FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: SENSING SYSTEM: RADAR

The defect
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2021 C-HR vehicles. The radar sensor may not have been activated during production, making the pre-collision system (PCS) inoperative.
What it can cause
An inoperative PCS that does not provide a malfunction indicator to the driver, or braking assist as expected, can increase the risk of a crash.
What the dealer does
Dealers will inspect and activate the radar sensor as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 22, 2022. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is 22TA02.
NHTSA's note
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.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 36,558 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 87% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2021, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Toyota vehicles have been recalled over the forward collision avoidance once before this, most recently in November 2015 as 15V728000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 32 complaints with NHTSA, 5 of them before this campaign was filed. 4 of those name the forward collision avoidance, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing with NHTSA on February 24, 2022 as campaign 22V107000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
