SINCE PURCHASE, VEHICLE STEERING HAS EXCESSIVE "PLAY", WHICH REQUIRES TOO MANY STEERING CORRECTIONS, ESPECIALLY UNDER WINDY CONDITIONS. CONDITION IS MOST OBVIOUS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THERE HAS BEEN NO "FAILURE" PER SAY, BUT SUCH INFORMATION SHOULD BE MADE KNOWN TO OTHER BUYERS. NO "REPAIRS" FOR THIS ITEM HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTED BECAUSE IT UNFORTUNATELY APPEARS TO BE "NORMAL" FOR THIS VEHICLE. SUCH A CONDITION, HOWEVER, SEEMS VERY UNSAFE.

THE SRS LIGHT BEGAN TO BLINK. I TOOK THE VAN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO AN OPEN AIR BAG IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHICH WOULD COST $2000 TO REPAIR. I HAVE SINCE SEARCHED THE INTERNET TO FIND SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. THE YELLOW HARNESS UNDER THE SEAT COULD POSSIBLY BE THE PROBLEM. IF THIS WIRE IS WIGGLED, THE LIGHT GOES OFF FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. HOWEVER, IT RETURNS LATER. I FEEL LIKE SRS SAFETY SHOULD BE COVERED FOR THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE UNLESS THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND THEY DEPLOY (AS THEY SHOULD UNLESS THERE IS A FAULTY MECHANISM SUCH AS MINE HAS). TOYOTA SHOULD DO THEIR PART TO KEEP CUSTOMERS SAFE, ESPECIALLY AFTER WE HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS ON A VEHICLE IN HOPES OF HAVING A SAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE. *TR
