Tokai Rika Co. Ltd Front Seat Belt Assembly: Seat Belts recall
NHTSA campaign 22E095000 · 93 units potentially affected · filed Nov 10, 2022
What's wrong
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain Tokai Rika Co., LTD front-seat outer right-side seat belt assemblies with part numbers 73210-24171 and 73210-48130, and front-seat outer left-side seat belt assemblies with part numbers 73220-24131, 73220-33331, 73220-42221, 73220-47051, 73220-48040, 73220-48052, and 73220-48110, sold as replacement parts. The seat belt assembly force-limiter may not operate correctly, allowing the seat belt to extend further than intended after locking.
Why it matters
A seat belt assembly that extends further than intended may not properly restrain an occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the front seat belt assembly and replace the assembly, if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 9, 2024. Owners may contact Toyota's customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's numbers for this recall are 22TH01/22LH01.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
