Toyota Power Train Recalls Cover Axles, Transmissions and Unwanted Movement
Axle fasteners and transmission problems recur in these Toyota power train notices, with pickups appearing repeatedly. Certain 2022 Tundra and Tundra Hybrid trucks have axle flange nuts that can loosen; certain 2022-2023 Tacoma trucks have improperly secured axle fasteners associated with debris. Certain 2019 C-HR vehicles have rear hub bearing bolts that may loosen. Transmission notices cover unexpected neutral movement on 2022-2024 Tundra and Tundra Hybrid and 2023-2024 Sequoia Hybrid vehicles, oil entering the transmission control unit on certain 2023 GR Supra vehicles, and torque converter impeller blades detaching in certain 2019 Corolla hatchbacks with CVTs. A separate 2025 Tacoma and Tacoma Hybrid notice concerns front driveshaft CV joints that may deform and break.
Warning signs to watch for
- 2023 GR Supra transmission control unit recall: transmission seizure can cause a sudden loss of drive power.
- Tundra and Sequoia neutral movement recall, 24TA02: unexpected movement may occur in neutral when the brakes are not applied.
- 2025 Tacoma and Tacoma Hybrid driveshaft recall, 25TB11/25TA11: a broken driveshaft can impair steering.
- 2025 Tacoma and Tacoma Hybrid driveshaft recall, 25TB11/25TA11: vehicles with full-time 4WD may roll away while parked without the parking brake applied.
- 2019 Corolla hatchback torque converter recall, J17/J07: the vehicle may stall.
Can you keep driving? What the notices say
None of the supplied Toyota power train notices tells owners to stop driving or park outside. The C-HR hub bolt, Tundra axle nut, and Tacoma rear axle notices do not give stop-driving instructions. Neither do the GR Supra transmission control unit, Tundra and Sequoia neutral movement, Tacoma front driveshaft, or Corolla hatchback torque converter notices. The supplied text provides no stop-driving or park-outside instruction for these recalls; the absence of those instructions does not establish that an affected vehicle is safe to drive.
What the free repair involves
The stated remedies are free of charge. Tundra axle repairs include inspection, nut tightening and damaged component replacement as necessary; Tacoma rear axle repairs include inspection, necessary tightening, and repair or replacement of damaged components. The neutral movement recall updates transmission ECU software. Corolla J17/J07 replaces the CVT and torque converter. Tacoma 25TB11/25TA11 inspects and replaces both front driveshaft assemblies as necessary.
