On june10th. I had a majoir accident in which both my wife & myself suffered fractured sternums & fractured ribs. What happened was that I pulled into a lot in princeton, N.J. & after stopping to set my gps, I just tapped the accelerator & the car shot forward, as if shot out of a cannon. While stopped I put the car in reverse & the car shot backwards in the same manner, thereby striking a wall. Now I went forward like a rocket, with no time to hit the brake, thereby going headfirst into a parked construction truck.

Air bag light is on all the time and seat bell is flashing and front rotors excessive rust and only about 2 1/2 inches in middle the rotors.

I noticed that the 'pass air bag off' light was on even though a passenger was sitting in the front passenger seat. I took it to the Toyota dealership that diagnosed it. They said the sensor in the passenger seat belt buckle had gone bad and needed replacing. What bothers me is the fact that the airbag light on the instrument panel didn't come on to indicate that something was wrong. I am not sure how long I have driven with this malfunction since the light that indicates the air bag being on or off is off to the side and in yellow rather than red to show that something is wrong. I had to pay for the diagnosis and repair. This should have been covered by an extended warranty by the manufacturer. The car only had 67K miles, being 7 years old.

The airbag light remains on. I have been informed that this means that in case of a vehicle crash my airbags will not deploy. My VIN is not part of the recall, yet I am experiencing the same problem as other rav 4 owners that have VIN numbers within the recall. The Toyota dealership wants to charge me $88 per half hour to diagnose the problem. That's not fair to me.

According to NHTSA campaingn number, my 2012 Rav4 should have been recalled in 2013. I was not notified then or never. I am afraid to drive my vehicle and can't seem to get any answers about my airbag. All I want to know is what kind of airbag I have and if it's made by takada, I want it changed.

I was travelling northbound on I-85 in the city of atlanta at around 55 miles per hour. A car from the hov lane abruptly changed lanes at high speed and hit me on the drivers side. This was a big impact and due to this my car swerved to the right lane and hit another moving truck on its drivers side. The car has been totaled by my insurance company. My concern is that, due to the nature of the accident and the impact the air bags of the car should have deployed and they didn't. this I think is a lapse in the safety of the car and is a matter of life and death. The accident took place on 10/17/2015 around 7:30 am on I-85N in the city of atlanta. I have attached the police report for reference. Please investigate the same.

Driving on road, headed towards highway. Light was green and I continued to forward to get onto highway. A driver a couple cars ahead stopped suddenly before entering onramp to highway and I slammed into the back end of the truck in front of me. The truck was jacked up some and I hit a steel bumper, with a trailer hitch. My car was not drivable, front right side received most of the damage, but my car was determined totaled as it had more than $14,000 damage. The engine wasn't damaged, the windshield fluid was still in the container, the battery wasn't damaged, yet the car was totaled. The driver of the other car took off after I hit him. In the question above, I checked the affected parts as the airbags, because that's where my concern is. The airbags didn't deploy and I received whiplash with a torn ligament in my neck. I have additional injuries on my knee, as my knee slammed into something, steering wheel, bottom of dashboard or something. All are considered minor injuries, as I walked away. But I'm still currently in pain, with regular headaches. Don't understand why there could be so much damage on my car to total it and yet the airbags didn't inflate. The collision shop was unsure as well.

I had a seizure while driving down a road, stopped by a palm tree. It hit the car on the right front. Unfortunately, the air bag did not deploy, perhaps for going to slow or not. I will say that the palm tree stopped the car. I was moving forward, and the vehicle was stopped by the tree. I fractured my shoulder. I dislocated my shoulder, and bruised several ribs. I was transported to the hospital in an ambulance. I was in a hospital for five days, surgery took place there. I was unable to work for two and a half months.

While attempting to roll the vehicle forward to clear a doorway, the vehicle jumped forward about 6 feet. At that time I pulled my foot off the gas and pushed the brake pedal to the floor. The vehicle stopped momentarily, then began to accelerate picking up speed rapidly as evidenced by the revving of the engine. I continued to pump the brake since holding it to the floor was doing nothing. By this time I had gone through a chain link fence, through a ditch over a curb and continued to pick up speed to pass through a concrete block wall and into the back of a parked R.,the vehicle impaling itself on the steel pipes of a motorcycle carrier attached to the back of the R.V. the vehicle could not move any further but the engine was still revving. Needless to say the Rav4 was totaled and amazingly I suffered only minor bumps and bruises. At no time did any of the air bags deploy.
