In the event of a crash, the airbags may not deploy and will not be able to properly protect an occupant, increasing the risk of injuries.
Correction:
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will check the vehicle identification number to identify the curtain shield assemblies and replace the assemblies as necessary with new ones free of charge. the safety recall began on march 8, 2012. owners may contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331.

Toyota is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2011 rav4 and 2010 lexus hs250h passenger vehicles manufactured from october 2005 through september 2010. if the nuts for adjusting the rear wheel alignment are improperly tightened during service, the rear suspension arm (rear tie rod) may develop unwanted movement and rust, leading to thread damage and eventual failure. failure of the rear tie rod will cause an abrupt change in the vehicle's alignment.
Consequence:
Failure of the rear tie rod could cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the rear tie-rod nut for looseness and replace any suspect tie-rod found loose. dealers will also affix instructions in multiple places to prevent improper servicing in the future. the recall began on november 30, 2012. owners may contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331 or lexus at 1-800-255-3987.

Southeast toyota distributors, llc (set) is recalling certain models interspersed through model years 2009 through 2013 as follows: model year 2009-2012 tacoma, 4runner, camry, camry hybrid, prius, and rav4; model year 2009-2010 avalon, fj cruiser, and highlander hybrid; model year 2010-2013 model year corolla, sienna and tundra; model year 2009-2013 highlander and venza; model year 2012 prius v; and model year 2010-2012 sequoia. during modification by set to include accessories such as leather seat covers, seat heaters or headrest dvd systems, these vehicles may not have had the passenger seat occupant sensing system calibration tested. without passing the calibration test, the occupant sensing system may not operate as designed.
Consequence:
If the front passenger seat occupant sensing system is out of calibration, the front passenger airbags may not deploy or they may deploy inappropriately for the passenger's size and position. this could increase the risk of personal injury during the event of a vehicle crash necessitating airbag deployment.
Correction:
Southeast toyota will notify owners, and dealers will test the sensitivity of the occupant detection sensors, and recalibrate them as necessary. the recall began on march 21, 2013. owners may contact southeast toyota at 1-800-301-6859.

Consequence:
An inaccurate label could lead to owners overloading their vehicles and tires. an overloaded vehicle can result in a tire failure which may result in a vehicle crash, personal injury, or property damage.
Correction:
Southeast toyota will notify owners and provide a corrected label with instructions concerning its installation. a small group of the affected vehicles will need additonal remedies which are still being developed. the recall began on may 28, 2013. owners may contact southeast toyota at 1-800-301-6859.

Consequence:
Failure of the rear tie rod could cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the tie rods and replace any that have rust or corrosion on the alignment adjustment threads. all of the rear tie rods will then be encased in an epoxy to prevent future environmental damage. due to limitations in parts, the recall remedy will be launched in phases from september 2013 through mid-april 2014. all owners will receive notification of the recall, with most receiving second notifications when parts are available in their area. important: this recall supersedes toyota and lexus recall 12v-373. all vehicles that have been inspected and remedied under the previous recall need to be re-inspected and have the appropriate remedy applied.

Defect:
Toyota motor engineering & manufacturing (toyota) is recalling certain model year 2009-2012 rav4 vehicles manufactured october 27, 2008, to december 19, 2012 and 2012-2014 rav4 ev vehicles manufactured july 24, 2012, to august 29, 2014. in the affected vehicles, water may drip onto the joint that connects the wiper linkage to the wiper motor.
Consequence:

Correction:
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will replace the water diverter channel. in addition, a new wiper linkage with a wiper motor crank arm will be installed. the wiper linkage will have a protective cover over the wiper linkage joint to minimize water splash and a retainer ring to prevent the wiper arm from separating from the wiper motor. the recall began on november 7, 2016. owners may contact toyota's customer service number at 1-800-331-4331.
