STEERING:COLUMN

Manufacturer
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing
What Happened
The steering column in your vehicle has a spiral cable assembly that helps your airbag deploy in an accident. In some cases, this assembly might not be properly connected, which could cause the airbag to not work when it's supposed to.
Risk if Unfixed
If the airbag doesn't deploy, you could be more likely to get hurt in a crash, especially in a severe collision.
Free Fix
Your Toyota dealer will check the spiral cable assembly and replace it if it's not connected correctly – at no cost to you. You should schedule this repair as soon as you get the recall notice.

Original — What Happened
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2023 Toyota Corolla, Corolla Cross, Corolla Cross Hybrid, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Tacoma, Lexus RX350, 2023-2024 NX250, and NX350 vehicles that may have been incorrectly repaired under previous NHTSA recall number 23V-480. An electrical connection inside the steering column's spiral cable assembly may be insufficiently welded, causing the connection to separate and deactivate the driver's air bag. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
Original — Risk if Unfixed
A deactivated driver's air bag will not deploy as intended, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

What Happened

Risk if Unfixed
If the rearview image doesn't show up while you're reversing, you'll have a reduced view of what's behind your vehicle, increasing the risk of a collision with people or objects.
Free Fix
Your Lexus dealer will update the camera software or replace the camera with a new one, all free of charge. Just schedule the repair when you receive the recall notice in the mail.
