About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
The airbag light keep coming on when I either go through a car wash or if some taps my front-end while parking. Dealer refuses to verify if they have had any similar complaints.

Brought the vehicle in to my local Toyota dealer who notified me that they "found open circuit in seat squibb not serviceable part" $3154.28 to replace the seat. The passenger side airbags will not deploy in an accident.

The contact owns a 2006 Toyota Camry. While driving 35 mph a vehicle in front of her proceeded through a stop sign causing the driver to crash and rear end another vehicle. Upon impact the driver side air bag did not deploy causing the driver to sustain injuries to her chest, left leg and broken fingers on her left hand. The contact did not notice any failures with the air bag system prior to the failure. A police report was filed. The vehicle was inspected by an insurance adjuster who was unable to determine why the air bags did not deploy and confirmed that the vehicle was destroyed. The contact is in the process of notifying the manufacturer. The failure mileage was 52,000.

2006 Camry....while inching my car forward in my driveway to position the car to back it up, I was applying the brake and moving at a speed of no more than 2-3 mph. The car started to accelerate which kept increasing. I was taken by surprise, didn't know what was happening. I looked down at the accelerator to make sure it wasn't me. My foot was on the brake. Before I knew it, I hit head on the very large tree at the end of my driveway. I was approximately 4 ft from the tree when the engine started revving. I had my seat belt on, which saved me from smacking my face on the steering wheel. My head jerked forward and I had a tremendous headache afterwards with pain in my neck. The air bag did not deploy. I put the car in park and my husband reached in the window and turned the engine off. When I started it up again, there was no problem and I carefully moved it away from the tree. The force with which I hit the tree pushed in my front end and also did some damage under the hood since the power steering fluid was leaking. I am currently waiting for the insurance adjustor to check this out. He did say that if he doesn't experience the same problem, he doesn't know what can be done by Toyota. Needless to say, I am anxious for the results and will not feel safe driving my car.

Front-end of my 2002 Camry was destroyed in a front-end collision. Both airbags failed to deploy.

The airbags on my Toyota-Camry- le 2006 did not deploy during an accident. I have photos of the vehicle from the incident site if required. My wife was injured. I believe if the air bag would have deployed, the injury may have been prevented.
