NHTSA Recall 18V711000
Filed by Toyota Motor Corporation. Component: Equipment. Reported 2018-10-11. An estimated 508 vehicles are affected. Recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer.
Defect
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Toyota Tundra vehicles. The accessory all-weather floormats may have been counted twice when creating the load carrying capacity modification label, resulting in the capacity modification label incorrectly overstating the additional weight by 10 pounds. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
Risk
Since the incorrect label is not within 1% of the additional weight, the vehicles are not compliant with the FMVSS.
What the manufacturer will do
All vehicle owners will be sent a corrected label. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371. Toyota's number for this recall is J0Z.
Manufacturer campaign number: J0Z
