SS004-07 Title: SRS COMPONENT DISPOSAL AS HAZARDOUS MATERIAL TREATMENT August 6, 2007 Introduction Some hazardous material treatment and handling regulations at the state and local level now define the pre-disposal deployment of airbag and pre-tensioner assemblies as hazardous material treatment. Hazardous material treatment may require special training, certification or licensing in certain areas. TMS recommends dealership personnel carefully review and follow all local and state regulations and, where necessary, contract with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Licensed Hazardous Waste Transportation and Disposal facilities. TMS no longer recommends the manual deployment of SRS components as a general practice method of disposal. Employment of an EPA Licensed Hazardous Waste Transportation and Disposal contractor is encouraged. Reasons for the change in practice: ^ Previously, deployed SRS components were considered to be non-hazardous waste and airbag deployment was an acceptable practice when performed safely by properly equipped service facilities. ^ The EPA has deferred the responsibility of determining if airbags, deployed or un-deployed, constitute hazardous waste to the discretion of each state. ^ Within the past several years, a number of states have ruled the deployment of airbags to be considered treatment of hazardous waste, requiring practicing dealerships to obtain a HAZMAT treatment facility permit. ^ Airbag disposal practices and protocols vary from state to state and are continuously evolving. For information on local regulations, contacts for EPA Licensed Hazardous Waste Transportation and Disposal providers, an up-to-date list of states that require waste treatment permits" for SRS component deployment, as well as more information about airbag recycling opportunities, please consult the Environmental Assistance Network (EAN). website http:wwww.ccar-greenlink.org/tms and enter the keywords "airbag disposal". Applicable Vehicles ^ 1998 - 2008 model year Toyota vehicles equipped with SRS. Warranty Information Repair Manual Changes Toyota service publications explain in detail the procedures for pre-disposal deployment of airbag and pre-tensioner assemblies. These practices should ONLY be used by EPA Licensed Hazardous Waste Transportation and Disposal facilities or dealership technicians IF allowable by local/state regulation. All future service publications will include additional cautions advising dealership associates to review and abide by all applicable regulations prior to performing any pre-disposal deployment or disposal activity. Special Service Tools Special Service Tools (SSTs) for airbag and pre-tensioner deployment are no longer classified as essential SSTs. These tools will continue to be available through the SST program for dealerships choosing to continue airbag deployment in compliance with state and local governance. Refer to the following table for a list of current pre-disposal deployment SSTs and applications. |

All previous versions of this TSB should be discarded. Introduction This bulletin contains general vehicle pulling diagnosis and repair procedures along with specific information to help correct pulling complaints. This information supplements Repair Manual procedures when the symptoms are: ^ The driver holds the steering wheel without exerting steering effort while driving straight ahead, the vehicle drifts to the right or the left. ^ While driving straight ahead, the driver has to steer either to the right or the left to maintain straight driving. Applicable Vehicles ^ 2002 - 2007 model year Toyota vehicles. Warranty Information Applicable Warranty*: This repair is covered under the Toyota Comprehensive Warranty. This warranty is in effect for 12 months or 20,000 miles, whichever occurs first, from the vehicle's in-service date. * Warranty application is limited to correction of a problem based upon a customer's specific complaint. Contents This bulletin is divided into the following sections: Wheel Alignment and Tire Characteristics Repair Procedure Flow Chart Repair Procedures 1. Important Notice 2. Troubleshooting 3. Vehicle Pulling Caused by Wheel Alignment 4. Vehicle Pulling Caused by Tire Conicity 5. Camber Adjustment Method Wheel Alignment & Tire Characteristics 1. Relationship Between Wheel Alignment and Vehicle Pulling to One Side When the cross camber or caster of the front wheel alignment is large, it can cause vehicle pulling. If the cross camber or caster is within the specified range (30' or less), noticeable vehicle pulling will not occur due to side-to-side differences in camber or caster. NOTE:On a flat road, if the cross camber or caster is 30' or less and the steering wheel is held without exerting steering effort for 100 m (109 yards) when driving at 100 km/h (62 mph), the alignment-induced drift distance is approximately 0.5 m (1.64ft). 