EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS
- The defect
- Gulf States Toyota, Inc. (GST) is recalling certain 2026 4Runner vehicles. The load carrying capacity modification label states the incorrect load carrying capacity. 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 load carrying capacity label may lead to improper loading of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- GST will mail a new modification label to owners, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 18, 2026. Owners may contact GST customer service at 1-800-444-1074. GST's number for this recall is 26R1.
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 94 vehicles this is a small campaign: 70% 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 one model year, 2026, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2026, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Toyota vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 36 times before this, most recently in March 2026 as 26V179000. 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 7 complaints with NHTSA, 3 of them before this campaign was filed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 26V571000 (equipment).
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 Gulf States Toyota, Inc. with NHTSA on May 4, 2026 as campaign 26V282000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
