Corolla Airbags

October 12, 2005

I Purchaced a brand new Corolla colour collection at the end of july.

Two weeks ago the drivers side curtain airbag went off on it,s own! great I didnt even hit anything.

the car has been in the garage for 2 weeks and the data sent off to Japan, this may take another 2 weeks.

I am not happy :angry: would love to know if anyone else has had an airbag with a mint of it,s own.

Just to keep you all posted, My car is still in the garage, although it has moved to salford! I am at the moment driving a vw golf curtosy of Toyota :( I think it will have to be a new Yaris when they come out :thumbsup: That's if I ever get my corolla back.

Never heard of that happening. Sounds like Toyota are taking it very seriously, as of course they should. I hope you've got a good courtesy car while yours is off the road?
