Summary

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing "Toyota" is recalling certain 2023 Toyota Crown vehicles equipped with rearview and/or frontview cameras. Due to insufficient laser welding, the camera cases may separate, allowing water to leak into the cameras and short circuit. The rearview and front view camera images may not appear on the displays or display a distorted image.

Consequence

A rearview camera that does not display an image can reduce the driver's view, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect and replace the rearview and frontview cameras as necessary, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed August 9, 2024. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's numbers for this recall are 24TB08 and 24TA08.

Notes

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.
