What to do

Dealers will inspect and replace both front driveshaft assemblies as necessary, free of charge. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed November 14, 2025. Additional letters will be sent once the final remedy is available, anticipated within June 2026. Owners may contact Toyota's customer service at 1-800-331-4331.
