Toyota Sienna Hybrid third-row seatback bolts may be loose

NHTSA campaign 25V086000 · Reported 2025-02-13 · Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing

medium How serious is it? About this label

The van drives normally and there is no warning to park it, but a loose seatback could mean worse injuries in a crash, so avoid seating people or child seats in the third row until it is fixed.

What's wrong, in plain English

On these Sienna Hybrid minivans, the bolts holding the seatbacks of the third-row seats may not have been tightened enough at the factory. A loose seatback may not hold a person in place in a crash, and it also affects the head restraints and the anchors used for child car seats, so the vehicles do not meet federal safety rules. A Toyota dealer will tighten the bolts for free. The repair is just tightening the bolts already in the van, so no new parts are needed.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your Sienna Hybrid is covered by recall 25TA05. 2. Call your Toyota dealer to schedule the free bolt tightening. 3. Call Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331 if you have questions or did not get a letter.
