Buying a used 2019 Toyota Avalon? Check these 4 recalls first
The 2019 Toyota Avalon has 4 recalls in this group. Airbag nondeployment and fuel pump failures that may stall the engine dominate the recall record; an unreadable load capacity label is the administrative issue. The 70 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports. Electrical systems and fuel or propulsion systems each have 17, followed by power train with 10 and unknown or other with 8. Electrical and power train complaints deserve attention alongside documentation of the listed recall repairs.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm all applicable fuel pump recall repairs by VIN.
- Verify airbag recall completion and load-label legibility.
- Request records for electrical faults and power train complaints.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
