Toyota and Lexus Recall Vehicles for Fuel Pump Failure Risk

Toyota is recalling approximately 1.8 million vehicles because a fuel pump failure could cause the engine to stall while driving, increasing crash risk.

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 (engine stalling leading to crash risk) where the source text does not explicitly report injuries or fatalities, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.

Plain-English summary

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing is recalling approximately 1,830,752 vehicles, including various Toyota and Lexus models from model years 2013 to 2019. The recall covers specific trims of the 4Runner, Camry, Corolla, Highlander, Land Cruiser, Sequoia, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra, Avalon, FJ Cruiser, and Lexus RC, GS, IS, LC, LS, GX, RX, NX, and ES models.

The defect involves the low-pressure fuel pump inside the fuel tank, which may fail. If the fuel pump fails, the engine can stall while driving, which increases the risk of a crash. The recall was initially issued in January 2020 and expanded in March 2020 to include additional model years and trims.

Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pump free of charge. The recall began on May 4, 2020. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371 or Lexus customer service at 1-800-255-3987 for more information.
