NHTSA Complaint #11315344 — 2003 TOYOTA COROLLA MATRIX

I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR ONLY A FEW MONTHS. I RECIVED THE RECALL FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. TOOK TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP ON DIXIE . I ALSO ASKED FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE SRS LIGHT BEING ON ON THE DASH. I WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP I NEEDED A NEW FRONT DRIVER AIRBAG DUE TO A SHORT. I LOOKED BACK AT THE MATRIX RECALLS . AND THERE IS A RECALL ON THE STEERING WHEEL CABLE SSUE THAT IS RELATED TO THE AIRBAG AND THE CIRCUIT OVER HEARING THAT IS RELATED TO AN AIRBAG RECALL ISSUE. I CALLED THE PERVIOUS OWNER AND SHE SAID SHE HAD AN ACCIDENT AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. SHE ALSO TOOK THE CAR TO DEALERSHIP FOR A RECALL IN 2016 AND WAS TOLD SHE NEEDED A NEW FRONT DRIVER AIRBAG. THIS CAR SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE CURRENT RECALLS FOR THE ABOVE ISSUE. THIS ISSUE HAS PLACED MY FAMILY AND MYSELF IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION DUE TO THE UNSAFE ,SAFETY EQUIPTMENT. THE SRS LIGHTS COMES ON WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED AND DOES NOT GO OFF. THIS IS THE REASON FOR THE DIAGNOSIS. TOYOTA SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AND CORRECT THE SAFETY EQUIPTMENT FAILURES.
