New vehicle recalls in Canada: week of 7 September 2026

Transport Canada issued 1 vehicle recall in the week of 7 September 2026, covering about 52,750 vehicles in Canada. The systems involved: seats and restraints.

If one of these covers your vehicle, the repair is almost certainly free. Prenez rendez-vous chez n’importe quel concessionnaire du constructeur et citez le numéro de rappel. Transports Canada écrit lui-même qu’un constructeur « effectuera presque toujours ces réparations gratuitement » : se faire demander de payer pour des travaux liés à un rappel est donc inhabituel et mérite d’être remis en question. Depuis 2018, le ministre des Transports peut ordonner à une entreprise de payer les réparations afin que les propriétaires n’en assument pas le coût.

Transport Canada recall 2026427

On certain vehicles, the seatback recliners for the second-row seats may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the seatback(s) may not lock in position and could move in a crash. Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall No. 2026-101.

A seatback that moves could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do: To reduce the safety risk, Toyota recommends not using the second-row seats to transport passengers until the recall repairs have been completed. Toyota will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the spring in the second-row seatback recliner assemblies.

Check your own vehicle — and save it, so you hear about the next one the day it lands rather than whenever the letter reaches the registered owner.
