Transport Canada recall 2025242 · manufacturer campaign SRC RF2

6 May 2025

Transport Canada lists: Corolla 2023 · Highlander 2023 · Tacoma 2023

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the steering wheel spiral cable assembly could disconnect. If this happens, the airbag (SRS) warning lamp would turn on, and the driver-front airbag wouldn't work in a crash. This may also cause the horn or other steering wheel-mounted controls not to work properly. Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall no. 2023-386. Vehicles that were repaired under that recall don't require this repair.

Why it matters

An airbag that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Toyota will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the production date of the spiral cable assembly, and replace it if necessary.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the inspection completed by a Toyota dealer during recall SRC RF2 (Transport Canada recall no. 2023-386) may not have been done correctly. As a result, a second inspection is required. On certain vehicles, the steering wheel spiral cable assembly could disconnect. If this happens, the airbag (SRS) warning lamp would turn on, and the driver-front airbag wouldn't work in a crash. This may also cause the horn or other steering wheel-mounted controls not to work properly.

13 March 2024

Transport Canada lists: Tacoma 2023

What is wrong

On a small number of trucks, the information on the tire and loading information label may be incorrect. This could lead you to overload the vehicle, inflate the tires incorrectly, and/or use the wrong rims and tires. This could lead to poor handling and/or a tire failure.

Why it matters

Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Toyota will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the tire and loading information label.

Powertrain

Transport Canada recall 2024127 · manufacturer campaign SRC RG6

27 February 2024

Transport Canada lists: Tacoma 2022–2023

What is wrong

On certain trucks, the axle housing(s) may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the axle retaining nuts could loosen and detach. If this happens, the axle shaft(s) could separate from the axle housing(s). This could cause reduced braking and/or reduced vehicle stability. Note: This problem could cause noise, vibration and/or a differential oil leak.

Why it matters

Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances. Reduced vehicle stability could cause a loss of control. Both issues could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Toyota will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to inspect the rear axle assembly and retighten the axle retaining nuts. If weld spatter is found, it will be removed. Any damaged axle components will be repaired or replaced, as necessary.
