NHTSA recall 03V031000
Equipment · Toyota Motor Corporation
Details
What's wrong: Certain sport utility vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of part 567, "certification." The incorrect gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr) data was printed on the certification regulation label. The gvwr is incorrectly reflected on the label as 6,100 lbs. The correct gvwr should be 6,000 lbs.
Why it matters: The certification label does not meet the information requirements as described in the regulations.
The fix: As each label is vehicle identification number specific, owners will be requested to contact their local Lexus dealer first to place an order for the corrected label. Once the label has arrived at the dealership, the owner will be contacted for label replacement. Owner began April 10, 2003.
