For all involved vehicles, Toyota dealers will update the programming of the skid control ECU software for the brake actuator, free of charge.

Owners of involved vehicles will be notified by late November 2024.

Information about automotive recalls, including but not limited to the list of involved vehicles, is current as of today’s filing date and is subject to change thereafter.
