE.

THE FRONT SEAT BELTS GETS TANGLED. IT TAKES A LOT OF TIME AND EFFORT TO GET IT UNTANGLED. MOST RECENTLY I WAS UNABLE TO GET IT UNTANGLED SO I HAD TO TAKE IT TO MY GARAGE TO GET IT UNTANGLED. VERY SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM IF IT GET TANGLED WHILE I AM OUT RUNNING ERRANDS AND CANNOT GET IT UNTANGLED SO I CAN DRIVE HOME. HAZARDOUS AND SHOULD BE RECALLED!

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, THE FRONT PASSENGER SAFETY BELT HAS GOTTEN BOUND UP AND STUCK IN THE GUIDE ON THE A PILLAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE PUTTING ON THE BELT, AS WELL AS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I'M CONCERNED THAT IF THIS HAPPENS DURING A COLLISION THE FRONT PASSENGER WILL NOT BE PROPERLY RESTRAINED AND COULD BE INJURED. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FREE THE BELT WITH TOOLS BEFORE, BUT AM NO LONGER ABLE TO DO SO.

FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT GETS JAMMED AND COMES OUT ALL THE WAY WONT GO BACK IN.

THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. WHEN OPEN AND CLOSING THE DOOR, THERE IS A VERY LOUD CLICKING. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS A CRACK IN THE DOOR NEAR THE TOP HING THAT IS CONNECTED TO THE DOOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 TOYOTA SIENNA. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS STRUCK ALONGSIDE THE DRIVER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AWAY FROM THE SCENE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 216,000.

THE LIGHT AIRBAGS IS ON DON'T GO OUT SAME TIME WORKS REGULARLY

THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BELT GETS TWISTED WITH RETRACTION & GETS STUCK IN THE EXTENDED POSITION CAUSING A SAFETY CONCERN

IT WAS IN THE ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. IT ALWAYS HAS THE LIGHT ON

SEAT BELT WILL NOT RETRACT LIKE IT SHOULD. THIS HAPPENS TOO OFTEN. NOT JUST IN MY CAR.

THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKED ON OR NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. I FEEL THIS COULD BE A PROBLEM FOR THE PASSENGER IF ACTIVATED. TOYOTA KNEW OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAD A RECALL WHICH ENDED MY 2017. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL. A CHECK WITH TOYOTA AND THEY STATE NOTHING CAN BE DONE.

I OWN A 2005 TOYOTA SIENNA VAN AND HAVE BEEN BRAGGING ON IT TO EVERYONE EXCEPT FOR ONE BIG PROBLEM THAT HAS HAUNTED ME SINCE 2016. THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT HAS FAULTY SEAT BELTS THAT WERE INSTALLED IN THIS VAN AND THEY WERE RECALLED. IT TOOK FOREVER TO CONVINCE ADAMS OF LEE'S SUMMIT TO REPLACE THEM BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T DO IT EVERY TIME. MY HUSBAND [XXX] FOUGHT WITH [XXX] OF LEE'S SUMMIT DEALERSHIP ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TRYING TO GET THE ORIGINAL RECALL PERFORMED BECAUSE THE SEATBELTS WOULD NOT DO IT EVERY TIME. IN THE MEAN TIME I WAS FORCED TO CARRY A SMALL SCREWDRIVER A FORCED TO SIT IN PARKING LOTS IN DANGER AS I FOUGHT TO TRY AND UNTANGLE THE CROSSOVER OF THE SEATBELT. THAN AFTER MANY TRIPS THEY FINALLY REPLACED THE SEATBELTS. WITHIN A YEAR THE POST HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT BROKE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND IT BROKE IN THE UP TALLEST POSITION WEAR MY 6' 2' HUSBAND NEEDS IT. I AM A 5'5' WOMEN WITH DISABILITIES AND HAVING TO CONSTANTLY FIGHT WITH THESE SEATBELTS TO GO TO MY DOCTORS APPOINTMENTS IS HORRIBLE. SO NOW IT SITS ACROSS MY THROAT, VERY PAINFUL AND UNSAFE. HE HAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER TWO TIMES AND THEY REFUSE TO HONOR THEIR WORK OR PART. FIRST TIME ON 05/02/2017 WHICH WAS LESS THAN A YEAR AFTER IT WAS REPLACED, NOTED AS BODY/INTERIOR REPAIR ORDER. THEY REFUSED TO REPAIR IT. SECOND TIME WE BROUGHT IT UP AGAIN AT AN OIL CHANGE ON 7/3/2018 THEY ALSO REFUSED. THEY WERE PAID TO INSTALL IT UNDER WARRANTY IT SHOULD COME WITH SOME TYPE OF A WARRANTY WITH THIS INSTALLATION. SEATBELTS ARE DESIGNED TO BE WORN ACROSS OUR LEGS AND ACROSS OUR SHOULDER, NOT OUR NECK. I FEEL SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE FOR MY SAFETY. YOU ATTENTION TO THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATE. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
