Details

What's wrong: An electrical short circuit in the combination meter could occur, causing the speedometer, the odometer, and the fuel gauge to go blank. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 101, "controls and displays."

Why it matters: A blank main display will not show important information like vehicle speed or fuel level. Driving with an inoperative display can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the flash memory chip (rom) production date, and if necessary, replace it along with the combination meter circuit board, free of charge. The recall began February 7, 2020.
