The Trouble With Toyota Recalls

Timeline of Related News

Some Toyota hybrid sedans have fuel filler pipes that were never reconnected to the gas tank during assembly. Does that make them fuel spiller pipes? (Hold for applause). A small number of 2019 Avalon Hybrid and Camry Hybrid sedans will be recalled to have those pipes inspected and possibly replaced.

It’s
pretty rare for a car that’s less than a year old to need a new transmission, and yet … here we are. Toyota has recalled the 2019 Corolla Hatchback because at least 3,400 of them have CVTs that are expected to fail.

The c
urtain shield airbags in your car have two chambers that are welded together. That weld keeps those chambers hugging and happy. The only problem is, someone did a really bad job welding 1.4 million Toyota vehicles worldwide.

Most
modern vehicles have an occupant classification system (OCS) that monitors the weight of the passenger in the front seat and decides whether or not to deploy the airbag during an accident. Well, turns out the OCS in some Prius v vehicles might be DOA. That's no LOL matter. OK, I'm done with the acronyms. Here's what you need to know about the recall:

The problem: Toyota says the rear suspension leaf springs can corrode and break down over time. Once broken, those sharp edges can wreak havoc on the brake lines or rupture the gas tank. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that flammable liquid and sparks don't mix well. Toyota received its first complaint about the problem in 2009.

The problem: Toyota hasn't said much about the problem other than it involves a bad weld in the engine compartment which they blame on a third-party supplier. Pointing fingers is very unbecoming, Toyota. The automaker said the weld can fail on the "end cap of the right-hand fuel delivery pipe" allowing gas to leak.

if your vehicle was recalled last year but did not receive a replacement part, you're going to need to bring it back in to be checked against the new -- and hopefully complete -- list.

exact same thing in 2010. During that recall Toyota replaced the splash guard and added an anti-rusting agent to prevent corrosion -- how'd that work out? Let's hope they have a better solution in mind this time. May I suggest a splash guard that doesn't fall off as a good place to start.

Seatb
elts are a simple yet effective way to protect you in a crash. But in the 2014 Highlander the middle seat belt of the third row might fail when you need it most, prompting a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says that particular seat belt might not have been secured properly. If the belt isn't secured properly it's pretty obvious you won't be either.
