I started the car and noticed that it smelled strange. I put it into reverse and started to back up when the passenger side airbag deployed, spiderwebbing the windshield and filling the cabin with a smoke that smelled intensely of the bad smell from before. There was no collision nor even contact with any thing else by the vehicle.
Driver's side airbag didn't deploy during frontal impact, driver sustained jaw bone fracture.

Second row passenger shoulder/lap belt release button buckle loosened and fell apart, occupants rode unrestrained.
Seat belt buckle release button casing fell apart.
Rear seat belt retracted caused child to be unconscious and capillaries broken in neck and face. Father cut child loose with scissors.tt
Rear lap belt isn't working due to the casing within the seat belt cracking, and the seat belt is catching in the crack, and won't come out.
(1) events leading up to the failure:while driving vehicle and approaching intersection. Light turns yellow and driver decided to stop for the red light. Stop was from somewhere around 30 mph over maybe 100 feet. (figures are just for reference)(2)failure and its consequences:female, receptacle for seat belt somehow broke and split its casing to release the strap. Resulting in the 6 year old in booster seat flying from back seat into front passenger seat and starts crying, scared but receiving only a bump on his head.(3) what was done to correct the failure:had the seat belt looked at by royal moore toyota in hillsborro, or. They said they had never seen that happen before and that would be $180 to replace. I did not replace the seatbelt->receptacle yet and still have the broken part.
All off the rear bench seatbelts are unsafe to hold a rear facing child seat. Please describe.tt

This failure resulted in serious injury - portion of the right thumb severed
While driving cruise control went out, and could have lost steering control which could havecaused an accident. Cause unknown. Dealer notified.
Accelerator sticks, making it very difficult to accelerate gradually. When this occurs you must push down on the accelerator very hard. This leads to the car abruptly lunging forward, making it very difficult to drive in bumper to bumper traffic or tight spaces. This problem was identified within the first 8 months. The problem was corrected, however its occurring again. I think this should be a recall item on this vehicle.
