VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:ACCELERATOR PEDAL
2005 TOYOTA TACOMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO SAFETY RECALL NOTICE. *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, WHERE THEY FOUND THREE OTHER THINGS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE, WHICH DID NOT PERTAIN TO THE RECALL. THE CONSUMER STATED IS SEEMED THE DEALER WANTED TO GET PAID FIRST, FOR OTHER THINGS, THEY CLAIMED WERE WRONG WITH HIS VEHICLE. UPDATED 02/06/13

AIR BAGS
THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND IS NOT MODIFIED IN ANY WAY. THE VEHICLE IS 8 YEARS AND HAS 64,000 MILES. AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. DEALER DIAGNOSED FAULTY SPIRAL CABLE, $500 REPAIR. AFTER REPAIR, CONDITION RETURNED. SUBSEQUENTLY A RECALL WAS ISSUED BY TOYOTA FOR THE SPIRAL CABLE. NEW SPIRAL CABLE WAS INSTALLED BY DEALER. AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT RETURNED WITHIN 1 WEEK. RETURNED TO DEALER, NEW DIAGNOSIS: NEED TO REPLACE ENGINE WIRING HARNESS. COST $2300 + TAX. DISPUTE STARTED WITH TOYOTA USA. TOYOTA SUBSEQUENTLY OFFERED TO PAY FOR 1/2 OF THE COST OF THE REPLACEMENT PART, LEAVING ME TO PAY THE OTHER HALF AND THE REPLACEMENT LABOR. TEXT OF RECALL: "DUE TO COMBINATION OF FACTORS, A PART IN THE STEERING WHEEL ASSEMBLY IN YOUR VEHICLE CALLED THE SPIRAL CABLE MAY BECOME DAMAGED. IF DAMAGE OCCURS, THIS CAN AFFECT THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO SEVERAL SYSTEMS, INCLUDING THE DRIVERВїїS AIR BAG. SUCH DAMAGE WOULD CAUSE THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT TO STAY ON AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE, AND THE AIR BAG MAY NOT WORK. THIS COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE DRIVER IN A CRASH IN WHICH THE AIR BAG IS DESIGNED TO INFLATE." THE CRITICAL PART OF THE RECALL NOTICE IS "THE SPIRAL CABLE MAY BECOME DAMAGED. IF DAMAGE OCCURS, THIS CAN AFFECT THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO SEVERAL SYSTEMS, INCLUDING THE DRIVERВїїS AIR BAG". IT APPEARS THAT TOYOTA RECOGNIZES THE EFFECT OF A DAMAGED SPIRAL CABLE (THE ISSUE OF THE RECALL) ON OTHER SYSTEMS BUT REFUSES TO REPAIR ANY SUCH DAMAGE WHEN FOUND. THE SPIRAL CABLE HAS BEEN REPLACE TWICE, THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS STILL ON, AND ACCORDING TO NYS LAW THE VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION BECAUSE OF THE FAILURE OF A FACTORY INSTALLED SAFETY COMPONENT. *TR
