| Description of the problem | This has been going on for two days now. There is a buzzing like something is malfunctioning on my passenger side coming from the dash i brought the vehicle to pep boys and they said that my air bag is malfunctioning. Is result of this my job won't let me drive patients because of the danger. This really needs to be fixed. I know for a fact it's the airbag because toyota told when i brought it there because pep boys told go to the dealership for them to confirm and it was!. This happens in motion and a little while in motion. When it is humid outside the buzzing is even worser to where the side panel vy drivers left leg vibrate. |
