Toyota and Scion Vehicles Recalled for Missing Load Capacity Labels
NHTSA is recalling 2004-2011 Toyota and Scion vehicles sold without required load carrying capacity modification labels, which may increase crash risk if overloaded.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a labeling error that creates a theoretical risk of overloading and subsequent crashes, but no specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text, fitting the criteria for moderate severity.
Plain-English summary
Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC is recalling certain model year 2004-2011 Toyota and Scion passenger vehicles. The recall addresses a failure to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims." Specifically, these vehicles were sold without the requisite load carrying capacity modification labels.
The absence of these labels means a driver may not be aware of the vehicle's specific load limits, potentially leading to overloading. Overloading a vehicle may increase the risk of a crash. The affected vehicles include various models such as the Camry, Corolla, Highlander, Prius, RAV4, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra, and others across the 2004-2011 model years.
The safety recall began on May 27, 2010. Dealers will mail the corrected label to consumers or install the label free of charge upon request. Owners may contact Southeast Toyota at 1-800-301-6859 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 for more information.
