Toyota is conducting a safety recall involving certain Toyota and Lexus vehicles

TORONTO, November 13, 2026 – Toyota is conducting a safety recall involving certain Toyota model year 2016-2017 4Runner, 2003-2008 Corolla, 2005-2007 Sequoia, 2005-2006 Tundra and Lexus 2017 GX460 and 2002-2010 SC430 vehicles. Approximately 8,646 vehicles are involved in this recall in Canada.

The front passenger airbag made by Takata contains an inflator with propellant that can degrade over time in certain temperature and humidity conditions. Degraded propellant can cause the inflator to rupture if the airbag deploys. An inflator rupture may cause metal fragments to pass through the airbag and into the vehicle interior at a high speed, which may result in injury or death to vehicle occupants. 

For all involved vehicles, Toyota and Lexus dealers will replace the front passenger airbag inflator or replace the airbag assembly, depending on the model, free of charge.

Owners of involved vehicles will be notified by January 11, 2027.
