The Problem: A fuel pump may stop operating, which may cause warning lights and messages to be displayed on the instrument panel and the engine to run rough, possibly resulting in a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The Fix: Toyota said the issue is still being investigated and the remedy is under development.
