2003 Toyota Sequoia Recalls

The 2003 Toyota Sequoia has 6 recalls, the most serious being a passenger-side front airbag inflator that can explode in a crash and send metal fragments into the cabin, potentially causing serious injury or death.

All four airbag recalls point to the same defect in the Takata-supplied passenger frontal airbag inflator. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the issue, which is why multiple campaigns exist for this vehicle. Some of these recalls specifically target vehicles originally sold or registered in high-humidity regions such as Florida, the Gulf Coast, Hawaii, and U.S. territories, where moisture accelerates the risk of inflator failure.

On the electronics side, the steering angle sensor may not store its center position correctly, which can confuse the traction and stability control systems. In most cases a warning light on the dashboard will signal the problem, but the vehicle may also accelerate more slowly than expected, which raises the risk of a crash in situations where the driver needs a quick response.
