I took it to my local toyota dealership and i was told that the airbag was faulty and it would have to be replaced. I assumed that it (the airbag) would be replaced at toyota's expense, because of there many airbag recalls. This was not the case, toyota is claiming that my vehicle is not on the airbag recall list.

    Took car to dealership regarding air bags, electrical, and engine feeling hot. Check engine light was on....i did not have money for the diagnostic nor the maintenance they suggested.. Around $1500. I assumed they checked the airbags, but thought it odd that they did not give me any paperwork. They said everything was fine.
