What's wrong, in plain English

These Toyota Tundra trucks have a camera system that shows the area around the vehicle on the dashboard screen. Because of a programming mistake in the parking-assist computer, the screen may show the view from the front camera instead of the rear camera when the truck is shifted into reverse. That means the driver may not see what is behind the truck when backing up, so the vehicle does not meet the federal rule on rear visibility.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your truck is included. 2. Contact a Toyota dealer, or call Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331 (recall number 22TA07). 3. Dealers reprogram the parking assist computer 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 22V501000.
