Let us the fix for the air bag cable . Good luck .

MoneyT8 · 10-18-2014, 10:34 PM

Still waiting on the letter for the spiral cable. Has anyone gotten hurt or god-forbid killed because of this? Do we we even need the letter from Toyota to go in and get this fixed because I've heard the dealership has it on their computer already so there is no need for the recall letter? Anyways Toyota needs to hurry up.

***Update just got my recall done for the spiral cable and now the airbag light is gone =). I'm considering getting an alignment done.

Got my letter yesterday for the spiral cable too.

Hershey · 11-04-2014, 11:35 AM

What is removed to get to the cable ? Big or small task ?

The Limo 2 · 11-04-2014, 03:58 PM

The letter says the cable is in the steering column assembly and will take approximately one hour to fix.

I got the letter!
And Toyota wanted me to pay for the diagnostic and spiral cable repair 2 months back, saying i would be refunded. But, I bet I would only get refunded for the spiral cable, not the diagnostic (which I had already done myself).

Gotta love the hand-me-down recall culture we have here in Canada.

Just had the spiral cable replaced and the seat rail recall done. 100% free.

Still Learning · 11-21-2014, 10:46 AM

I had both the spiral cable and rails done last Saturday. I had my car back within 2 hours.

*Astroman* · 11-22-2014, 01:22 AM

I had mine done a couple weeks back. Went in for the seat rail and they fixed the clockspring. Finally got to drive my car without the airbag light on for the first time in over 5 years.

Anyone got a Toyota Economic Loss Settlement Administrator settlement? My first thought was it's a scam but after further review it doesn't look like it. Thanks.

First, I apologize if this has already been discussed.

I received a letter from Toyota saying I need to replace some sensors in the front passenger seat that determine if the airbag deploys or not. I guess this problem could also cause the front passenger airbag to turn off. I have a 2012 Yaris L. Anyone else get this letter?

The only one I am aware of for the 2012 is T-SB-0092-12:

Some 2012 model year Yaris hatchback vehicles may exhibit a condition where the passenger
“AIRBAG OFF” light may illuminate intermittently while driving and the passenger seat is unoccupied.
This condition will not affect airbag operation. An updated Occupant Classification System Electronic
Control Unit (OCS ECU) has been made available to address this condition. This updated OCS ECU
logic will now illuminate the “AIRBAG OFF” light all the time when the vehicle is operated and
the passenger seat is unoccupied or when the OCS ECU determines that the occupant does not
meet the adult classification criteria.

Thank you. The letter I received doesn't mention any TSB number, as far as I can tell. It says....."Due to the current collision detection thresholds, the system may interpret certain occupant seating usages or road conditions as a rear collision and illuminate the Airbag Warning Light and "AIR BAG OFF" indicator, disabling the front passenger airbag."

It says this pertains to 2012-2013 Yaris vehicles and others (Avalon, etc.). Regardless, I'll call my dealer soon to get it taken care of.

Thanks!
