3 recalls covering model years 2018, 2019, 2020. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
A small spinning part inside the low-pressure fuel pump in these Yaris models can crack and change shape. If that happens, the pump may stop delivering fuel to the engine properly and fail. When the pump fails, the engine can stall — it simply quits running, which may happen while you are driving. Dealers will replace the entire low-pressure fuel pump assembly at no cost to the owner.
These Toyotas came with factory-installed floor mats, and the sticker that lists how much weight the vehicle can safely carry with those mats in place may show the wrong numbers. If you go by that sticker when loading people and cargo, you could put more weight in the vehicle than it is built to handle. An overloaded vehicle is harder to control. The fix is a corrected sticker, provided free, that you place over the wrong one.
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.