2. Relationship Between Tire Characteristics and Vehicle Pulling to One Side When radial tires are rotating, they have the characteristic of generating force in the lateral direction between the tire and the road surface. This lateral force is comprised of two factors: ^ Ply-steer, which changes direction according to the rotation direction of the tires. ^ Conicity, which is generated in a fixed direction regardless of the tire rotation direction. If these lateral forces are too strong, vehicle pulling will occur. A. Ply-Steer Lateral force due to ply-steer is produced by the construction of the belts inside the tire tread. With radial tires, the wire of the belt is slanted as shown in the illustration below. Thus, it is in the lateral direction that tire tread easily changes shape (stretches), and lateral force is generated between the tire and the road surface in the lateral direction. B. Conicity Conicity is lateral force resulting from uneven formation of the left and right sides of the tire. The direction the lateral force is exerted depends on the hardness of the side walls and the difference in height between the left/right sides of the tire. NOTE : ^ In the case of vehicle pulling caused by tires, the lateral force which is exerted as a result of conicity has the greatest effect. On a flat road, if the steering wheel is held without exerting steering effort for 100 m (109 yards) when travelling at 100 km/h (62 mph), the vehicle may drift as much as 1.5 m (5ft). ^ When vehicle pulling is due to conicity, the amount of drift can be reduced and the direction of drift can be changed by changing the location of the tire or reversing the tire when installing it on the wheel. Repair Procedure Flow Chart Repair Procedures 1. IMPORTANT NOTICE Before repairing vehicle pulling to one side, it is necessary to clearly identify the cause of the pulling condition. Frequently, the cause of the vehicle pulling to one side is diagnosed as wheel alignment. However, the actual cause may be lateral force generated by the tires. Performing wheel alignment when tire force is the cause could result in the wheel alignment being set at a value outside of specifications. This would then cause other problems such as uneven tire wear, etc. 2. Troubleshooting First determine whether vehicle pulling to one side is caused by a wheel alignment problem or tire characteristics, then decide which repairs to make. A. Perform the following checks and correct as necessary. a. Check tires for size, wear and for proper inflation pressure. b. Check whether the vehicle is noticeably tilted backward/forward or left/right. NOTE :Tilting of the vehicle produces a left-right difference in the camber and caster and can cause vehicle pulling to one side. c. Check brakes for dragging. B. Confirm problem symptoms. With the customer accompanying you, drive the vehicle to confirm if the customer's complaint involves vehicle pulling to one side or steering wheel off center. If the problem is steering wheel off center, adjust the front tie rods on the vehicle. Refer to Toyota TSB ST003-O1. Also check the direction of vehicle pulling and the extent of the pulling. C. Decide if vehicle pulling is due to wheel alignment or tires. a. Switch the left and right front tires (If the tires are non-unidirectional). b. Conduct a drive test to check whether the direction that the vehicle pulls has changed. Helpful hints to determine cause of vehicle pulling: ^ The direction of lateral force from tire conicity becomes reversed when the left and right tires are switched. Therefore, if the pulling direction changes when the tires are switched, it can be concluded that vehicle pulling is caused by tire conicity. ^ If the pulling direction does not change after the front tires are switched, the cause of vehicle pulling is not tire conicity. In this case, the likely cause is a front wheel alignment condition. 3. Vehicle Pulling Caused by Wheel Alignment When it is determined by troubleshooting that the vehicle pulling to one side is caused by wheel alignment, perform repairs according to the following procedure. NOTE : ^ Keep the cross camber within 10 or less. ^ Keep the camber of each wheel within specifications (+/- 45' of center value). ^ If adjustment exceeds the specifications, uneven tire wear will result. 4. Vehicle Pulling Caused by Tire Conicity When it is determined by troubleshooting that the vehicle pulling to one side is caused by tire conicity, perform repairs according to the following procedures. Indication of Tire Conicity as a Cause: When the front tires are switched, the pulling direction changes. Proceed to STEP 1. STEP 1: Remove the front left tire from the wheel and reverse the tire. Then perform a road test and check for change in the pulling direction. HINT: By performing this operation, it can be checked whether the left or right tire exerts a stronger lateral force. Either tire can be reversed. Shown here is an example of the left tire reversed. If Vehicle Pull Is Eliminated: Repair Is Now Complete. The lateral force generated by the left and right front tires is virtually the same, so the lateral force is neutralized and the vehicle travels straight ahead. The repair operation is now completed. STEP 2: Rotate the larger lateral force front tire with the rear tire and check the change in the vehicle pulling. NOTE :By shifting the front tire with the larger lateral force to the rear, the vehicle pulling level is usually reduced. If Vehicle Is Still Pulling: Go to STEP 3. If Vehicle Pull Is Eliminated: Repair Is Now Complete. STEP 3: Adjust cross camber to eliminate vehicle pulling. HINT: If the tires are placed in the positions they were in during tire rotation when the least amount of vehicle pulling occurred, wheel alignment can be performed with a minimal amount of adjustment. NOTE : ^ Keep the cross camber within 10 or less. ^ Keep the camber of each wheel within specifications (+1-45' of center value). ^ If adjustment exceeds the specifications, uneven tire wear will result. 