What's wrong, in plain English

On some of these vehicles, the fuel filler pipe may not have been properly reconnected to the fuel tank during an inspection that takes place after the vehicle is assembled. Because of this, the filler pipe may not be securely attached, which can allow fuel to leak out of the tank. If that leaked fuel comes into contact with a source of ignition, it can start a fire.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is included.
2. Contact a Toyota dealer, or call Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371, to have the fuel filler pipe inspected.
3. Dealers will replace the pipe if needed, free of charge.

Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 19V097000.
