The US Department of Transportation, in conjunction with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, has issued a Consumer Advisory cautioning owners of certain Toyota vehicles to act immediately on recall notices to replace defective Takata airbags.
Consumers that are uncertain whether their vehicle is impacted by the Takata recalls, or any other recall, can check on www.safercar.gov/vinlookup. On the site, consumers can search by their vehicle identification number (VIN) to confirm whether their individual vehicle has an open recall that needs to be addressed. In addition, consumers can sign-up for NHTSA recall alerts, which go out before recall letters are mailed by the manufacturers to the affected owners.
If your vehicle is affected, please contact the Tom Wood Toyota Service Department for more information.
