What this recall means for you
A software error in the instrument cluster's control unit can cause the LCD display in the instrument panel to go blank. When that happens, critical information such as the speedometer and warning lights is not shown, which raises the risk of a crash because the driver may not know how fast they are going or that a warning exists.
If you own one of these vehicles, the fix is a software update to the combination meter control unit. Dealers will perform the update free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed April 17, 2023. You can also contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331, referencing recall number 23TA02. Check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls to confirm whether your vehicle is affected.
