2006 Toyota Sienna Air Bags

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,200.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 146,000. UPDATED 02/16/17*LJ UPDATED 7/10/18*JB

STARTED VEHICLE 3 DAYS AGO AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND IT KEEPS BLINKING OFF AND ON AND NEVER SHUTS OFF. VAN HAS 118,289 MILES. NEVER A PROBLEM BEFORE NOW.

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR ALL DAY. MADE A STOP AT A GROCERY STORE. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. *TR

AIR BAG WARNING CONTINUOUSLY FLASHES WHEN THE CAR IS ON. MECHANIC TRIED TO RESET IT BUT IT GOES RIGHT BACK TO FLASHING WHEN THE CAR IS RESTARTED. NO ACCIDENTS, THIS BEGAN AT 114,000 MILES. CONCERNED AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY ON IMPACT, OR WILL DEPLOY RANDOMLY BECAUSE IT IS FAULTY. THE VIN SHOWS THERE IS NO RECALL BUT ISN'T THIS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN HUNDREDS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM? *TR

CHECK AIRBAGS LIGHT COMES ON FOR NO REASON.

AROUND 150,000 MILES, MY AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT STARTED BLINKING ON MY DASH. IT HAS TURNED ITSELF OFF A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT THEN CAME BACK ON. THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A REASON FOR IT TO TURN ON OR OFF.

TAKATA RECALL I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA MANY TIMES REGARDING THE SAFETY OF THE AIRBAGS IN MY VAN. THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY IS IN QUESTION. EVEN THOUGH A RECALL DOES NOT COME UP WHEN I ENTER THE VIN IN SAFERCAR.GOV, I AM TOLD BY TOYOTA THAT DOESN'T MEAN MY VAN WON'T BE SUBJECT TO A RECALL IN THE FUTURE. I NEED TO KNOW! MY FAMILY AND I ARE EXPECTED TO PLAY RUSSIAN ROULETTE EVERY TIME WE GET IN THE VAN.TOYOTA REPS ARE PLAYING A GUESSING GAME WHEN THEY GIVE ME INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY VAN. THEY CANNOT TELL ME WHY MY VAN IS NOT BEING RECALLED. I NEED SPECIFICS SUCH AS WHO MADE THE AIRBAG IN MY VAN, TOYOTA SAYS THEY CANNOT TELL ME THIS BECAUSE THEIR LAWYERS HAVE TOLD THEM NOT TO GIVE OUT THAT INFO. THE PERSON WHO GAVE ME THIS INFO TOLD ME THEY SPOKE TO THE EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT WHERE THEY WORK AND THAT IS ALL THEY CAN TELL ME. NOT GOOD ENOUGH! I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY NOBODY WILL GIVE ME A DEFINITIVE ANSWER THAT WOULD PUT MY MIND AT EASE. COULD IT BE BECAUSE MY VAN IS A 2006 AND TAKATA KNEW OF THE AIRBAG PROBLEMS IN 2004 BUT DID NOT ADMIT TO IT UNTIL 2008? CAN THEY NOT TELL ME DEFINITIVELY BECAUSE TAKATA TAMPERED WITH INFO FROM 2004 THROUGH 2008 BEFORE THEY WENT PUBLIC WITH PROBLEM? TOYOTA REPS TELL ME THEY ARE GOING FORWARD WITH RECALLS AS THEY RECEIVE INFO FROM TAKATA AND THE NHTSA. I CANNOT TRUST TAKATA WITH THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND FOR THIS REASON I AM APPEALING TO THE NHTSA TO PLEASE GIVE ME PERMISSION TO TAKE MY VAN TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC TO HAVE THE AIRBAGS REMOVED. YOU WILL PROBABLY QUOTE THE SAFETY STATISTIC THAT MY CHANCES OF BEING KILLED IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT ARE GREATER WITHOUT AIRBAGS THAN HAVING AN AIRBAG SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODE IN MY FACE. BEFORE THE RECALL I WAS NEVER FIXATED ON GETTING IN AN ACCIDENT, NOW I AM A DISTRACTED DRIVER WORRYING IF MY AIRBAGS ARE GOING TO EXPLODE IN SOMEONE'S FACE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT BEGAN TO BLINK AFTER 145,000 MILES. SAME AS HUNDREDS OF OTHER ENTRIES SHOWN ON THIS WEBSITE. WILL BE CONTACTING TOYOTA DEALER.

