The airbag light in my '06 toyota 4runner is on and won't turn off even after letting it idle for "6 seconds" as recommended by the recent letter from toyota that i received. i have been informed that an official fix/recall for the airbags will not be available until september 2016. the takata airbags have killed and permanently maimed people thus far. fingers crossed that i can make it until september without being killed/injured by my car.

The airbag light appeared while i was driving, i was googling why this happened and came across a forum talking about similar incidents. i was reading that after the light appeared most of the same year and model the airbags are exploding while driving. i am concerned with my safety and my family's safety. i also read the airbags were recalled for 4runners. please i need to make sure everything will be fine while driving my truck. thank you! *tr

The air bag warning lamp went off around 145k miles while i was driving. went to a fred anderson toyota charleston, sc and the advisor stated that it was just the lamp and that the airbag is still functional. approximately after 200 miles, the light reappeared, but as the toyota advisor stated it was still functional, i ignored it. at my next check up at leith toyota raleigh, nc. (153,953 miles) the advisor at that time told me that it was a failed spiral cable assembly. come to find out there actually has been recalls on the spiral cable assembly. as stated in the toyota recall ("the steering column assembly in the involved vehicles contains a spiral cable assembly with electrical connections to the driver's airbag module that could become damaged when the steering wheel is turned. if this occurs, the air bag warning lamp will illuminate. in addition, the driver's air bag could become deactivated, causing it to not deploy in the event of a crash"). i just want this to be reviewed promptly considering that the recall that was made did not reach out to my model. this is a life threatening situation that has to be solved ...
