Showing 401–418 of 418 recalls.
POSSIBLE MALFUNCTION OF CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG
The crimping connector of the inflator cartridge may be incorrectly assembled with the curtain airbag on certain vehicles. In the event of airbag activation full deployment of the curtain shield cannot be guaranteed due to this condition.
Replace the curtain shield airbag.
POSSIBLE FUEL LEAK
The fuel injection system pulsation damper may have been damaged during manufacture. As a consequence it may leak and cause a fire hazard in the presence of a heat or ignition source.
Fit a modified pulsation damper.
POSSIBLE FUEL SPILLAGE WHEN PETROL CAP IS OPENED
The check valve in the fuel tank inlet that prevents reverse fuel flow is incorrectly fitted on some vehicles . This could cause fuel to spill out when the cap is opened if there is high internal pressure in the fuel tank.
Correctly fit the check valve or if necessary replace the fuel tank and check valve.
PASSENGER FRONT AIR BAG CONCERN
The front passenger airbag inflator module check valve pin is missing in the affected vehicle. In the event of airbag activation the partition which separates the inflator and the bag may not be properly broken resulting in insufficient pressure to properly deploy the airbag. This could result in injury to the front seat passenger in the event of a frontal impact.
Replace the inflator module.
TWO GEARS MAY BE SELECTED AT THE SAME TIME
Transmission output shaft critical dimension may be shorter than the specification. In the worst case this could result in two gears being selected at the same time and cause the gearbox to lock up.
Check transmission serial number and replace any gearbox found to be within the affected range.
TWO GEARS MAY BE SELECTED AT THE SAME TIME
Transmission output shaft critical dimension may be shorter than the specification. In the worst case this could result in two gears being selected at the same time and cause the gearbox to lock up.
Check transmission serial number and replace any gearbox found to be within the affected range.
REAR BRAKE PIPE CONCERN
In frequent stop/start conditions in snow and severely cold weather compacted snow/ice may build up on the inner face of the wheel disc. In extreme circumstances the snow/ice may strike and distort the metal pipe that connects to the rear brake cylinder. Impaired braking and a hydraulic fluid leak may result.
Fit a modified and re-routed brake pipe.

Fit a modified and re-routed brake pipe.
CAR SPOILER MAY BECOME DETACHED
There is a possibility that the car spoiler may become loose or detached.
Recall affected vehicles to revise spoiler fixing method to bolts.
FRONT PASSENGER SWIVEL SEAT AND SEAT BELT ANCHORAGE CONCERN
The front passenger seat belt stalk is secured to the seat frame. During a vehicle impact the seat structure became distorted.
Recall affected motor homes and attach the seat belt anchorage brackets to the vehicle manufacturers original locations in the vehicle structure.
POSSIBILITY OF FUEL LEAK
There is a possibility that excessive residual stress remains on the check valve of the fuel pump during the assembly process. If the vehicle is driven with the residual stress the check valve may leak fuel.
Recall affected vehicles to re-tighten the fuel pump check valve and replace the relevant fuel pipe to protect against stress fracture.
BRAKE PEDAL STROKE MAY INCREASE
Certain brake master cylinder reservoir cap air vents are blocked. If the vehicle is driven in this condition for long term a vacuum is created in the reservoir tank as brake pads wear. There is a possibility that this vacuum may cause the brake pedal stroke to increase.
Recall affected vehicles and replace reservoir cap if faulty.
REAR BRAKE AND HUB SECURITY CONCERN
It is possible for the bolts to be loose that join the rear brake and hub assembly to the rear axle carrier due to insufficient tightening. 1 or more of the 4 bolts could come loose causing an abnormal noise from the rear wheel axle area. In the event that all 4 bolts loosen completely separation of the rear brake and hub assembly from the rear axle carrier may occur which in the worst case could lead to a loss of vehicle control.
Recall affected vehicles and check the rear brake and hub securing bolts for correct tightness.
REAR WHEELS MAY LOCK UNDER HARD BRAKING
There is a possibility that under certain conditions when applying the brakes hard and suddenly as in a panic situation a locking of the rear wheels may occur. The vehicle handling will then become unstable.
Recall affected vehicles and replace brake proportioning valve with a modified type.
POSSIBLE NON-OPERATION OF STOP LIGHTS
Surplus grease applied to the stop light switch during production may carbonise and result in the stop lights not illuminating when the footbrake is applied.
The affected vehicles are being recalled for inspection and if required replacement of the stop light switch.
LOSS OF BRAKING SYSTEM VACUUM ASSISTANCE
The rotor blades in the brake vacuum pump may have a rough surface and be subject to wear. In the worst case the blades may break causing loss of brake vacuum assistance and resulting in increased stopping distances.
The affected vehicles are being recalled to Toyota Dealers for replacement of the vacuum pump blades and rotor.
SECURITY OF ROOF RACK
Under certain loading conditions or as a result of incorrect installation the roof rack may become loose and fall from the vehicle.
Owners who have purchased the subject roof racks are being contacted by Toyota dealers and requested to take the vehicles back for the fitment of improved clamps to the roof rack system.
POSSIBLE LOSS OF WINDSCREEN WIPER ACTION.
The windscreen wiper motor and passenger side wiper arm may be of insufficient strength and could fail under extreme operating conditions with loss of wiper action.
Recall the affected vehicles for replacement of the wiper motor and passenger side wiper arm with modified components.
