What the reviewed source says

Start with the documented condition, not a parts guess.

NHTSA campaign 18V887000 includes certain 2015 to 2019 Toyota Land Cruiser vehicles. Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2008-2019 Toyota Land Cruiser and Lexus LX 570 vehicles. Over time, the seat belt tension sensor wire harness may break and deactivate the front passenger air bag, knee air bag, and passenger seat-mounted side airbag. In the event of a crash, deactivated air bags can increase the risk of injury.
