2017 Toyota Camry Airbags Problems

While your wife was driving at 25 MPH and pressed the brake pedal to stop, the brakes failed completely—the pedal sank to the floor and the car couldn't stop, resulting in a collision with another vehicle. The airbags did not deploy during the crash, though no one was injured. The cause hasn't been determined yet, but Toyota confirmed your vehicle's VIN is not part of a recall related to the power brake booster vacuum pump. Diagnosing this issue will likely require a mechanic to inspect the brake system components and test the brake booster function.

Your car was involved in a crash where another vehicle hit the driver's side front door. The side airbags and steering wheel airbag failed to deploy during the collision, resulting in serious injuries to the driver. An independent service center confirmed the airbags did not function, and the issue was also verified by police and insurance inspectors. There were no warning lights or messages before the crash indicating an airbag system problem. Resolving this requires a complete airbag system diagnostic and likely replacement of non-functional airbag modules and sensors.

Vehicle was involved in accident on 08/22/2021. The speed was 55-60 mph . The vehicle in front, a 2014 Chevrolet 4wd full size pick up changed lanes (left to right) clipping the left front of the Toyota & slammed on brakes. The Toyota went under the bumper & right rear fender of the truck. The damage to the Toyota included the ECU, ABS & brake components, wiring harness & fuse/relay blocks, & all of the sheet metal, bumper, A/C,etc. Insurance company opted to repair the vehicle (cost is now approaching $18,000). My wife & granddaughter (adult) were the front seat occupants. They both sustained bruises but no serious injuries. If the air bags do not deploy in an accident that destroys the entire front end of a 4 year old vehicle with 25,000 miles (we purchased new), what does it take for them to deploy? Does not give us much confidence in the safety. The vehicle is currently at Greenville Toyota Body Shop in Greenville,SC. Repairs started 09/02/2021. Waiting for interior wiring harness. No warning lights or issues before the crash. The battery was destroyed in the crash.
