Campaign:
15V013000 on 01/15/2015
Component:
Air bags
Manufactured:
11/06/2013 - 01/06/2015
Affected:
4,971
Defect:
Toyota motor engineering & manufacturing (toyota) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 toyota prius v vehicles manufactured november 7, 2013, to january 7, 2015. the occupant classification system (ocs) that activates or deactivates the passenger seat air bag system may be improperly calibrated. as a result, the passenger air bag may not deploy in a vehicle crash. as such, these vehicles fail to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) no. 208, "occupant crash protection."
Consequence:
If the air bag does not deploy as intended, there is an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Correction:
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will re-calibrate of the ocs system, free of charge. the recall began february 12, 2015. owners may contact toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331.
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.

Campaign:
15V449000 on 07/14/2015
Component:
Hybrid propulsion system: inverter
Manufactured:
08/21/2011 - 06/29/2014
Affected:
108,624
Defect:
Toyota motor engineering & manufacturing (toyota) is recalling certain model year 2012-2014 prius v vehicles manufactured august 22, 2011, to june 30, 2014. a component within the hybrid inverter assembly may overheat, causing the hybrid system to reduce output power allowing the vehicle to only drive a short distance. in some circumstances, the hybrid system may shut down causing the vehicle to stop while being driven.
Consequence:
The vehicle may enter a fail-safe/limp-home mode that limits the drivability of the vehicle. the hybrid system could also shut down completely resulting in a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the motor/generator control electronic control unti (ecu) and the hybrid control ecu, free of charge. the recall began on july 30, 2015. owners may contact toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371.
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.

Campaign:
18V684000 on 10/04/2018
Component:
Hybrid propulsion system
Manufactured:
08/21/2011 - 06/29/2014
Affected:
807,329
Defect:
Toyota motor engineering & manufacturing (toyota) is recalling certain 2010-2014 toyota prius and 2012-2014 toyota prius v vehicles. excessive voltage in the intelligent power module (ipm) within the inverter may cause the hybrid system to shut down, causing the vehicle to stall while being driven.
Consequence:
If the hybrid system shuts down unexpectedly, it can increase the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the motor/generator control electronic control unit (ecu) and the hybrid control ecu as necessary, free of charge. interim notification letters were mailed on november 6, 2018. owners will receive a second notice when the remedy becomes available. owners may contact toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371. toyota's number for this recall is j0v. note: the software updates in this recall are needed even if the vehicle had the software previously updated under recalls 14v-053 or 15v-449.
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.
