Buying a used 2019 Toyota Yaris? Check these 3 recalls first
Three recalls, only one mechanical: a fuel pump that can fail and stall the engine, rated high. The other two are labeling matters — a load capacity label that can become unreadable and an incorrect weight capacity label tied to floor mats. Owner complaints are few, 26 unverified reports to NHTSA, spread fairly evenly across engine (8), electrical (8), fuel/propulsion (7) and steering (5), with one crash, one fire and one injury.
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 by VIN and receipt that the fuel pump recall was completed.
- Test drive long enough to check for stalling, hard starting or hesitation.
- Check that the door jamb load capacity label is legible and note any steering or electrical quirks the seller mentions.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
