NHTSA recall 17V763000
Structure · Toyota Motor Corporation
Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with an accessory billet grille overlay installed by set or provided by set and installed by set dealers. The u-nut that secures the overlay grille may fracture, allowing the billet grille overlay to detach from the vehicle.
Why it matters: If the billet grille overlay detaches while driving, it can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Set will notify owners, and dealers will replace the securing u-nuts with upgraded hardware, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin January 26, 2018.
