Police case : 2500011609 The failure of the airbags in my Toyota Camry placed both the driver and the minor passenger at significant risk of injury. While the airbags in the Ford vehicle deployed and presumably helped protect its occupants, my passenger was left unprotected, leading to sustained injuries that require ongoing medical treatment. This raises serious concerns about the reliability of Toyota’s airbag system. Collision between Toyota Camry 2011 with a 2005 Black Ford Freestyle. The Ford vehicle's airbags deployed, but the airbags in my Toyota Camry did not deploy, despite the severity of the crash. The airbag system in my Toyota Camry, specifically the airbag sensors and deployment mechanism, failed to activate during the crash. This failure prevented the airbags from deploying, which is critical given the impact severity. The vehicle was totaled due to extensive damage, and the airbag system in my Toyota Camry has not been inspected by the manufacturer yet. However, it should be made available for inspection by Toyota or a qualified independent service center upon request. The failure of the airbags to deploy exposed the driver and the minor passenger to increased risk of injury. The airbags are an essential safety feature meant to reduce injury during moderate to severe collisions, and their failure likely contributed to the severity of the injuries sustained by the passenger. The passenger, a minor, is now attending regular doctor appointments for treatment, indicating the serious nature of the injuries.

Had a car accident and none of air bags deployed. Car rolled over several times and hit a ditch and property sign

I was involved in a traffic accident on Route 10 in California on February 27 and I hit the back of a large truck. My driving speed was 73mph and the impact speed was 33mph. The air bag of the vehicle deployed at the time, causing my right eyeball to rupture and permanently blind me. There was no damage to my face except for the right eye. My body didn't suffer any harm either. I looked up a lot of information and combined the results of the hospital diagnosis. I suspect a defect in the air bag caused my injury. And I found on the news that there have been many similar cases of airbags used by Toyota, which were accidental injuries caused by defective airbags. I would like your help to find out as soon as possible if my right eye is damaged due to a defective air bag from Toyota. I am driving a 2011 toyota, camry. Looking forward to your reply.

MY DAUGHTER AND A FRIEND WAS IN AN ACCIDENT IN OUR 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY SE AND NEITHER OF THE FRONT AIR BAGS CAME OUT. A GIRL SLAMMED ON BRAKES IN FRONT OF THEM (IN THE RAIN) AND SHE RAN INTO THE BACK OF THE GIRL AT A SPEED OF AT LEAST 45 TO 50 MPH AND AND AIR BAGS DID NOT COME OUT AND HER AND HER FRIEND COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A VERY BAD HEAD-ON COLLISION AND BOTH LEG AND STEERING WHEEL AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. MY CAR WAS HEADED SOUTHBOUND ON THE STREET AND THE SUV IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED SUDDENLY BECAUSE A SCHOOL BUS CUT HIM OFF. I WAS WEARING A SEAT-BELT. THE FORCE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYING WAS SO GREAT THAT IT KNOCKED ME UNCONSCIOUS. THE AIRBAG THAT DEPLOYED BY MY LEGS HAS LEFT ME WITH SOME OF THE WORST BRUISING I HAVE EVER SEEN AND SUBSTANTIAL PAIN. I HAVE ATTACHED IMAGES OF BOTH THE DEPLOYED AIRBAGS AND MY SUBSEQUENT INJURIES. THE ER DOCTORS, ORTHOPEDIC DOCTOR, NEUROLOGIST AND EMTS THOUGHT THAT THESE INJURIES WERE UNUSUAL AND NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE NORMAL RESULT OF AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

IT HAD ONLY BEEN ABOUT 1 OR 2 MONTHS SINCE I HAD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND ONE DAY WHEN I GOT IN THE CAR THE COVER OF THE SIDE DRIVER AIR BAG WAS HANGING. I CALLED TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID TO TAKE IT BACK. THEY BASICALLY GLUED IT BACK. THIS HAPPENED ANOTHER 2 TIMES BUT THEY SAID IT WASN'T A DEFECT. THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO THE TEXAS HEAT. THE COVER IS SUPER GLUED ON BUT WHEN I GO THRU A ROUGH ROAD THE AIR BAG LIGHT TURNS ON AND OFF. FOR THE LAST FEW MONTHS THE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS STAYED ON PERMANENTLY.

I AM WRITING BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT TOYOTA MAY HAVE UNDERREPORTED A PROBLEM WITH THE VOLUNTARY RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 13V014000. I OWN A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. HOWEVER, MY VIN WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL, OR NEITHER I NOR MY DEALER RECEIVED NOTICE. AS YOU KNOW, THIS RECALL IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAILURE OF THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG TO INFLATE IN AN ACCIDENT. ON FEBRUARY 17, 2015, MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER WERE T-BONED, WITH THE STRIKING CAR HITTING THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND B-PILLAR AREA FLUSH AT ABOUT 40 MPH. ALTHOUGH THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR CURTAIN DEPLOYED, THE RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG DID NOT. MY DAUGHTER RECEIVED SOME INJURIES FROM THE FAILURE OF THIS AIRBAG TO INFLATE AND PROTECT HER. TOYOTA DID VISIT THE VEHICLE AFTER THE COLLISION AND DOWNLOADED THE DATA FROM THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE, AND IT SHOWED A FAILURE OF THAT AIRBAG. I TRIED TO ATTACH A COPY OF THE DOWNLOADED DATA FOR YOUR REVIEW, BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO ATTACH IT. PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW TO SEND YOU THIS PDF FILE. I AM CONCERNED THAT MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THAT PERHAPS TOYOTA HAS UNDERREPORTED THE EXTENT OF THE PROBLEM, PUTTING MORE UNSUSPECTING TOYOTA CUSTOMERS AT RISK. IF YOU NEED ANY FURTHER INFORMATION FROM ME, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. MY CELL PHONE NUMBER IS [XXX]. I WOULD LIKE TO BE KEPT IN THE INFORMATION LOOP REGARDING ANY INVESTIGATION OF TOYOTA THAT RESULTS FROM MY COMPLAINT.
