I HAVE A TOYOTA CAMERY 2013. I HAVE NO ACCIDENT AT ALL SINCE I BOUGHT THIS CAR. BUT ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO, MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AUTOMATICALLY WITH ON REASON. I FELT MY LIFE IS IN DANGER BECAUSE IF THERE IS A COLLISION HAPPENS, MY AIRBAG WONT PUMP OUT. I HAVE VISITED TO DIFFERENT CAR DEALOR. THEY SAID THE WIRE CIRCUIT MIGHT BE WRONG SINCE THEY TRIED TO SWITCH AIRBAG MODULES OR THE SENSOR NOTHING WORKS SO FAR. I ASSUME THE AIRBAG WHICH IS THE KEY COMPONENT FOR OUR DRIVERS' SAFETY SHOULD BE MORE ROBUST THAN WHAT I EXPERIENCED.

THE AIRBAG SAFETY LIGHT HAS COME ON AND REMAINED ON FOR 2 WEEKS THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT'S A FAILED SENSOR. I HAVE NEVER BEEN ON A CAR CRASH. THE AIRBAG SENSOR IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN FUNCTIONAL FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. OTHERWISE, MY AIRBAG MIGHT DEPLOY UNEXPECTEDLY OR FAIL TO DEPLOY WHEN I NEED THEM.

I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT WITH A LIGHT POLE NO CAUGHT OF MINE E THE FRONT END OF MY CAR SMASHED IN AND MY AIR BAG DIDN'T DEPLOY A D WHEN MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKES AND THE CAR ACCELERATED WITH THE GAS WITH OUT ME HITTING IT.

BAG IT'S ON

, I HAVE PERMANENT EAR DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF THE DEPLOYMENT OF AIR BAGS IN A 2012 TOYOTA CAMRY I WAS DRIVING. I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT AND WAS THE REASON FOR THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. I INJURED MY EARS ON AUGUST 4, 2013 AS THE RESULT OF THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAGS IN THE 2013 CAMRY AND MY HEARING HAS NOT IMPROVED. I WILL HAVE TO LIVE WITH A 20% HEARING LOSS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THE CAMRY WAS NOT THE FAULT OF MY ACCIDENT BUT I FEEL THE AIR BAGS ARE A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR FOR MY HEARING LOSS.

THE PICKUP TRUCK WAS HIT WITH SUCH A FORCE THAT IT OVER TURNED, PINNING THE DRIVER INSIDE. *JS
