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.

DUE TO THE MANNER IN WHICH THE FRICTION LEVER INTERACTS WITH THE SLIDING SURFACE OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL INSIDE THE PEDAL SENSOR ASSEMBLY, THE SLIDING SURFACE OF THE LEVER MAY BECOME SMOOTH DURING VEHICLE OPERATION. IN THIS CONDITION, IF CONDENSATION OCCURS ON THE SURFACE, AS MAY OCCUR FROM HEATER OPERATION (WITHOUT A/C) WHEN THE PEDAL ASSEMBLY IS COLD, THE FRICTION WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS OPERATED MAY INCREASE, WHICH MAY RESULT IN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECOMING HARDER TO DEPRESS, SLOWER TO RETURN, OR, IN THE WORST CASE, MECHANICALLY STUCK IN A PARTIALLY DEPRESSED POSITION.
THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL MAY BECOME HARD TO DEPRESS, SLOW TO RETURN TO IDLE, OR, IN THE WORST CASE, MECHANICALLY STUCK IN A PARTIALLY DEPRESSED POSITION, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

ALSO, DEALERS WILL REPLACE ANY GENUINE TOYOTA OR LEXUS ALL-WEATHER FLOOR MATS WITH REDESIGNED ALL-WEATHER MATS, OR REPURCHASE THE PREVIOUS MATS FROM OWNERS WHO DO NOT WANT THE NEW ONES.

THE INTERIOR DASHBOARD IS MELTING
Other or unspecified, Aug 21, 2019
ON MY VEHICLE, MY DASHBOARD HAS DEVELOPED A STICKY RESIDUR ON THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD. IT APPEARS THAT THE DASHBOARD HAS BEGAN TO MELT. IVE ATTEMPTED TO CLEAN, ETC WITH NO POSITIVE RESULTS. THIS STICKY RESIDUE HAS A SUBSTANTIAL GLARE EMITTING OFF IT THAT SOMETIMES INPAIRS MY VISIBILITY AND OFTEN TIMES CREATES A REFLECTION ON WINDSHIELD HINDERING VISION WHEN OOERATING VEHICLE. SECOND NOTE IS EVERY SENSE THIS HAS BEGAN AND GOTTEN WORSE MY CAR INTERIOR NOW HAS A DISTINCT SMELL. UNSURE WHAT THE SMELL IS BUT IT SMELLS LIKE AN ODOR OF A HOT PLASTIC MATERIAL. MY INTERIOR HAS BEEN DETAILED RRC AND THE SMELL WHEN NOT GO AWAY. I CONTACTED TOYOTA BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS LAWSUITS AND RECALLS IN THE PAST. I WAS TOYOTA WILL NOT FIX BECAUSE THE RECALL HAD EXPIRED. IF ITS CREATES UNSAFE DRIIVING CONDITIONS, HOW CAN THEY PUT AN EXPIRATION ON THE FIX. THE CONDITION OF DASHBOARD I BELIEVE WAS CREATED BY A DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD NOT MADE TO WITHSTAND HUMIDITY OR HEAT. TOYOTA KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEMS, BUT REFUSES TO HELP LOYAL TOYOTA OWNERS, LIKE MYSELF. I AM VERY DISPLEASED WITH HOW THEY HANDLED THIS. IN THE PICTURE ATTACHED. THE SUN IS OVERHEAD, SO THE REFLECTION NOT BAD BUT STILL VISIBLE. LOOK AT BOTTOM OF WINDSHIELD AND YOU WILL SEE THE REFLECTION.

MELTING DASH: I PLACED THIS UNDER "AIR BAGS" BECAUSE THERE IS LEGITIMATE CONCERN FOR THEIR OPERATION UNDER THE DEFECTIVE DASH. ALSO, THE GLARE FROM THE SHININESS OF THE DASH IS A CONCERN. I PURCHASED IT NEW IN MAY 2008. MY DAUGHTER HAS BEEN DRIVING IT. THE PROBLEM CAME TO MY ATTENTION LITERALLY DAYS AFTER THE 10-YEAR "WARRANTY EXTENSION". I TALKED TO MY DEALER AND DIRECTLY TO TOYOTA AND THEY WOULD NOT RESOLVE THE DEFECTIVE DASH. THIS IS STILL A PROBLEM. IT DIDN'T GO AWAY AFTER 10 YEARS.

