What this recall means for you
Some front seat belt height adjusters may have been installed incorrectly. In a crash, the adjuster can contact the B-pillar and tear or separate, so the seat belt may fail to hold the occupant in place.
If the adjuster fails or detaches, the occupant may not be properly restrained during a crash, which increases the risk of injury.
Toyota will notify owners, and authorized dealers will replace the front seat belt height adjusters free of charge. You can also check whether your vehicle is affected by entering your VIN at the NHTSA recall lookup, and contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331 with recall number G0H.
