Problems with 1999 Toyota Tacoma AIR BAGS

Takata recall- my husband had a seizure while driving. he crossed over to oncoming traffic. he hit one car, went over a curb and down an embankment and ended up hitting the back of a subway. his car went through the wall into the subway. air bags did not deploy. police did file a report and he was taken to the hospital in an ambulance. his car was totaled.

Tl* the contact owns a 1999 toyota tacoma. the contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mph, the driver suddenly lost control of the vehicle and crashed into an embankment located above a large drainage pipe. a police report was filed. the driver and passenger side air bags failed to deploy and the driver and passenger side seat belts failed to secure the occupants during the crash. the driver sustained bruising to the knees, the back and head concussions. the passenger sustained a fractured vertebrae and bruising to both legs and left arm. the driver and the passenger did not require medical attention. the vehicle was destroyed. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 154,000.

The airbag sensor won't stop blinking. what if there's an accident and the airbags won't deploy? i believe something with the airbag is defective and may be a potential safety issue.

The car in front of me stopped on the freeway and i was not able to stop in time. my front right hit his rear left, and my car spun 180 degrees into the lane next to the one i had been in and i was facing the oncoming traffic. my air bags did not deploy. *tr

3 times now i have had the airbag inoperative light illuminate, each time it has been a fault with the air bag cutoff switch, this has been replaced each time. the cutoff switch is never used, despite this it fails the airbag system each time. *tr

Tl*- the contact stated that while driving the 1999 toyota tacoma with 172000 failure mileage at 20 mph the vehicle hit a concrete pole on the center of the vehicle's bumper, and the air bags did not deploy. the driver sustained minor injuries. the contact stated that the vehicle was totally destroyed. *ak

Hit a deer on the new york state thruway when traveling about 65 mph. air bags were not activated. no serious injury to myself but had $7500 damage done to the front of my 1999 toyota tacoma pickup truck. was told by repair department that sometimes air bags are not deployed in accidents. *jb

While driving on i-5, just south of mt. shasta, at about 2:45 in the morning, i hit a 400 lb brown bear, doing the speed limit for the road in the area(65mph). the bear brought the truck to a complete stop. neither driver nor passenger side airbags deployed. i called a local toyota dealer and they said that the bear was not a stationary object, and this is why the airbags did not deploy.*ak
