Defect:
Southeast toyota is recalling certain model year 2008 and 2010-2013 toyota tundra, 2010-2012 rav4, 2012 toyota sequoia, 2010-2011 toyota corolla, 2010-2011 toyota camry and camry hybrid, 2010-2013 toyota highlander and highlander hybrid, 2010-2013 toyota fj cruiser, 2011 toyota land cruiser, 2010-2013 toyota venza, 2010-2011 toyota 4runner, 2010-2013 toyota tacoma, 2011-2012 toyota sienna, 2012 toyota prius, 2013 scion fr-s, 2011 scion xd, 2011 scion xb, and 2012 scion tc vehicles. these vehicles were sold with labels that were outside the allowable one percent of accuracy of actual weight added. thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 110, "tire selection and rims."
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.
Notes:
Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Component:
Tires:temporary/emergency spare tire
Affected:
979
Defect:
Southeast toyota distributors, llc (set) is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 tacoma vehicles equipped with 18" maverick alloy wheels. in the affected vehicles, the spare tire requires the use of a different style of lug nut to attach it to the vehicle than the other wheels use. these lug nuts were not provided with the vehicle.
Consequence:
If the spare tire/wheel is installed on the vehicle using the lug nuts from another wheel, damage to the wheel could result and may eventually lead to a loose wheel, increasing the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Set will notify owners, and dealers will: (a) install a warning label on the spare tire/wheel, (b) supply a bag containing proper spare wheel lug nuts, and (c) place an owner's manual addendum in the vehicle's glove box. the recall began on january 23, 2014. owners may contact set at 1-954-429-2000.

Toyota is recalling certain model year 2012 and 2013 toyota tacoma and lexus rx350 vehicles and certain model year 2012 toyota rav4 vehicles. in the affected vehicles, the brake system contains a brake actuator that adjusts the fluid pressure of each wheel cylinder. an electrical component within the actuator may experience an increased resistance resulting in the illumination of various warning lights, including those for the vehicle stability control (vsc) system, antilock brake system (abs), and traction control system.
Consequence:
If this occurs, these systems could become inoperative, reducing the directional control assistance, increasing the risk of a crash.
