Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Toyota is recalling certain 2003-2004 model year Corolla, Corolla Matrix, and Avalon vehicles, as well as 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe vehicles, due to a defect in the air bag control module. An electrical noise issue may cause a component in this module to fail, which could result in unintended deployment of the front air bags, side air bags, and/or seat belt pretensioners while the vehicle is in operation, increasing the risk of injury or crashes.
Toyota will notify owners of affected vehicles and dealers will replace the air bag control module at no charge. Toyota owners should contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331, and Pontiac Vibe owners should call 1-800-620-7668. The recall began on August 24, 2015.
