Description of the problem	Air bag warning light flashes continuously from time to time, then operates normally after instrument panel start up check. Many similar comments may be found on internet by searching 2004 (and other model years) toyota avalon. Dealers nor toyota manufacturing appear not to have an absolute/accurate resolution. Some technicians feel the problem (among others) may be related to a steering recall repair as a cable within the steering column could have been damaged in the repair process or steering system failure or as an inadvertent cable wear under normal steering conditions. Owners are bearing the cost of repair and loss of vehicle resale value. Unknown is the potential lack of passenger safety if the air bag system is inoperative. Accident records indicate that in some accident cases air bags have not deployed and passenger injury/death has occurred.
