Toyota air bag electronic control unit (ECU) may erroneously detect a fault during the vehicle start-up self check.
The short version
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing reported a problem with the electrical system software. Here is what owners need to know.
The air bag electronic control unit (ECU) may erroneously detect a fault during the vehicle start-up self check. If this occurs, the ECU may not deploy the airbags as intended, in the event of a crash.
If the air bags do not deploy as intended, it can increase the risk of injury in a crash.
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the air bag ECU, free of charge.
