2005 Toyota SEQUOIA Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Model Year	2005
File date	05/06/15
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Have received at least two recall letters from toyota advising that this vehicle has been included in takata air bag recall, however, because it is not in one of the high humidity areas, toyota will not replace the air bag. The recall had affected toyota sequoia model year 2002 to 2007, my model year is 2005. Now that the nhtsa has forced the auto makers to be realistic; toyota magically redefines the toyota sequoia model years as only 2002 and 2003 toyota sequoia. I believe this to be very underhanded. If i had moved to gulf coast area with my 2005 sequoia,then my vehicle would be repaired with a new air bag module; because i live in a non-gulf coast area, the very same vehicle is not involved in a nationwide recall. Very disingenuous!! I was under the impression that nhtsa actions were to force the automakers to expand the recall of these takata airbags, not narrowly focus the recall to two model years from six model years. I imagine that is considerable initial savings for toyota. I believe nhtsa should investigate how several model years get removed from nationwide recall list, appears that other manufacturers are actually expanding their takata air bag recall to cover a wider range of vehicles and making it nationwide.

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.
