PLANO, Texas (Dec. 20, 2023) – Toyota is conducting a safety recall involving certain 2020-2022 Toyota and Lexus models in the United States. Approximately 1 million vehicles are involved in this recall. Included subject vehicles are in the table below:

The subject vehicles have Occupant Classification System (OCS) sensors in the front passenger seat that could have been improperly manufactured, causing a short circuit. This would not allow the airbag system to properly classify the occupant’s weight, and the airbag may not deploy as designed in certain crashes, increasing the risk of injury.

For all involved vehicles, Toyota and Lexus dealers will inspect the OCS sensors, and, if necessary, replace them at no cost to owners. For all involved vehicles, Toyota will notify customers by the middle of February 2024.

Information about automotive recalls, including but not limited to the list of involved vehicles, is current as of today’s filing date and is subject to change thereafter. To see if your vehicle is involved in a safety recall visit Toyota.com/recall or nhtsa.gov/recalls and enter your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) or license plate information.

Ruh roh, looks like my '22 ES300h is likely in there. I am in Canada but my car was built in Kentucky so I'm sure I will be a part of this.

I think the theme here is affected units that came out of Indiana, Kentucky or Cambridge. Likely no J VINs affected if any but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