Structure, Wheels, Aug 16, 2019
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS STICKY AND MELTED. ALSO, THERE WAS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF LINT ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KINGS TOYOTA (4700 FIELDS ERTEL RD, CINCINNATI, OH 45249, (513) 683-5440) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 1908150490, BUT NO ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000. *BF CONSUMER STATED NOW IT HAS ACTUALLY BROKEN DOWN TO THE POINT THAT THE PADDING AND VINYL COVERING JUST RUB OFF. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT MANUFACTURERS WERE REQUIRED TO INSTALL PADDED DASHBOARDS YEARS AGO FOR SAFETY PURPOSES. TOYOTA DID EXTEND THE WARRANT BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT THE BREAK DOWN STARTED NATURALLY AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD. *JB

I HAVE CALLED MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER TO REPORT A STICKY, MELTING DASHBOARD. I CALLED SEVERAL MONTHS AGO TO REPORT THIS BUT IT WAS STATED THAT NO RECALLS WERE OUT ON THIS. I SAW ON THE NEWS LAST WEEK ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE AND I CALLED AGAIN ON 8/5/2019 AND WAS TOLD AGAIN THAT NO RECALLS WERE OUT. I USE A SUN GUARD FOR MY WINDSHIELD BUT THAT ONLY HELPS MINIMALLY. MY DASHBOARD HAS BEEN MELTING FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS AND I HAVE NO SOLUTIONS. HOW DO I PROCEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS?
Other or unspecified, Aug 4, 2019
THE DASHBOARD HAS BECOME EXCEEDINGLY STICKY. IT IS VERY DISTRESSING TO SAY THE LEAST. A FLY GOT STUCK ON IT THE OTHER DAY AND USING A KLEENEX TO REMOVE IT WAS A MAJOR MISTAKE. HOWEVER, THE MOST UPSETTING CONSEQUENCE IS THE SAFETY HAZARD CREATED BY SHINY/REFLECTION ONTO THE WINDSHIELD THAT IS MOST CONCERNING. I HAVE INQUIRED AT TOYOTA WHAT CAN BE DONE AND THEIR ONLY RECOMMENDATION WAS TO USE A CLEANSER MADE FOR DASHBOARDS. NEEDLESS TO SAY, IT DID NOT WORK.
Other or unspecified, Aug 2, 2019
MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND CAUSES A CONSTANT GLARE THAT OBSTRUCTS MY VIEW WHILE DRIVING. WHEN I TOLD TOYOTA ABOUT THIS THEY SAID IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. I HAVE NEVER BEEN CONTACTED BY TOYOTA REGARDING THIS IS A POSSIBILITY OF HAPPENING. SUNSHADES DID NOT PREVENT THE MELTING AS IT GETS WORSE YEARLY AND I USE SHADES DAILY. TOYOTA NEEDS TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING BECAUSE THIS PUTS MY LIFE AS WELL AS OTHERS IN DANGER DUE TO THE MAJOR GLARE.

I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES AND ON THE PHONE WITH TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE 2 TIMES, AND THEY BOTH KEEP REDIRECTING ME TO EACH OTHER. I HAVE EXPRESSED CONCERNS ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF THE AIRBAGS SINCE THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING. TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THE SITUATION AND IS REFUSING TO ASSIST IN ANY WAY. APPARENTLY, THERE WAS A RECALL THAT HAS SINCE EXPIRED, HOWEVER I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. THIS CAUSES GREAT CONCERN FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN FACTORY DEFECT THAT TOYOTA IS NOT ADDRESSING WITH EASE OR HONESTY.
