ON JANUARY 6, 2019, I WAS INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS MULTI-VEHICLE COLLISION ON THE HIGHWAY IN WHICH MY TOYOTA CAMRY WAS VIOLENTLY REAR-ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE TRAVELING AT 70MPH. THE COLLISION WAS OF SUCH FORCE THAT MY CAMRY WAS RAMMED FORWARD CAUSING ME TO COLLIDE INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME AND A DOMINO EFFECT OF THREE ADDITIONAL VEHICLES IN FRONT OF HIM. PHYSICALLY, I SUSTAINED A CERVICAL SPINE INJURY, RIB CONTUSION, LEFT KNEE JOINT DAMAGE AS WELL AS CUTS AND BRUISES. WHAT I FOUND MOST DISTURBING OF ALL IS THAT NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THE MANY AIR BAGS IN MY TOYOTA CAMRY DEPLOYED. THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME AND THE VEHICLE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME ALL HAD FUNCTIONING AIR BAGS THAT DEPLOYED DURING THE COLLISION. THE CHAIN REACTION CRASH PUT ME IN A DANGEROUS POSITION (SANDWICHED BY TWO VEHICLES) AND MY VEHICLE SUSTAINED THE MOST HARMFUL IMPACT OF ALL THE VEHICLES INVOLVED. SINCE THE DATE OF THE ACCIDENT, I HAVE HAD RESTLESS NIGHTS AS I KEEP THINKING HOW MY LIFE WAS IN JEOPARDY AND WHY MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AS A SAFETY FEATURE DURING THIS COLLISION.

Toyota is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 Avalon, Avalon HV, Venza, Camry, and Camry HV vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the drain hose for the air conditioning condenser may become clogged causing water to accumulate at the bottom of the air conditioning condenser unit housing. The accumulated water may then leak through a seam in the housing onto the air bag control module potentially resulting in a short circuit of the module.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A short circuit may cause the air bags to become disabled or inadvertently deploy. An inadvertent airbag deployment can increase the risk of injury or the possibility of a crash. An inoperative airbag can increase the risk of injury in a severe crash. The power steering assist could also become inoperable resulting in increased steering effort and can increase the risk of a crash at low speeds.
Remedy: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will seal the air conditioning condenser unit housing and install a protective cover on the airbag control module, free of charge. The recall began on February 5, 2014. Owners may contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331.

Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (SET) is recalling certain models interspersed through model years 2009 through 2013 as follows: model year 2009-2012 Tacoma, 4Runner, Camry, Camry Hybrid, Prius, and RAV4; model year 2009-2010 Avalon, FJ Cruiser, and Highlander Hybrid; model year 2010-2013 model year Corolla, Sienna and Tundra; model year 2009-2013 Highlander and Venza; model year 2012 Prius V; and model year 2010-2012 Sequoia. During modification by SET to include accessories such as leather seat covers, seat heaters or headrest DVD systems, these vehicles may not have had the passenger seat occupant sensing system calibration tested. Without passing the calibration test, the occupant sensing system may not operate as designed.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the front passenger seat occupant sensing system is out of calibration, the front passenger airbags may not deploy or they may deploy inappropriately for the passenger's size and position. This could increase the risk of personal injury during the event of a vehicle crash necessitating airbag deployment.
Remedy: Southeast Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will test the sensitivity of the occupant detection sensors, and recalibrate them as necessary. The recall began on March 21, 2013. Owners may contact Southeast Toyota at 1-800-301-6859.
