"Toyota is issuing an immediate DO NOT DRIVE advisory," Toyota states. "Certain airbags found in the subject vehicles are under an URGENT airbag safety recall. Due to the age of the vehicles, if the airbag deploys, a part inside is more likely to explode and shoot sharp metal fragments which could cause SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH to the driver or passengers. Owners SHOULD NOT DRIVE these vehicles until the FREE safety recall repair has been conducted."

Certain model year 2003-2004 Corolla, 2003-2004 Corolla Matrix, and model year 2004-2005 RAV4 vehicles are involved in this recall. The company is urging owners to contact their local dealer instead of driving their vehicles to be repaired.

"Toyota will repair or replace the airbag for FREE. Toyota is notifying known owners of these vehicles every month through a variety of communication channels. To see if your vehicle is involved in a safety recall visit Toyota.com/recall or nhtsa.gov/recalls and enter your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) or license plate information," Toyota added.

These inflators are two decades old now, and they pose a 50% chance of rupturing in even a minor crash. Don’t gamble with your life or the life of someone you love – schedule your free repair today before it’s too late,” NHTSA Acting Administrator Ann Carlson. said.

Officials say that unrepaired Takata airbags have an increased risk of exploding.
At least 27 people in the U.S. were killed by a defective Takata airbag that exploded, according to the NHTSA. At least 500 people were injured by exploding Takata airbag inflators.
"Even minor crashes can result in exploding Takata airbags that can kill or produce life-altering, gruesome injuries," the NHTSA said. "Older model year vehicles put their occupants at higher risk, as the age of the airbag is one of the contributing factors."

5 Things You Must Do Before Entering a Car Dealership in 2024
What You Want Vs. What You NEED. The good news is, if you do your research ahead of time, you may be able to find a vehicle that makes sense both for your budget and your sense of style. And if we're honest, even if we buy that one specific car we've zeroed in on, we know that in a few months, we'll see another one that takes our breath away.
At the same time, we'll still be making those monthly payments on the one we have. Make sure it makes sense for the way you and your family live--and what you can afford.

Spruce Up Your Negotiating Skills. This is a good idea no matter what. Here's the thing: From the car dealers I've known, there's always some wiggling room on the price and to be honest, dealers EXPECT you to haggle a little bit at least.
I know it can be more uncomfortable for some of us than others. But brushing up this skill will make a huge difference.

Do a Little Market Research. Look, I get it. It's so easy to see a car on the road and fall in absolute love with how it looks.
But just like it's best not to judge a book by its cover, when it comes to buying a car, it's a good idea to check other factors, like gas mileage, maintenance costs, and reliability.

Take a Closer Look at ALL of Your Financing Options. Sure, car dealerships usually offer in-house financing--which is great. At the same time, you may be able to get a better deal at your bank or credit union. Explore your options.
As Greg Garrison of GoBankingRates puts it, "Being pre-approved for a loan not only gives you an advantage in negotiations but also sets a clear budget for your purchase."

Get Honest About Your Budget. Yeah, that. I know so many people who have over-extended and get upside down in a vehicle and regret it deeply later after the 'new' wears off.
We want a car that we will love to drive. But buying more car than you can reasonably afford will lead to stress and possibly regret down the road--no pun intended.
