The recall is due to a failure to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208, “Occupant Crash Protection.” The driver-side sun visor has an airbag warning label that may fall off. The safety issue is only that this does not meet standard requirements. While the recall is not likely to lead to many accidents, it’s an illustration of how many different violations can lead to a recall.
Dealers will replace the label or sun visor for free. Owners may contact Toyota at 800-331-4331 or the NHTSA vehicle safety hotline at 888-327-4236.
