If this is to do with the Takata airbag recalls, there have been 13 deaths and approx. 150 people injured worldwide.

70 million vehicles worldwide are currently subject to recalls

The percentage of injuries and deaths attributed to these airbags as a percentage of the affected vehicles is 0.00021% and 0.00001%.

So the chance of the airbags in your Yaris causing injury or death as a result of faulty airbag inflators is relatively small, if not minute.

There is one very simple fix, it involves booking it in at your dealer and having them replaced for free, simples ;)

If you wish to disable the front passenger airbag for fitment of of a rear facing child set then there is a switch on the passenger end of the dash between the dash and the passenger door, otherwise the other airbags cannot be disabled without interfering with the car.
