DEFECT #1 - SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE
Posted on: 2014-02-12
Description
Toyota is recalling certain model year 2012 and 2013 toyota tacoma and lexus rx350 vehicles and certain model year 2012 toyota rav4 vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the brake system contains a brake actuator that adjusts the fluid pressure of each wheel cylinder. An electrical component within the actuator may experience an increased resistance resulting in the illumination of various warning lights, including those for the vehicle stability control (vsc) system, antilock brake system (abs), and traction control system.
Consequence
If this occurs, these systems could become inoperative, reducing the directional control assistance, increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective Action
Toyota will notify owners, and toyota and lexus dealers will update the software for the skid control electronic control unit, free of charge. The recall began on march 28, 2014. Owners may contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
