What Happened
The load carrying capacity modification labels on your vehicle are important for keeping you safe on the road. These labels tell you how much weight your vehicle can safely carry. Unfortunately, some 2005-2010 vehicles from Gulf States Toyota were sold without these labels.
Risk if Unfixed
Without these labels, you might not know the safe weight limit for your vehicle. This could lead to overloading, which increases the risk of tire failure, loss of control, and a possible crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will mail you the correct labels or install them for you at no charge. They'll also update your owner's manual to ensure you have the correct information. Just contact Gulf States Toyota at 713-580-3300 to schedule this free fix.
