Description of the problem	My 2006 sienna xle has less than 55, 000 miles. Just before the new year, the airbag light started flashing continuously. We got the car in on dec. 30 and were told the flashing light was due to a faulty wiring harness in the front passenger seat, which is covered under the regular (and my extended) warranty, but that the parts were not available at the time so i would have to bring the car back. I specially asked if the vehicle was safe to drive and was told my the initial service rep that it was. The service rep failed to follow up with making an appointment as promised, so i called one week later to find out that the parts were going to take in excess of 4 weeks to arrive! I was highly suspicious that the airbag was in working order, so it was no surprise that when i threatened to sue toyota if the airbag failed or malfunctioned in any way in an accident or otherwise, that i was then told my car was unsafe to drive and the dealer would provide a rental at their cost. An order was placed on january 6th for the part which was scheduled to come in 6 weeks later, feb. 9th. After waiting six weeks, i found out yesterday my order was "accidentally" canceled and that the manufacturer can't keep up production, so presumably, i'm starting my wait time again. I have lodged a complaint with toyota hdqt and have a case id with them. There are hundreds of similar complaints here and on the internet but no recall or notice from toyota about the fact that folks are driving around with flashing air bag lights that mean your airbag may not deploy in an accident and is deactivated because of the faulty wiring harness system. My dealer had 6 complaints alone, six weeks ago. This is outrageous!!! I am calling nhtsa as soon as i finish this complaint.

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.
