NHTSA recall 17V462000
Power Train · Toyota Motor Corporation
Details
What's wrong: The front drive shaft may separate.
Why it matters: A front driveshaft separation would result in a loss of propulsion while driving, and if the driver exits the vehicle without applying the parking brake, the vehicle may roll. Both scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will check the serial number of the vehicle's drive shaft, replacing any that are affected, free of charge. The recall began on August 11, 2017.
