2018-2019 Toyota Tundra: Recall Alert

Vehicles Affected: Approximately 138,000 model-year 2018-19 Toyota Tundra pickup trucks produced from early August 2017 to late September 2018

The Problem: Due to an improperly programmed electronic control unit for the airbag system, a fault may be detected during vehicle startup that would disable one or more of the sensors used to detect crashes. This could result in the side or curtain shield airbags and/or front and knee airbags failing to deploy during a crash, resulting in an increased risk of injury.

The Fix: Dealers will inspect the sensors and update the airbag ECU at no cost to customers.

What Owners Should Do: Toyota will notify owners by the end of October. Owners can call the automaker at 800-331-4331, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
