Summary

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing "Toyota" is recalling certain 2019 Camry vehicles. The Occupant Classification System "OCS" may have been improperly calibrated, which may prevent the proper deployment of the front passenger air bag and knee air bag, in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

Consequence

In the event of a crash, if the air bags do not deploy as designed, the front seat passenger has an increased risk of an injury.

Remedy

Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will recalibrate the OCS, free of charge. The recall began August 27, 2019. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371. Toyota's number for this recall is K0M.
