2007 Toyota Yaris Complaints

AIR BAG LIGHT ON AND POWER TRAIN SPEED SENSOR LIGHT ON

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA YARIS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS IN ALGERIA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

TAKATA RECALL THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY WHEN I HIT BLACK ICE WENT OFF A 150FT CLIFF UP NORTH SHOULDN'T BE ALIVE SEAT BELT DID HELP.THIS HAPPEN DEC 12018 IN THE EARLY MORNING WAS GOING TO WORK AND WENT AROUND CORNER HIT GUARD RAIL FIRST PASSENGER AIR BAG DIDN'T DEPLOY AT ALL ON MY WAY TO TRUCKEE CAN, HAPPEN RIGHT AFTER BISHOP CA WENT TO TRAMA

ANY DAY, ANY WEATHER, ANY ROAD CONDITIONS. THE ROAD COULD BE AS DRY AS A BONE. WHEN I DRIVE AROUND A CURVE (IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I'M DRIVING 45 MPH, OR 15 MPH), THE BREAK PEDAL WILL ENGAGE ON IT'S OWN, THE STEERING WHEEL WILL LOCK, AND A BEEPING ALARM WILL GO OFF. I HAVE NO CONTROL OF THE VAN. IT WILL PUT ME INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. EVERYDAY. EVERYDAY. ANY TIME I DRIVE THIS VAN. MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY FOR THE LAST 15 MONTHS. LOTS OF $, AND LOTS OF TRIPS TO DEALER AND CAR REPAIR SHOPS. CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM, BUT IT'S A MAJOR PROBLEM. WE TRIED NEW TIRES, CHANGING WHEEL SENSORS, NEW BRAKES, ADDING FLUID TO STEERING WHEEL COLUMN, NEW AXELS... AND THE LIST GOES ON. NOTHING FIXES THE PROBLEM. I'VE READ A LOT OF SIMILAR STORIES ON THE INTERNET. LOTS PF PEOPLE, SAME PROBLEM, AND NOTHING IS FIXING THE PROBLEM ON ANYONE'S VAN. THERE ISN'T A SOLUTION TO A MAJOR PROBLEM.

IN APPROXIMATELY MAY 2015 I REPLACED THE HUB ON THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL. AFTER THE ITEM WAS REPLACED AND ABS SENSOR REATTACHED I HAVE HAD THE ISSUE OF ABS AND EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT ON CONTINUALLY ON THE DASH UPON STARTUP, THEY NEVER GO OFF!!! NEEDLESS TO SAY I HAVE LOST ABS SINCE THAT TIME. I HAVE HAD THE DIAGNOSTICS CHECKED AND THERE WERE THREE ABS RELAY SENSOR WARNING FAULTS, FRONT RIGHT, AND BOTH BACK WHEELS. SINCE THEN I HAVE REPLACED ALL THE WIRING HARNESSES FOR THE THREE WHEELS. THE DIAGNOSTIC SHOWS NO ABS RELAY FAULTS. THE ABS AND EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT STILL INCESSANTLY STAY LIT ON THE DASH. I HAVE ALSO TRIED TO RESET THE INTERNAL COMPUTER BY REMOVING THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL ON THE BATTERY. I AM IN THE MILITARY AND HAVE READ MANY ISSUES AND FAULTS REGARDING THIS ABS ISSUE, AND IT WOULD BE VERY EXPENSIVE FOR TOYOTA OR A MECHANIC TO TRY AND FIX THIS ISSUE, THAT I HAVE SEEN OCCURRING ON MANY TOYOTAS ACROSS THE USA. THAT'S WHY I HAVE TRIED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE ON MY OWN. NOW I AM PCS'ING...
