The short version

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing reported a problem with the air bags. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The supplemental restraint system (SRS) circuits are susceptible to internal shorting. The electrical short may create an abnormal current flow and increased heat which can damage the circuits.

WHY IT MATTERS

Inadvertent deployment of the airbags or the seat belt pretensioners may increase the risk of injury and the possibility of a vehicle crash.

WHAT TO DO

Toyota will re-notify their owners who have already had their vehicles repaired with a noise filter, but did not receive a new airbag control module, and General Motors will re-notify theirs, free of charge.
