• Recall 2016051 [Canada]: Airbag
  On certain vehicles, the roll rate sensors in the airbag control module may improperly calibrate if the vehicle experiences a body roll motion approximately four seconds after the ignition is turned to the ‘on’ position. If the vehicle experiences another subsequent body roll motion, the system may erroneously detect a rollover, causing both of the side curtain airbags to deploy and the seat belt pre-tensioners to be activated. Unintended airbag and/or seat belt pre-tensioner deployment, in a non-warranted (non-impact) situation, could result in injury and increase the risk of a vehicle crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: dealers will replace the airbag control module with one which has improved programming.

I have an 2006 lexus gx470 and these lights came on: abs, vsc trac, vsc off, skid, and check engine. The vehicle started making a humming noise at start up and now drives in stalled mode. Had codes check and it turns out i have the dreaded secondary air injection system (emissions) defect P0412, P0418 ,P1440/P1443, P1441/P1444, P2440, P2445, P1442/P1145 , which is a recurring problem. Replacement is a nightmare for self repair or a $2000+ repair.

The whole dash is crack in more than 8 places.
