Recently, Toyota Motor announced that due to the safety hazard of some vehicle airbags, according to the requirements of China's "Regulations on the Management of Defective Automobile Products Recall", the recall plan has been filed with the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, and it is decided to recall 61459 from May 8, 2014. The car involves two models, Reiz and Highlander. Stop Valves are closed by screwing a rubber gasket down onto a seat in the middle of the valve. Pros only use small versions that act as shutoff Valves for fixtures such as sinks and toilets and outdoor sillcocks. Flow is inefficient because of the circuitous route the fluid (water, in most cases) has to follow. It's important to orient the valve in the right direction with the arrow (cast into the side of the valve) aligned with flow direction. That way, water flows against the bottom of the rubber gasket. If the valve is put in backward, the flow will force the gasket away from the top of the valve.

A total of 71 vehicles.
Some vehicles in the scope of this recall have friction with the end of the airbag in the spiral coil assembly. The continued use of the airbag will cause the airbag cable to wear or even break. After the cable breaks, the airbag warning light will light up. The driver's seat air bag is invalid, and there is a safety hazard.
Toyota Motor said that it will contact the owners of the recalled area through the special dealers to replace the improved spiral coil assembly for free in the recall range to eliminate safety hazards.
