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 engine and fuel-tube recall completion documentation.
- Verify spare-tire and Neutral-movement recall repairs.
- Ask about engine or transmission symptoms and obtain repair invoices.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
