Toyota Motor Company (Toyota) is recalling certain model year 2009-2011 Tundra, Sequoia, Corolla, Corolla Matrix and Scion xB, 2008-2011 Highlander and Highlander Hybrid, 2007 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2009 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2006-2011 RAV4, 2006-2010 Yaris, and 2009-2010 Scion xD and Pontiac Vibe vehicles. During the manufacturing of the Power Window Master Switch (PWMS), grease lubricant may have been inconsistently applied to the sliding electrical contacts.
If the sliding electrical contacts are not protected by lubricant, debris and moisture that get into the switch may cause a short circuit and the switch assembly may overheat and melt, increasing the risk of a fire.
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the switch, applying a lubricant if no abnormality is found. If abnormality is found, the PWMS circuit board will be replaced, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin December 20, 2015. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is C0M.

Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (SET) is recalling certain models interspersed through model years 2009 through 2013 as follows: model year 2009-2012 Tacoma, 4Runner, Camry, Camry Hybrid, Prius, and RAV4; model year 2009-2010 Avalon, FJ Cruiser, and Highlander Hybrid; model year 2010-2013 model year Corolla, Sienna and Tundra; model year 2009-2013 Highlander and Venza; model year 2012 Prius V; and model year 2010-2012 Sequoia. During modification by SET to include accessories such as leather seat covers, seat heaters or headrest DVD systems, these vehicles may not have had the passenger seat occupant sensing system calibration tested. Without passing the calibration test, the occupant sensing system may not operate as designed.
If the front passenger seat occupant sensing system is out of calibration, the front passenger airbags may not deploy or they may deploy inappropriately for the passenger's size and position. This could increase the risk of personal injury during the event of a vehicle crash necessitating airbag deployment.
Southeast Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will test the sensitivity of the occupant detection sensors, and recalibrate them as necessary. The recall began on March 21, 2013. Owners may contact Southeast Toyota at 1-800-301-6859.

Toyota is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 Camry, Camry Hybrid, RAV4, Corolla, Corolla Matrix, Tundra, Sequoia, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Yaris, Scion xB, Scion xD and Pontiac Vibe vehicles. The power window master switch assemblies in some of these vehicles were built using a less precise process for lubricating the internal components of the switch assemblies. Irregularities in this lubrication process may cause the power window master switch assemblies to malfunction and overheat.
If the switch overheats, it may melt, possibly resulting in a fire.
Toyota will notify its owners, and dealers will inspect the switch and apply a special grease that inhibits heat build up or replace any switch damaged by the defect, free of charge. Toyota owners that experience a problem with a switch should not attempt to make repairs, but should contact their Toyota dealer or the Toyota Customer Experience Center at 1-800-331-4331. General Motors will contact the Pontiac Vibe owners affected by this recall and GM dealers will inspect and repair switches as necessary. Those owners may contact Pontiac Customer Care at 1-800-762-2737.

STICKY DASH. I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I NOTICED THE STICKY DASH SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, BUT AS I HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF A RECALL, DID NOT REPORT IT UNTIL MY LAST OIL CHANGE. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THAT TIME, REPORTED THE STICKY DASH TO TOYOTA. I CALLED THIS WEEK REGARDING THE MATTER AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT TOYOTA WOULD REPLACE THE DASH, BUT THE LABOR OF $251.00 WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY. I TOLD THE MANAGER THAT I DID NOT FEEL THAT THE LABOR OR ANY COST SHOULD BE MY RESPONSIBILITY, AS IT WAS A DEFECT IN THE PRODUCT AND NOT ANYTHING THAT I HAD CREATED. MY CAR IS PARKED IN THE GARAGE AT LEAST 96% OF THE TIME. HAVING SAID THAT, I DO FEEL THAT IF IT HAD BEEN PARKED OUTSIDE FOR MOST OF THE TIME, THE PROBLEM WOULD BE MUCH WORSE AND OVER TIME IT WILL MOST LIKELY GET WORSE. I WATCHED THE REPORT ON CHANNEL 5 LAST EVENING REGARDING THIS MATTER AND HOPEFUL THAT SOMETHING WILL BE DONE. THANK YOU *TR

MY 2009 TOYOTA CAMRY'S DASHBOARD HAS MELTED. IT HAS BECOME A STICKY, SHINY MESS. I TRIED TO PUT REFLECTIVE SHADES IN THE WINDSHIELD TO HELP SLOW THE DISINTEGRATION. UPON REMOVING IT TO DRIVE THE CAR ONE AFTERNOON SHORTLY AFTER I STARTED USING IT, PART OF THE VINYL WAS MELTED TO THE SHIELD AND RIPPED OFF THE DASHBOARD LEAVING THE ORANGE FOAM SHOWING. THE SAFETY HAZARD COMES FROM THE SHINY "PUDDLES" OF MELTED DASH. THEY ARE INCREDIBLY REFLECTIVE AND CAN BE BLINDING IN SUNLIGHT. THE GLARE IS DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. I CANNOT LAY ANYTHING ON THE DASH TO REDUCE THE GLARE, BECAUSE THE VINYL WILL ADHERE TO IT AND PEEL AWAY LIKE IT DID WITH THE SUN SHIELD. WHILE IT HAS NOT YET CAUSED AN ACCIDENT FOR ME, I CAN SEE WHERE IT MAY HAVE FOR OTHERS. AS THE CARS AGE FURTHER, MORE OF THE DASH WILL BECOME MELTED. EVENTUALLY, TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE ON THE ROAD WITH THE EQUIVALENT OF A SPOTLIGHT BLINDING THEM WHEN THE SUN IS SHINING. HOPEFULLY, A SAFETY SOLUTION WILL BE HAD BEFORE THEN. ANOTHER PROBLEM THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW, THE WINDSHIELD DOES NOT HAVE GOOD CLARITY WHEN DRIVING IN THE RAIN. I HAVE CLEANED IT SO MANY WAYS AND REPLACED THE WIPER ARMS, BUT IT HAS A SMEAR, OR FILM, THAT MAKES IT HIGHLY DIFFICULT TO SEE THROUGH IN WET CONDITIONS. *TR
