Buying a used 2019 Toyota Sequoia? Check these 6 recalls first
Six recalls, the longest list of the Sequoia years here: a steering part that can leak fluid, possible loss of power steering assist, airbags that may not deploy, two separate fuel-pump recalls that can stall the engine, and a load-capacity label that may become unreadable. Only seven NHTSA complaints — unverified owner reports — but two mention injuries, and fuel/propulsion appears among them, echoing the pump recalls. Seat belt and brake reports appear once each.
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.
- Verify both fuel-pump recalls were completed; they are two separate campaigns.
- Ask for receipts on the steering leak and power steering assist repairs.
- Check that the load-capacity label on the driver's door jamb is present and legible.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
