PLANO, Texas (July 21, 2022) – Toyota is conducting a noncompliance safety recall involving certain 2022 model year RAV4, RAV4 HEV and RAV4 PRIME (PHEV) vehicles in the U.S. Approximately 3,500 vehicles are involved in this recall.
The Occupant Classification System (OCS) sensor in the front passenger seat may not operate as designed and can affect airbag deployment. This can result in a noncompliance with a federal safety standard and increase the risk of an injury to a front seat passenger in a crash.
For all involved vehicles, Toyota dealers will inspect the OCS sensor, and, if necessary, adjust a stopper and seat frame assembly near the sensor and recalibrate the system.
Owners of involved vehicles will be notified by mid-September 2022.
