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.
- Request VIN-specific child seat anchor recall completion records.
- Confirm the rear axle shaft recall repair and ask about power train symptoms.
- Inspect weight label readability and ask about air bag warnings or structural repairs.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
