2007 Toyota Yaris Liftback 2-DR Safety Features

Here are the safety features that come as standard on the 2007 Toyota Yaris Liftback 2-DR

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

ESC is an advanced safety feature in vehicles designed to help drivers maintain control during challenging driving conditions. By continuously monitoring various factors such as steering angle, vehicle speed, and individual wheel speeds, ESC can detect and reduce the risk of skidding or loss of control. It achieves this by automatically applying brakes to specific wheels to stabilize the vehicle.

No
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is a safety feature in vehicles that helps prevent frontal collisions by alerting the driver of an imminent collision with a vehicle or obstacle ahead. Using sensors such as radar or cameras, FCW monitors the distance and speed of vehicles in front, and if it detects a potential collision, it provides visual and/or auditory warnings to prompt the driver to take evasive action.

No
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) is a safety feature in vehicles that alerts drivers when their vehicle unintentionally drifts out of its lane without signaling. Utilizing cameras or sensors to monitor lane markings on the road, LDW detects when the vehicle crosses these lines and triggers visual, auditory, or haptic alerts to notify the driver of potential lane departure.

Components Involved: AIR BAGS
Date of incident: 2017-11-05
Complaint:
"takata recall the recall was issued on 5/23/16. today is 9/19/17 and the recall is still incomplete. they have failed to provide a solution to this issue in a timely manner. sixteen months is a long time to wait...especially when every time you ride as a passenger you run the risk of being severely injured or killed by the defect. we make sure that our children ride in the back, but if the airbag was to deploy and send metal shrapnel flying though the front seat, there is a chance that they could still be injured or killed. this is completely unacceptable. this is our daily form of transportation. i would rather have no airbag than to run the risk of myself, my children or my husband being impaled by metal shrapnel. this needs to be fixed...immediately."
