Southeast Toyota is recalling certain model year 2008 and 2010-2013 Toyota Tundra, 2010-2012 Rav4, 2012 Toyota Sequoia, 2010-2011 Toyota Corolla, 2010-2011 Toyota Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2010-2013 Toyota Highlander and Highlander Hybrid, 2010-2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser, 2011 Toyota Land Cruiser, 2010-2013 Toyota Venza, 2010-2011 Toyota 4Runner, 2010-2013 Toyota Tacoma, 2011-2012 Toyota Sienna, 2012 Toyota Prius, 2013 Scion FR-S, 2011 Scion XD, 2011 Scion XB, and 2012 Scion TC vehicles. These vehicles were sold with labels that were outside the allowable one percent of accuracy of actual weight added. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) Number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
An inaccurate label could lead to owners overloading their vehicles and tires. An overloaded vehicle can result in a tire failure which may result in a vehicle crash, personal injury, or property damage.
Southeast Toyota will notify owners and provide a corrected label with instructions concerning its installation. A small group of the affected vehicles will need additonal remedies which are still being developed. The recall began on May 28, 2013. Owners may contact Southeast Toyota at 1-800-301-6859.

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.

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.
DEALERS WILL INSTALL A REINFORCEMENT BAR IN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WHICH WILL ALLOW THE PEDAL TO OPERATE SMOOTHLY. GM WILL NOTIFY OWNERS FOR THE PONTIAC VIBE PLEASE SEE 10V-018. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON FEBRUARY 5, 2010 AND WILL BE COMPLETED ON MARCH 15, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT TOYOTA AT 1-800-331-4331.

TOYOTA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004-2010 PASSENGER VEHICLES. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL CAN GET STUCK IN THE WIDE OPEN POSITION DUE TO ITS BEING TRAPPED BY AN UNSECURED OR INCOMPATIBLE DRIVER'S FLOOR MAT.
A STUCK OPEN ACCELERATOR PEDAL MAY RESULT IN VERY HIGH VEHICLE SPEEDS AND MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO STOP THE VEHICLE, WHICH COULD CAUSE A CRASH, SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
TOYOTA FILED AN AMENDED DEFECT REPORT ON NOVEMBER 25, 2009, STATING THAT DEALERS WILL MODIFY THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND, ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, ALTER THE SHAPE OF THE FLOOR SURFACE UNDER THE PEDAL. THESE CHANGES ADDRESS THE RISK OF PEDAL ENTRAPMENT DUE TO INTERFERENCE WITH THE FLOOR MAT. REDESIGNED ACCELERATOR PEDALS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE BEGINNING IN APRIL 2010 AND DEALERS WILL REPLACE ANY MODIFIED PEDAL WITH THE NEW PEDAL IF DESIRED. 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. ADDITIONALLY, SOFTWARE MODIFICATIONS WILL BE INSTALLED ON CAMRY, AVALON AND LEXUS ES 350, IS 350 AND IS 250 MODELS THAT WILL ENSURE THAT THE BRAKE OVERRIDES THE ACCELERATOR IN THE EVENT BOTH BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDALS ARE APPLIED.

THREE OF THE FOUR DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED. THE FAILURES BEGIN INTERMITTENTLY AND THEN RESULT IN TOTAL FAILURE. THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR HAVE TOTALLY FAILED. THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR NOW INTERMITTENTLY FAILS. TOYOTA INDICATED THAT THEY HAVE NO RECALLS OR EXTENDED WARRANTIES. INTERNET SEARCHES SHOW THAT MULTIPLE TOYOTA MODELS HAVE THIS AS A COMMON FAILURE. THIS POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DOOR LOCKS DO NOT RESPOND TO THE ELECTRICAL UNLOCK / LOCK BUTTON AND DO NOT RESPOND TO THE REMOTE. MANUAL UNLOCK STILL WORKS; HOWEVER, IN THE CASE OF SMALL CHILDREN OR USE OF THE CHILD SAFETY LOCKS, THIS WILL LIKELY NOT BE AN OPTION. I HAVE REGISTERED A COMPLAINT CASE WITH TOYOTA USA. TOYOTA USA INDICATED THAT NOTHING WILL BE DONE BY THEM AT THIS TIME. THEY WILL NOTIFY ME IF THEY ISSUE A RECALL OR EXTENDED WARRANTY IN THE FUTURE. *TR

2010 CAMRY - BOUGHT NEW. TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR ALL SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES & SERVICE. REPLACED NEW MICHELIN TIRES (RATED 60,000 MILES) AT 32,000 MILES THAT WORE OUT UNEVENLY. WE NOTED THAT OUR VANS WHICH HAVE MORE ROLL THAN A CAR AND ARE MORE HEAVILY LOADED, USUALLY GO AT LEAST 55,000 AND THAT THEY WEAR MORE EVENLY. SINCE THE DEALERSHIP WAS CHECKING EVERYTHING, IT DID NOT OCCUR TO US THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE STRUTS SINCE THE CAR WAS SO NEW AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT NEVER ALERTED US.SUDDENLY, AT 50,000 MILE CHECK UP, WE WERE INFORMED ALL 4 STRUTS ARE AT #2 AND MUST BE REPLACED. THIS IS A LIGHTLY DRIVEN CAR. ( 2 DRIVERS AND 3 VEHICLES.) THESE ARE MAINLY HIGHWAY MILES IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND WE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLES. WE NEVER LOAD IT AND RARELY HAVE MORE THAN 1 PERSON IN THE CAR. WE HAVE NEVER EVEN NEEDED A BRAKE JOB AND HAVE 70% LEFT ON OUR BRAKE PADS. AFTER LOOKING ON LINE I NOTICED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH MANY CAMRYS AFTER 2007. I CONTACTED TOYOTA ABOUT THIS AND AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION, THEY OFFERED $750 DISCOUNT IF WE HAVE IT SERVICED AT A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. .DEALERSHIP ESTIMATES RANGE AROUND $1800 +. I CONTEND THAT SINCE TOYOTA DOES NOT RECOMMEND ANYTHING BE DONE WITH LEAKING STRUTS UNTIL THEY ARE TOTALLY SHOT, THEY DID NOT TELL US THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG WHILE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. TIRES PREMATURELY WEARING AND WHY WOULD ALL 4 STRUTS SUDDENLY FAIL IF THESE WERE NOT DEFECTIVE? WHY WOULD TOYOTA SAY STRUTS THAT LEAK AT ALL ARE NORMAL? SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, TOYOTA NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. THIS IS NOT STANDARD MAINTENANCE - IT IS A DEFECT. SINCE TOYOTA IS ARBITRARILY DECIDING, WE WOULD APPRECIATE A CONSUMER ADVOCATE TO ASSIST US. WE ARE FINE WITH NORMAL MAINTENANCE COSTS AND IF IT WERE OLDER OR WITH MORE MILEAGE, WE WOULD NOT BE SO UPSET ABOUT THIS MAJOR PART FAILURE. *TR
