Toyota Sienna Recall 19V318: Air Bags May Deploy Unexpectedly or Fail to Deploy

NHTSA campaign 19V318, reported April 23, 2019, 274 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Incorrect welds inside the passenger front door may interfere with the air bag sensor readings for the passenger side front seat air bag and the curtain shield air bags. Because of this, those air bags could deploy unintentionally or fail to deploy when they are needed.

An air bag that goes off when it should not, or does not go off in a crash, raises the risk of a crash and of injury to the passenger or other occupants.

Toyota will notify owners, and authorized dealers will replace the passenger side front door sub assembly with a new one at no cost to you. To see whether your vehicle is affected, check your VIN for open recalls, and you can contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371.
