PLANO, Texas (Feb. 21, 2024) – Toyota is conducting a safety recall involving certain Toyota Tundra, Sequoia and Lexus LX 600 vehicles in the U.S. Approximately 280,000 vehicles are involved in this recall.
Certain parts of the transmission may not immediately disengage when the vehicle is shifted to the neutral position. This can allow some engine power to continue to be transferred to the wheels and can allow the vehicle to inadvertently creep forward at a low speed when it is on a flat surface and no brakes are applied, leading to an increased risk of a crash.
For all involved vehicles, Toyota and Lexus dealers will update the software for the transmission at no cost to customers. Owners of involved vehicles will be notified by late April 2024.
