Plain-English summary

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing is recalling certain 2018-2019 Toyota Tundra vehicles. The recall addresses a defect in the accessory all-weather floormats where they may have been counted twice when creating the load carrying capacity modification label. This error resulted in the label incorrectly overstating the additional weight by 10 pounds.

As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims," because the incorrect label is not within 1% of the actual additional weight. The source text does not report any injuries, deaths, or specific incidents related to this defect.

All vehicle owners will be sent a corrected label. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371 for more information. Toyota's number for this recall is J0Z. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov.
