2014 Toyota Camry

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE WARNING INDICATOR HAD BEEN ILLUMINATING ON AND OFF EVER SINCE 12/16/17. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (CLAIREMONT TOYOTA IN CLAIREMONT CALIFORNIA) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FLOOR WIRE HARNESS SQUIB CIRCUIT FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,600.

AC CONDENSER UNIT PLUGS AND CREATES MOLD AND BAD SMELL FROM VENTS. MOLD CAUSES PEOPLE WITH ALLERGIES TO START HAVING REACTIONS. IN ADDITION, THERE IS CONCERN THAT 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. A SHORT CIRCUIT MAY CAUSE THE AIR BAGS TO BECOME DISABLED OR INADVERTENTLY DEPLOY. THIS IS SIMILAR TO 2013 CAMRY MODEL RECALL. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V442000. I THINK THE RECALL SHOULD EXTEND TO 2014 CAMRY MODEL AS WELL.
