Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing "Toyota" is recalling certain 2004-2006 Toyota Scion xA vehicles. The air bag control module for the supplemental restraint system "SRS ECU" may experience an internal short, possibly causing the air bags to unintentionally deploy, or become deactivated.
If the air bags and/or seat belt pretensioners unintentionally deploy, it can increase the risk of a crash. If the air bags and/or seat belt pretensioners are deactivated, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the SRS ECU, and if necessary, replace the air bag control module, free of charge. The recall began December 21, 2018. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371. Toyota's number for this recall is J0W.
