NHTSA Complaint #11277784 — 2005 TOYOTA COROLLA

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHEN I STARTED THE CAR AND STAYED ON. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND FOUND OUT THAT MY VEHICLE WAS UNDER RECALL FOR THE AIRBAG. I TOOK IT IN AND HAD THAT REPAIR DONE, BUT THE WARNING LIGHT DID NOT GO OFF. THE DEALER SAID IT NEEDS A NEW SPIRAL CABLE ASSEMBLY, AT A COST OF NEARLY $500. THE DEALER SAID THE AIRBAG MAY NOT INFLATE DURING A CRASH. IN SEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR INFORMATION ABOUT THIS REPAIR, I DISCOVERED THAT OTHER TOYOTAS ARE UNDER RECALL FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. I WOULD LIKE MY VEHICLE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR INCLUSION IN THIS RECALL AND THE COST OF REPAIR COVERED.
