EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS
- The defect
- Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (SET) is recalling certain 2020-2022 4Runner vehicles equipped with 20-inch Black Gunner Wheels. The load carrying capacity modification labels are incorrect. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
- What it can cause
- An incorrect label may lead to unintentionally overloading the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- SET will mail replacement labels to owners, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed September 4, 2022. Owners may contact SET's customer service at 954-429-2000. SET's number for this recall is SET22A.
- 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 280 vehicles this is a small campaign: 56% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2020 to 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Toyota vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 29 times before this, most recently in May 2022 as 22V310000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 3 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 106 complaints with NHTSA, 38 of them before this campaign was filed. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in March 2020, 2 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 22V310000 (equipment), 21V963000 (exterior lighting).
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 Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC with NHTSA on July 6, 2022 as campaign 22V480000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
