- AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEMNHTSA 23V864000Dec 20, 2023
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Corolla Cross vehicles that were previously inspected at a dealership under recall 23V-384.

Consequence: An air bag that does not deploy as intended increases the risk of injury during a crash.

Dealers will inspect and replace the instrument panel as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 26, 2024. Owners may contact Toyota's customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is 23TA16.
