Toyota Announces Recall for Tundra and Tundra Hybrid Vehicles

In a significant move, Toyota Motor Company has announced the recall of approximately 443,000 MY2022-25 Tundra and Tundra Hybrid vehicles across the United States. The recall addresses a critical issue that could lead to the failure of reverse lamps, posing a safety risk during low light conditions.

Understanding the Safety Risk

"The concern arises from moisture intrusion over time, which can cause both reverse lamps on the affected vehicles to stop functioning. This malfunction not only limits the driver's rear visibility in low ambient light but also fails to signal other road users that the vehicle is in reverse. Such scenarios significantly increase the risk of accidents," explained Toyota in their official statement.

Next Steps for Affected Owners

Toyota has committed to notifying all impacted customers by mid-July. Furthermore, the company has assured that dealers will replace the reverse lamp assemblies at no cost to the vehicle owners, ensuring a swift resolution to the safety concern.