2006 SIENNA LE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS FLASHING.

AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHING WITHOUT CAUSE AT 150,000 MILES

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING ON AND OFF CONSTANTLY WITHOUT ANY ACCIDENT WHEN I DRIVE IN CITY HIGHWAY.

WATER COMES OUT THE AIRBAG LOCATION ON DRIVER SIDE . THE SRS LIGHT COMES ON. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.

MY 2006 SIENNA, AIRBAG SRS LIGHT IS BLINKING ALL THE TIME, WHICH MEANS AIRBAG WON'T BE DEPLOYED DURING ACCIDENT. THIS IS VERY CRITICAL. I SAW SO MANY OWNERS OF 2006 SIENNA COMPLAIN ABOUT THE EXACTLY SAME ISSUE. WHY IS THIS NOT RECALLED?

MY 2006 SIENNA AIRBAGS UNPREDICTABLY BECOME NON-FUNCTIONAL. THAT IS, THE WARNING LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF AT UNPREDICTABLE INTERVALS. I AM TOLD BY THE DEALER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES THAT THE AIRBAGS ARE NON-FUNCTIONAL (I.E., SYSTEM SHUT DOWN) WHEN THE WARNING LIGHT IS FLASHING. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY CONCERN TO ME FOR THE SAKE OF MY FAMILY. IT IS GALLING SINCE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM WAS A MAJOR SELLING POINT OF THE CAR. AN ESTIMATE REPAIRS BY DEALER IS $1100 APPARENTLY INCLUDED REPLACING WHOLE AIRBAG SYSTEM. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY DE OWNER HAS TO RESPOND FOR A SECURE SYSTEM THAT NEVER HAD USED, AND WHY THE MANUFACTURER NOT WARNS THAT THE AIR BAG SYSTEM WILL DEGRADE OVER TIME. THE VAN IS IN MOTION ON A CITY.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON INTERMITTENTLY SOMETIMES DAYS OTHER TIMES MONTHS. NOTED NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET FROM OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS DEALER SQUAWKS THE WIRING HARNESS AND AIRBAG. VERY UNRELIABLE SAFETY PROTECTION.

TAKATA RECALL AIRBAG LIGHT ON WHEN START ENGINE AND AIRBAG LIGHT ON STILL ON NOT TURN OFF AFTER ONE MINUTER

SRS WARNING INDICATOR IS CONTINUOUSLY SHOWING UP IN A BLINKING MODE.

AIRBAG LIGHT INDICATOR IS ON WITHOUT THE CAR INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE REPAIR PERSON(DELAER) CHECKED IT AND SAYS THE COMPLETE ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REPLACED AND HE IS NOT SURE WHY IT WENT FAULT. I SUSPECT IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH THE WIRING

THE AIRBAG WARNING LAMP IS A RED IMAGE LOCATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL . NEED TO CHANGE OR RECALL . THANK

THE SRS WARNING LIGHT ON MY 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA WENT ON. ON CHECKING WITH TOYOTA SERVICE, I WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD COST ME $624/- TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY HAD REPORTED THAT THERE WAS A B0111 (OPENING IN SWITCH CORE ERROR) THAT HAPPENED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE TOYOTA SIENNA AND MUST BE PART OF A FACTORY RECALL. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FOLKS WITH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE TOYOTA SIENNA 2006 MODEL.

AIR BAG LIGHT BLINKING, HAS COME UP SEVERAL TIMES, THE WEB IS FULL OF UNHAPPY PEOPLE WITH THIS PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL ACCORDING TO DEALER.

THE SRS WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE READ MANY ONLINE FORUMS AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM.

I AM USUALLY ABLE TO FIX IT BY JIGGLING THE WIRING UNDER THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS.
