2019 Toyota Prius: Recall Alert
Vehicles Affected: Approximately 3,800 model-year 2019 Toyota Prius hybrid hatchbacks
The Problem: An electrical short circuit in the combination meter could occur, causing the speedometer, odometer and fuel gauge to become inoperative. This may not meet certain safety regulations and could divert the driver’s attention, increasing the risk of a crash.
The Fix: Dealers will check a component within the combination meter and replace the combination meter circuit board with a new one, as necessary, for free.
What Owners Should Do: Toyota will begin notifying owners in early February 2020. Owners can call Toyota at 888-270-9371, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
