AIR BAGS

Manufacturer
TOYOTA MOTOR NORTH AMERICA, INC.
What Happened
The air bag inflators in your vehicle are critical safety devices that deploy in a crash to cushion your head, neck, and body. Unfortunately, some of these inflators have a problem: they might not have enough of the right chemicals to work properly.
Risk if Unfixed
If your air bag doesn't inflate as it should in a crash, you're at greater risk of serious injury. This could happen if you're sitting in the seat where the faulty air bag is located, and it could leave you unprotected in a collision.
Free Fix
Your dealer will replace the faulty air bag inflator with a new one, completely free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible to ensure your air bag is working properly to protect you in case of an accident.

Original — What Happened
ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, DUE TO IMPROPER ASSEMBLY OF THE AIR BAG INFLATOR, WHICH IS USED IN THE SIDE AIR BAG, THE CURTAIN SHIELD AIR BAG, AND THE KNEE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY, SOME INFLATORS WERE PRODUCED WITH AN INSUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF THE HEATING AGENTS NECESSARY FOR PROPER AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. IN THIS CONDITION, THE EXPANSION FORCE OF THE GAS MAY BE INSUFFICIENT TO PROPERLY INFLATE THE AIR BAG WHEN THE SRS SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED DURING A CRASH.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
THIS MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE OCCUPANT IN THE INVOLVED SEATING POSITION IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH.
Original — Remedy
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE SPECIFIC SRS AIR BAG. THE RECALL BEGAN ON APRIL 6, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT TOYOTA AT 1-888-270-9371, SCION AT 1-866-548-1851, OR LEXUS AT 1-800-255-3987.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Manufacturer
SABERSPORT
What Happened
You have a set of after-market corner and bumper lights installed on your vehicle. These lights might not have the required safety reflectors, which can make it harder for other drivers to see your vehicle in certain conditions.
Risk if Unfixed
Without the correct reflectors, your vehicle's lights may not be visible to other drivers, especially in low-light conditions, which could lead to a vehicle crash.
Free Fix
You'll be notified by Sabersport, and they'll give you a full refund for the non-compliant lights. You should contact Sabersport at 1-909-598-7589 to arrange the refund.
