The contact owns a 2009 Toyota Yaris. While driving approximately 25 mph, the driver noticed smoke around the front driver side door window. The contact coasted the vehicle to the side of the road and turned off the engine. A certified independent mechanic came out to inspect the vehicle and noticed that the circuit board was smoking. The mechanic disconnected the circuit board to prevent the vehicle from catching on fire. The vehicle was driven to the contact's residence. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 15V689000 (visibility). The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 70,185.

Takata recall electrical

Takata recall my Toyota Yaris has had recalls on: 1) the front passenger airbag inflator 2) power window master switch 3) driver side seat track assembly & passenger seat track assembly 4) safety recall E0M - remedy notice various models - spiral cable basically, the driver's airbag is damaged and can possibly fail to deploy. The passenger airbag is a bomb, the windows can cause smoke and fire in my car and both driver and passenger seats can snap off the railing causing people in the vehicle to slide forward or backwards (with no airbag protection) in the case of an accident. This vehicle is a death trap - and when I called to schedule the recalls at my local Toyota dealership I was told it will take over 30 days for the parts to arrive. When I asked what I am supposed to do about driving my family around in my vehicle the representative said that Toyota only "recommends" you don't drive passengers. Is this seriously how Toyota will deal with their customers? my car should be completely recalled with these sort of issues. These are not minor issues.
