Description of the problem	Air bag srs sensor light flashing intermittently flashing off and on. This is a life/safety issue, as i do not know if i can rely on my srs system to properly function or not. It is also extremely agitating and distracting when driving overnight and/or on long distances, to have a dashboard warning light flash off and on. The srs light was first observed flashing several times in march 2010, but then stopped. It started flashing again while on a cross-state trip in december 2010. As i had, my wife and two young children in the van, i immediately pulled off the road and called the dealership (toyota of richardson, richardson tx). I was advised at that time that it would be safe for me to continue with my trip. When i returned home, i took the car to the dealership. The dealer took no action stating on the service ticket the srs light was "?? Not flashing today"??. To date, the srs light continues to flash on and off at weeks or months at a time. From the internet, i recently learned that a tsb #284073 (nhtsa action number: 10034130) was issued by toyota to its dealerships back on june 23, 2010 (six months before i brought the vehicle in), as well as three earlier tsb's (el001-08, tsb-0252-08 & tsb-0162-10) all related to srs lamp/sensors . To date, i still do not know if i have a properly functioning srs system. I also note that of the 684 complaints currently registered with the nhtsa, involving the 2006 toyota sienna, more than one-third (33%) of those complaints (234) involve the air bag sensor/light issue. In july 2013, my van was involved in a rear-end collision. The air bag did not deploy. Was its failure to deploy due to the nature/intensity of the impact, or the fact that the srs system is not properly functioning? I have no assurance it works properly. At this late date, i guess i'll simply be complaint #685. Thank you

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?
