2005 Toyota RAV4 Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Internal NHTSA #	10758492
Manufacurer	Toyota Motor Corporation
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	RAV4
Model Year	2005
File date	19/08/15
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	A representative at passport toyota, located at 5001 auth way, suitland, md told me that because my airbag light wasn't on that they were not going to provide me with a rental vehicle until toyota announces a permanent solution for my car. This is not only in direct violation of my recall notice (it specifically states that if i feel unsafe driving my car, then the dealership will provide me with a rental) but displays that representative's ignorance of the recall notification, which also states that there is no warning light or other indication that the issue with my drivers side airbag exists. Since i live in a major metropolitan area (washington dc) where multiple vehicle accidents happen daily, i feel incredibly unsafe driving without the full assurance of a working drivers side airbag. As stipulated in the recall notice, the dealership is obliged to provide me with a rental vehicle given that toyota does not have a solution to this problem at this time. I also called darcars toyota on 12210 cherry hill road, silver spring, md, and i was told that they would not provide me with a car either. I find it appalling and abhorrent that 2 dealerships in a major metropolitan area would refuse to comply with the conditions of a recall notice, especially one that involves a drivers side airbag given the current recall situation with a similar part on a different vehicle.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
