Transport Canada recalls
02- Brakes#2022179
41,084 units affected
Issue: Under certain conditions, the vehicle stability control (VSC) system may not switch on when the ignition is restarted. This can happen if the driver manually turns off the VSC, depresses the brake pedal, and then turns off and restarts the vehicle while continuously depressing the brake pedal. Canadian regulations require the stability control system to be active each time that you start the vehicle. Safety Risk: A stability control system that is switched off could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to update the skid control ECU software.
- Lights And Instruments#2022021
3,166 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the rear turn signal bulbs could short circuit. If this happens, the turn signals and hazard lights may dim or may not work properly. Note: This problem can cause the turn signal indicator on the instrument panel to flash quickly. Safety Risk: Turn signals that do not work properly could cause a following driver not to recognize that a vehicle ahead intends to turn. Hazard lights that do not work properly could make the vehicle less visible. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealer to replace both rear turn signal bulbs. The dealer will also replace the rear turn signal lamp assemblies, if necessary.
