What's wrong, in plain English

Some Tundra trucks with the panoramic view camera system have a software problem in the parking-assist computer. In cold weather, this software can block the rearview camera's signal, so the backup camera image does not appear on the screen when the truck is shifted into reverse. This means the driver does not get the extra view behind the vehicle that the camera is meant to provide during that time.

What you should do

1. Check your Tundra's VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm it's affected.
2. Contact a Toyota dealer, or call Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331.
3. The software reprogramming is free.
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 22V285000.
