What Happened?
Toyota was sued after it was discovered that certain vehicles were equipped with defective airbag control units that could fail to deploy properly during a collision — similar to the issue affecting Hyundai and Kia vehicles. The defect involves the same category of safety-critical electronic component responsible for detecting collisions and triggering airbag deployment.
Toyota agreed to pay $78.5 million to settle the class action brought by owners and lessees of affected vehicles.
How Much Will I Actually Get?
Compensation varies based on the vehicle model and whether you experienced an airbag-related incident. Vehicle ownership documentation is required. Check the official settlement website for the full list of qualifying vehicle models. Deadline is December 16, 2026.
