Before you buy

1. 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.
2. Request rear brake hose and instrument panel recall completion records.
3. Verify front driveshaft and shock reservoir recall repairs and corrected weight labels.
4. Ask about structural, power train, or steering problems and review related inspections.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
