Safety Recalls
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is federally authorized to issue vehicle safety standards and investigate safety-related vehicle defects. A safety recall opens when the NHTSA or Toyota determines that a vehicle, device, equipment, tire, or any other component fails to meet safety standards. Safety recalls include a corrective maintenance campaign whereby all involved vehicles can get free service that eliminates the known risk. An authorized dealership must perform safety recall services. Toyota owners can contact Thompsons Toyota to schedule.
Campaign Recalls
Auto manufacturers such as Toyota are vested in manufacturing vehicles that deliver trustworthy performance. Toyota issues a service campaign if a vehicle or component is not performing as expected. Although Toyota campaign recalls are non-emergency situations compared to safety recalls, we always recommend scheduling the service as soon as possible to ensure peak vehicle performance. We are a Toyota-authorized service department fully equipped to provide campaign recall services.
Check for Toyota Recalls
Most drivers will find out about recalls when they receive the notification letter in the mail. However, there are other ways to check if you want to reduce lingering uncertainties. Toyota owners can check for active recalls by searching the Lookup Safety Recalls & Service Campaigns portal; search by entering your Toyota’s license plate # or VIN. You can find the VIN on the insurance card, vehicle registration, driver-side dashboard where it meets the windshield, or the driver-side door jamb. We also have helpful service advisors available during normal hours to field safety recall questions.
