| Description of the problem | My car has always been kept in the garage, except for being at work. I have cracks all over the passengers side airbags. I was in the hospital getting a lung transplant when the extended service letter came out offering to replace it. I didn't drive for two years because of illness. When i went to the toyota dealer he said i missed the deadline by a week. He said he had the parts and would like to do it but would need an ok from toyota corporate . I called toyota and they said there is nothing they can do. If there is a class action lawsuit on this i would like to join |
