Stumbled across the article this morning. Not sure if it is just the UK cars or applies to all Yaris.

Most likely not any US cars; only refers to cars made in certain months in 2005 and 2006.

A mention of side airbags and a pic of a LB? Hmm...

If it is true for all Yarii, then mine would be affected by the recall. Made in June '06, turning one next month!

Bought mine at the end of August 2006. Hmmm...

More than likely not you...or me for that matter. I don't believe the US spec liftbacks have side curtain airbags. Just driver and passenger.

Wrong. I have the side curtain airbags. $650 option. :smile:

dont worry, you'll get a letter in the mail notifying you if the recall affects you. happened to a 4-runner the family previously had, regarding a steering rod. in the meantime, dont get in a side collision.

I have noticed that on my driver's side "pillar" that the windshield glass is attached to, the plastic cover over the side airbags is popping up a little bit. Mine is a US LB though made in '06.
