Toyota and Lexus front passenger airbag may not inflate high

Reported 2023-12-20 · Campaign 23V865000 · Model years: 2020, 2021

These Toyota and Lexus vehicles have a sensor in the front passenger seat that tells the airbag system whether someone is sitting there. A short circuit can develop inside that sensor. If it does, the front passenger airbag may not inflate during a crash, so whoever is riding in that seat could be hurt worse than they otherwise would be. The dealer will inspect the sensor and replace it if needed, free of charge. Owner letters are being mailed in stages.
