Description of the problem	About 8/13/15, my airbag light came on. On 8/20/15, i had a dealer diagnose the problem. They told me that the spiral cable is not working and my airbag will most likely not deploy if i am in an accident. When i went online to see what the spiral cable is many recall notices for my make and model of car began to show up in the search engine. The way that the service person described the problem to me is exactly what is documented in the recall notices, but my car is not covered by the recall. I have talked with both the dealer and a have gotten to a supervisor at toyota, but am still waiting to hear back whether they are willing to do anything. I have also noticed in many chat rooms that many other rav4 owners have had the problem outside of the recall. When i look at documents on the nhtsa website, there is a document from toyota called part 573, defect information report. On this document the vin numbers that are affected are listed. My vin seems to fit, and i am not sure why my car is not part of the recall. I am documenting my issues in the hopes that others will too and the recall will be expanded to include my car.

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.