5. Camber Adjustment Method NOTE :After the camber has been adjusted, inspect the toe-in. NOTE :The method of camber adjustment differs for different models, so please refer to the repair manual of the vehicle involved. (This is a sample from the Sienna Repair Manual). A. Remove the front wheels and ABS speed sensor clamp. B. Remove the two nuts on the lower side of the shock absorber. C. Coat the threads of the nuts with engine oil. D. Temporarily install the two nuts. E. Adjust the camber by pushing or pulling the lower side of the shock absorber in the direction in which the camber adjustment is required. F. Tighten the nuts. Torque: 210 N.m (2,150 kgf.cm, 155 ft.lbf) G. Install the front wheels. Torque: 104 N.m (1,050 kgf.cm, 77 ft.lbf) H. Check the camber. NOTE :Adjusting value for the set bolts is 6' - 30' (0.1°- 0.5°). When making an adjustment of more than 45', replace the upper and lower steering knuckle set bolts with the adjusting bolts. If the camber is NOT within the specification, use the table shown to estimate how much additional camber adjustment will be required, and select the appropriate camber adjusting bolt. I. Follow steps 5-a through 5-h again. Between steps 5-b and 5-c, exchange one or two selected bolts. HINT: When exchanging the two bolts, exchange one bolt each time. If Vehicle Pull Is Eliminated: Repair Is Now Complete. I If Vehicle Is Still Pulling: Contact Your Regional Office for Further Assistance. |

TITLE: PAINTLESS DENT REPAIR
SECTION: EXTERIOR BULLETIN # 146 MODELS: TOYOTA, SCION AND LEXUS DATE: SEPTEMBER 2006 Toyota has developed the following guidelines for the use of "Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) procedures on all Toyota, Scion and Lexus vehicles. PDR is used to reduce the cost of repairing minor dents and to avoid color match and refinish issues that may arise. Be sure to choose your PDR service provider carefully and always review their professional qualifications to ensure they are up to date on the latest PDR techniques and procedures. Repair Precautions ^ Always refer to the specific vehicle schematic (available from your PDR provider) for locations where PDR is possible. ^ Pay close attention to the locations of accessories and subassemblies that may utilize wire harnesses or drain hoses, etc. ^ PDR is often complicated by panel contour, placement of reinforcements, and location of electrical and mechanical components. ^ PDR Technicians should be aware of and take the necessary precautions to prevent damage to electrical and mechanical components while performing PDR repairs. General Repair Guidelines ^ The PDR process should only be considered when the exterior paint surface is not broken or cracked. A 30X power hand held microscope (available from most body shop jobbers) should be used to determine if the paint surface shows evidence of cracking. ^ Pushing and prying on the back side of body panels can disrupt the factory rust and corrosion protective coatings. PDR technicians must take steps to prevent corrosion coating damage or restore it with approved equivalent materials. PDR service companies performing PDR repairs should be knowledgeable and capable of restoring corrosion protective coatings damaged during PDR repairs. PLEASE ROUTE THIS BULLETIN TO YOUR COLLISION REPAIR CENTER MANAGER AND COLLISION REPAIR TECHNICIANS ^ Prying, pushing, or pulling on body panels may cause stretching beyond the flexible limits of the paint coatings causing delamination (paint coating separation) or micro-cracking. These conditions may not be immediately detectable (use a 30X magnifying hand-held microscope to inspect for cracks). Important :The PDR process uses special tools to access otherwise inaccessible areas. Drilling of holes, prying away or cutting reinforcements or welded structural components to gain access to perform a PDR is strictly prohibited and, if done, may void the manufacturer's corrosion protection warranty. ^ Using blocks or wedges between window moldings and door glass (for tool access) is also prohibited. This process can damage window moldings and reduce the factory designed-in pressure of the inner belt molding on the base of the door glass. ^ Window guard protectors must be used to protect window glass during PDR operations. Specific Repair Guidelines ^ Panels with multiple dents, including hail damage, may be considered for PDR as long as the original panel integrity (strength) is maintained. If a panel exhibits any evidence of loss of strength due to the number of dents, the panel should not be considered for PDR. If after performing a PDR repair the panel exhibits evidence of loss of strength, the panel must be repaired using conventional body shop processes. ^ Round/oval dents may be removed if they are 2 inches or more away from panel edges or body lines and are no larger than the diameter of a soft ball. ^ Creases that are up to 4 long may be considered for removal. Note: Sharp creases cannot be removed using PDR. ^ Dents or protrusions, of up to 6mm, from the reverse side, on hoods, trunks, fenders, and quarter panels may be considered, but extreme caution must be used during this type of repair due to the higher potential of damaging the paint surface. Remember no broken paint. |
