2021 Toyota Corolla - AIR BAGS Failure Complaint (#b0b12b)

2021 Toyota Corolla

  • Date of Incident: Mar-27, 2024
  • Date complaint filed: Mar-27, 2024
  • Failed components: AIR BAGS

I am filing this complaint to report a significant safety concern regarding my 2021 Toyota Corolla LE due to the recall on it. The passenger airbag sensor issue poses a serious risk to the safety of myself and my passengers. Despite being aware of the recall and its associated risks, the remedy for this safety concern is not expected to be available until the end of the year. This delay is concerning as it leaves me and other owners of affected vehicles vulnerable to potential accidents or injuries. I have attempted to address this issue with the manufacturer, but I have not received a satisfactory response or resolution as they said they need to wait for the Toyota HQ to provide the remedy for this manufacturing error. Therefore, I am submitting this complaint to request assistance from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addressing this safety concern promptly and effectively. We were told this recall would be completed by February of this year 2024 but it still has not been resolved
