Consumer Description

OUR DRIVER SIDE SRS AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY ON FOR OVER A YEAR. SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T GO OUT WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED AND STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING; OTHER TIMES IT GOES OUT LIKE NORMAL A FEW SECONDS AFTER THE CAR IS STARTED, BUT SPONTANEOUSLY COMES ON AND STAYS ON LATER WHILE DRIVING. ONCE IT'S ON, I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN THE IGNITION OFF, WAIT A FEW SECONDS, AND THEN RESTART THE CAR TO GET IT TO TURN OFF. THIS IS NOT ALWAYS SUCCESSFUL. THE TOYOTA DEALER WAS NO HELP AT ALL - COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG, AND SAID THAT I'D NEED TO BRING THE CAR BACK WHEN THE LIGHT WAS ACTUALLY ON. SINCE THE PROBLEM IS INCONSISTENT, I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DO THAT. I'M VERY AFRAID THAT SOMEONE IN MY FAMILY MAY BE INJURED SHOULD WE GET IN A COLLISION, BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND THAT IF THE LIGHT IS ON, THE AIRBAG IS INOPERABLE. *TR
