MANUFACTURER: Toyota Motor North America, Inc.
MFR'S REPORT DATE: March 04, 2011
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 11V148000
NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: N/A
COMPONENT: Tires: Pressure Monitoring and Regulating Systems
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 22,000
SUMMARY:
Toyota is recalling certain model year 2008 through 2011 FJ Cruiser, Land Cruiser, Tacoma, Sequoia and Tundra vehicles for failing to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)." When factory-installed wheels and tires were replaced with Toyota authorized accessory wheels and LT tires prior to first sale, the tire pressure monitoring systems were not re-calibrated correctly and therefore do not start illuminating the low tire pressure warning telltale at the required minimum activation pressure.
CONSEQUENCE:
Failure to warn of tire deflations is a non-compliance with FMVSS 138 and could lead to tire failure increasing the risk of a crash.
REMEDY:
For the Land Cruiser, Sequoia, Tacoma and Tundra vehicles, the dealer will re-calibrate the tire pressure monitoring system on affected vehicles and install an updated tire and loading information label at no charge. For the FJ Cruiser vehicles, the TPMS cannot be reset so the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) for the TPMS will be replaced. Toyota is currently developing the remedy ECU. If an owner is not certain whether his or her vehicle is equipped with these accessories, please contact any Toyota dealer for an inspection at no charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule. Owners may contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
NOTES:
Owners may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.
