USA RECALL - TOYOTA - The brand is recalling 73,000 Tundra models from 2016-2017.

Toyota Motor North America, Inc, Announced that it is conducting a safety recall of approximately 73,000 Model Year, 2016 and 2017 Toyota Tundra vehicles in the U.S.

The involved vehicles are equipped with resin rear step bumpers and resin reinforcement brackets at each corner.  In the event of an impact to the corner of the bumper, the resin bracket may become damaged but not be noticed.  If a person steps on the corner of the bumper that is damaged, a portion of it may break away, increasing the risk of injury.

Toyota dealers will replace the resin reinforcement brackets with new ones that are made of steel at no cost to customers.  In addition, the rear bumper tread covers will be replaced as part of the remedy.

All known owners of the involved vehicles will receive a notification by first class mail starting in the middle of February.

USA RECALL 2 - Toyota expands the Takata airbag failures by another 540,000 Units

Toyota Motor North America, Inc. today announced that, based on recent information from Takata as required by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, it is expanding its recall involving Takata front passenger air bag inflators.

This expansion involves approximately 543,000 additional vehicles in the U.S.  The following models are included:

• 2007 – 2009 and 2012 Model Year Lexus ES350
• 2012 Model Year Lexus GX460
• 2012 Model Year Lexus LFA 

All known owners of the involved Toyota, Scion, and Lexus vehicles will be notified by first class mail starting in February.  Depending on the vehicle model, dealers will replace either the front passenger air bag inflator or air bag assembly at no cost.
