| Description of the problem | My husband was replacing door handle when he took off the left front door panel, he found that the airbag sensor has disintegrated from the inside out. We took pictures took it into dublin ca toyota. They will not repair this. I then had some repair work done on the right side of my car and the owner of the shop also reported that the same thing on the right side . He stated that this is a default and it could very likely cause the airbag to go off prematurely or not work if there was an impact , that this was a danger to who ever was driving my car. I have photos and also a report from dublin toyota . I'm not only in fear for my safety but the fact that toyota shows no concern for my safety and how many others could have the same issue.
