What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported, as the source states an overloaded vehicle can increase the risk of a crash but does not report specific incidents.

Plain-English summary

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing is recalling certain 2019 Toyota Tundra standard and long bed trucks equipped with a spray-in bed liner. The recall addresses a defect where the load carrying capacity modification label may have been incorrectly calculated.
