Description of the problem	In 2008, the airbag dash light on our 2006 toyota sienna began blinking. We took our van to the dealer, who advised that the driver seat sensor was bad. After several repair attempts, the dealer replaced the entire driver seat, but the light continued to blink. After an extensive wait, the entire wiring harness was replaced and the light no longer blinked. In all we were without our van for nearly 3 months, awaiting parts. Because of the safety concern (airbag not deploying or deploying when it shouldn't) and because the van was under warranty, the dealer provided a loaner van while we awaited parts. On november 4, 2008, the van struck a deer and the driver's airbag deployed. Following airbag replacement and other insurance-covered repairs, the airbag dash light again began blinking. Dealer advised that the passenger seat sensor was defective and a replacement part ordered; we were advised the part would be available january 4, 2011. Toyota advised that, as van is no longer under warranty, no loaner vehicle is available. On january 4, we were advised that the problem is the wiring harness, which will not be available before february 9, 2011. Toyota has offered $35 / day toward loaner / rental vehicle. Once again this will be a 3-month out-of-service situation for a safety issue. There are many reports of 2006 toyota sienna airbag indicator / sensor / wiring harness problems reported on the internet. We believe this is a serious safety issue that toyota has avoided addressing as a system / recall issue, corporate behavior consistent with earlier accelerator safety issues on its vehicles.

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.
