On April 7, 2024, during my daily commute, I had a scary incident on the road. As I was driving my trusty car, I encountered a situation where I had to quickly react to a car suddenly braking in front of me. Unfortunately, I lost control of the steering and ended up rolling for about 80 meters. My wife and two children had a close call with a life-threatening situation, but fortunately, we only suffered temporary physical injuries. Surprisingly, all 10 airbags failed to deploy in the accident. After conducting a thorough investigation, it became clear that this problem is a recurring issue in Corolla models manufactured from 2011 to 2019. Interestingly, European countries took the initiative to issue a voluntary recall for these vehicles. Surprisingly, despite warnings from the Turkish Ministry of Commerce, no such action was taken in Turkey. I'm curious as to why the airbags in this car, which we bought with confidence in Toyota's safety standards, didn't activate during the accident. The car is in pristine condition with no history of accidents and all its parts are original. I have included some photos of the accident to provide a clearer understanding of the situation. Imagine the emotions that would arise if you or someone dear to you found themselves in such a predicament. My 10 and 16-year-old daughters continue to experience fear when it comes to riding in the car, and unfortunately, their psychological well-being has not shown any signs of improvement. My wife is still in the process of recovering. We were deeply troubled and let down. The airbag replacement performed in European countries was not implemented in Turkey. Even after sending multiple emails, I did not receive any response. I had no other option but to pursue legal recourse. Anyone thinking about purchasing Toyota vehicles should take this situation into account. Despite the advertisements boasting about the presence of 10 airbags, none of them were activated during the accident.
My Toyota Corolla 2018 model vehicle did not deploy the airbag even though I had a bad accident. Despite the severity of the collision, none of the airbags activated, leaving us completely unprotected. The Toyota brand, which we love and use as a family, caused great disappointment and victimization...
The airbags did not activate after the collision I had with my brand new Toyota Corolla (the vehicle hit the center median, turned over to the other lane, and was totaled). According to the Toyota call center, the car that turned over had four airbags (2 front + two side); as a result of the assessm...

My Toyota Corolla was involved in a significant accident, yet none of the airbags deployed despite the severe impact. The car sustained extensive damage, yet the airbags remained intact, which raises serious safety concerns. Toyota previously called me into the service center twice for free airbag ...
I purchased my Toyota Corolla Cross at the end of December 2022. On the morning of May 12, 2025, the vehicle suddenly wouldn’t start. The authorized Toyota service center informed me that the battery was completely discharged. However, they told me the system didn’t allow them to replace it, so they...
