What is wrong

This recall is for certain block heater kits installed on certain vehicles or sold as accessories at Toyota or Lexus dealerships. On certain vehicles, the engine block heater cable may not have enough heat protection and could be damaged by high temperatures. If this happens, the cable could short circuit while plugged in, and cause the wiring to overheat or melt. Note: This recall only affects the following block heater/cord part numbers: C014003034 PK5A408J09 PU14000904 C014003151 PK5A408J13 PU14000905 C014000885 PK5A489J11 PU14000907 C014000888 PK5A489J22 PU14000909 C014000907 PK5A410H00 PU14000911 C014100904 PU14000900 PU14000913 C014100907 PU14000901 PU14003571 C014100911 PU14000902 PK5A489J14 PK5A408J05 PU14000903

Why it matters

Engine block heater wiring that overheats or melts could create the risk of a fire.

What the dealer will do

Toyota recommends that you should stop using the engine block heater immediately. Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to disable the engine block heater. For some vehicles, the corrective actions for this recall are under development. For others, a new engine block heater cannot be installed, and the owner will receive a refund of the purchase price of the engine block heater.

Transport Canada recall 2021718 · manufacturer campaign SRC RD0

23 November 2021

Transport Canada lists: Sequoia 2021–2022 · Tundra 2007–2012, 2014–2015, 2017–2019, 2021

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a defect in the steering gear assembly could cause it to leak power steering fluid. If this happens, there could be a loss of power steering assist. Note: For 2007-2020 models, this recall only affects 41 vehicles that had a replacement steering gear installed in 2021.

Why it matters

A loss of power steering assist may result in a sudden increase in steering effort, especially at low speeds. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect, and if necessary, replace power steering gear assembly.

Seats And Restraints

Transport Canada recall 2018097 · manufacturer campaign SRC R57

20 February 2018

Transport Canada lists: Tundra 2017

What is wrong

Certain vehicles may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard CMVSS 207 - Anchorage of Seats, CMVSS 210 - Seat Belt Anchorages, CMVSS 210.1 - User-ready Tether Anchorages for Restraint Systems and Booster Seats, and CMVSS 210.2 - Lower Universal Anchorage Systems for Restraint Systems and Booster Seats. One or more of the bolts fixing the left hand rear split seat bracket sub-assemblies to the floor pan may not have been tightened properly during assembly. This could allow the seat to move in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury to the seat occupant.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will retighten the five seat leg bracket bolts.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the electrical power cords of some dealer installed block heaters may have been improperly manufactured, causing the wires to contact each other, resulting in a short circuit. A short circuit could lead to a fire which would increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property.

What the dealer will do

For vehicles where the subject block heater was approved for installation, the dealer will replace the block heater assembly with a new one of an improved design. For vehicles where the subject block heater was not approved for installation, dealers will remove the block heater assembly. In the interim, until the remedy can be performed, dealers will cut the plug end from the block heater cord to disable the block heater's operation.

24 January 2017

Transport Canada lists: Tundra 2016–2017

What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with the plastic rear step bumper, the resin reinforcement brackets that secure the step corners of the bumper could become damaged after a rear impact. If a person were to use the rear bumper steps with damaged resin reinforcement brackets, part of the bumper could break off which could cause the person to fall, increasing the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the resin reinforcement brackets with steel reinforcement brackets. In addition, the rear bumper tread covers will also be replaced.
