When these Toyota and Lexus vehicles start up, a software error can leave the instrument panel, the display behind the steering wheel, missing important information. Your speed may not appear, and the warning lights for the brake system and for low tire pressure may not light up. That means you would not know how fast you are going, or that the brakes or tires need attention. Most vehicles get a free software update sent to the car wirelessly.

These Toyotas were sold with accessories added through Gulf States Toyota. When accessories are added, a sticker is supposed to be placed on the vehicle showing how much less weight it can now carry in people and cargo. On these vehicles that sticker shows the wrong numbers. If you go by it, you could load the vehicle heavier than it is rated for. Gulf States Toyota is mailing corrected labels to owners at no charge; nothing on the vehicle needs repair.

Certain 2023 Toyota 4Runners have a sticker listing the wrong maximum load the vehicle can carry. If you go by that sticker when loading people, cargo, or gear, you could end up carrying more weight than the vehicle is built to handle. An overloaded vehicle is harder to control and puts extra strain on the tires. The distributor will mail you a corrected label to replace the wrong one — no dealer visit is required for this one.
Some 4Runners fitted with 20-inch Black Gunner Wheels left the distributor with the wrong label showing how much weight the vehicle can safely carry. That sticker tells you the maximum combined weight of people and cargo you should put in the truck. Because the number printed on it is incorrect, you could load up the 4Runner past what it is actually rated to handle without realizing it. The distributor is mailing corrected labels to owners at no cost.
Reported 2022-05-06 · Campaign 22V310000 · Model years: 2022
The sticker that tells you how much weight your vehicle can safely carry was printed with ink that can fade until you can no longer read it. Without a readable label, you could load the truck or SUV with more people and cargo than it is built to handle. Gulf States Toyota is mailing owners a free replacement label with instructions to put it on yourself. Letters went out June 30, 2022.

On these 4Runners, accessory fog lights were installed, and the wiring can leave the driver's side high beam unable to come on. Federal rules require both high beams to work. With only one working, you get less light on dark roads and it is harder to see far ahead or spot hazards early. A dealer will install an updated wiring harness so the high beam works again, at no charge to you.

The fuel pump sits inside the gas tank and pushes gasoline to the engine. On these vehicles that pump can fail. If it does, the engine can stall — shut off — while you are driving, including in traffic or at highway speed. The recall covers a long list of Toyota and Lexus cars, trucks, vans and SUVs. Your dealer will replace the fuel pump assembly with an improved version, free of charge.
Reported 2019-09-20 · Campaign 19V670000 · Model years: 2018, 2019
On these 4Runners, some of the nuts and bolts that hold steering and suspension parts together may not have been tightened enough when the vehicles were being prepared. Loose fasteners can let those parts shift or work their way free over time. If that happens while you are driving, you could lose control of the vehicle, or an add-on part could fall off and become a hazard for the cars behind you. A dealer checks and retightens them.

Every vehicle has a sticker, usually in the driver's door opening, that tells you how much weight it can safely carry, including passengers and cargo. On these vehicles the printing on that sticker can fade until you cannot read it. If you cannot see those numbers, you may load the vehicle heavier than it was built to handle, which can affect how it steers, brakes, and wears its tires. The dealer will give you a corrected replacement label.
Reported 2018-10-25 · Campaign 18V753000 · Model years: 2018, 2019
Southeast Toyota added a TRD wheel package to these 4Runners. The sticker on the door frame that lists how much total weight the vehicle can safely carry may show the wrong number. If you load the truck based on that sticker, you could end up carrying more weight than the vehicle and its tires are built to handle. The fix is simple: the distributor mails you a corrected sticker to put on in place of the wrong one.
Reported 2017-12-20 · Campaign 17V831000 · Model years: 2018
These trucks and SUVs left the factory with an incorrect sticker showing how much weight the vehicle can safely carry. The label itself does not break anything, but if you trust the wrong number you could put in too many people, too much cargo, or too heavy a load. An overloaded vehicle is harder to steer and stop and puts extra strain on the tires, which raises the chance of a crash. Toyota is mailing owners corrected labels free of charge.
Reported 2017-11-29 · Campaign 17V763000 · Model years: 2018
Some 4Runners were fitted with a decorative billet grille overlay — a trim piece added over the front grille — by Southeast Toyota or its dealers. A small nut that holds this trim in place can crack. If it breaks, the grille overlay can come loose and fall off the front of the vehicle, possibly while you are driving. Dealers will install upgraded fasteners so the trim stays put.
