Summary

Issue: 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.

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.

Corrective Actions: Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to modify the engine wire harness assembly. The dealer will also inspect the headlamp assemblies, bulbs and bulb connectors for damage. The dealer will replace parts damaged by this problem.

Summary

Issue: On certain vehicles, the wire harness for the front turn signal lights was assembled incorrectly. As a result, the turn signals and hazard warning lights are not bright enough to meet Canadian regulations. This could cause other road users not to notice when the signal or hazard warning lights are turned on. Safety Risk: Signal lights that are not bright enough could make the vehicle less visible to others, and could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to modify the wire harness for the front turn signal lights.
