Toyota issued out a recall on my vehicle. The recall was on 03-04 corolla's and the issue is that the airbag could deploy at any moment or in the event of an accident it would not deploy. They fixed the computer, sensor assy, the airbag it self and the harness. However, they would not replace a cable(knowing that this part was a faulty part) since they said it wasn't part of the recall. Now with this cable its…

Our airbag light came on, and we had the car checked by airbag service of utah. They found that the spiral cable was defective, so a new part was ordered and replaced. Toyota recalled vehicles with the same spiral cable issue, but only beginning with model year 2005. Ours is a 2004 model, and we feel that the expenses we put into replacing this part should be reimbursed as part of the recall issues. *tr
