NHTSA recall 19V576000
Back Over Prevention · Toyota Motor Corporation
Details
What's wrong: Due to a damaged electrical connector, the back-up camera may not activate when the vehicle is in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply to federal motor safety standard (fmvss) number 111, "rearview mirrors."
Why it matters: If the backup camera system does not activate and the driver does not check his/her surroundings while reversing, there is an increased risk of a crash.
The fix: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the back-up camera system and replace the audio display unit, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began September 27, 2019.
