> [@vhooloo](#): > > Yes because Carmax/carfax/autocheck cannot determine if a Toyota vehicle has a takata airbag or not. It wasn’t a bogus airbag recall, it was a different bogus recall. I just looked at the Autocheck report, it’s recall J0V-9982, which appears to be this one: > **[Toyota Recalls More Than 800,000 Prius Vehicles In U.S.](https://www.npr.org/2018/10/05/654782186/toyota-says-it-s-recalling-more-than-800-000-prius-vehicles-in-u-s)** > > The recall addresses the way the cars respond if their hybrid systems run into problems. They're designed to enter a fail-safe or "limp home" driving mode, but in certain conditions they can stall. ---

This thread is woefully off track. If we can’t bring it back around, to the topic at hand - that is, AutoNation (and other dealers) selling cars with known recalls, this thread can have a timeout too. ---
