What This Recall Means

Component

STEERING

What Happened
The intermediate steering shaft is a crucial part that connects your steering wheel to the steering gear box in your FJ Cruiser. It might have a weak weld that could break over time.
Risk if Unfixed
If the weld fails, you could lose control of your steering wheel while driving, making it harder to stay on the road and increasing the risk of a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Toyota dealer will replace the intermediate steering shaft with a new one, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you receive the recall notice.
