CARS.COM
Vehicles Affected: Approximately 3,500 model-year 2011-16 Toyota Tacoma pickup trucks and 4Runner SUVs equipped with accessory hood scoops installed by Southeast Toyota Distributors or SET dealers
The Problem: The adhesive attaching the hood scoop may weaken, allowing the hood scoop to detach from the vehicle, creating a road hazard and increasing the risk of a crash.
The Fix: Dealers will mechanically fasten the scoop to the hood for free.
