- Problem
- Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2022 Tundra and Tundra Hybrid vehicles equipped with a Panoramic View Monitor (PVM) system. Incorrect programming of the parking-assist electronic control unit (ECU) software, may cause the front camera image to appear on the multimedia display instead of the rear camera image when the shifter is placed into reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."
- Risk
- A rearview camera that fails to display the correct image can reduce the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will reprogram the parking assist ECU, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 27, 2022. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is 22TA07.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
What this recall means for you
On certain 2022 Toyota Tundra and Tundra Hybrid trucks with the Panoramic View Monitor system, the parking-assist control software was programmed incorrectly. When the shifter is put into reverse, the front camera image may appear on the multimedia display instead of the rear camera image. The vehicle therefore does not meet the federal rear visibility standard.
A rearview camera that shows the wrong image reduces the driver's view behind the vehicle, which increases the risk of a crash, particularly when backing up.
Dealers will reprogram the parking assist control unit software at no charge. Owners who received the notification letter mailed July 27, 2022 can contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331 (Toyota recall number 22TA07). You can also check your vehicle identification number for open recalls.
