2023 Toyota Sequoia Hybrid, Toyota Tundra, Toyota Tundra Hybrid: Tires recall
NHTSA campaign 23V468000 · 1,398 units potentially affected · filed Jul 7, 2023
What's wrong
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2023 Tundra, Tundra Hybrid, and Sequoia Hybrid vehicles. The steel chain used to secure the spare tire to the underside of the vehicle may have been insufficiently welded.
Why it matters
Chains that are not welded sufficiently can break and allow the spare tire to detach, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the spare tire carrier assembly, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 14, 2023. Owners may contact Toyota's customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is 23TB06/23TA06.
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.
