If a vehicle with an affected airbag is involved in a collision, the airbag inflator could rupture, causing sharp metal fragments to enter the vehicle cabin at high speed and kill or injure vehicle occupants.

There is also a risk that the airbag may underinflate in a collision and may not protect the driver as intended.

Toyota Australia will contact all affected owners to advise of this recall action. Owners of affected vehicles should stop driving their vehicle immediately and contact their nearest/preferred Toyota dealership or Toyota Australia by calling the Toyota Australia Campaign Helpline on 1800 987 366 (Monday to Friday, 8am – 6pm AEDT) to organise their free urgent vehicle inspection. You can find your nearest authorised Toyota dealership by visiting https://www.toyota.com.au/find-a-dealer

If a recalled vehicle is identified as containing the affected type of driver airbag inflator, Toyota Australia will replace the airbag inflator free of charge. 

If your vehicle  is:
1.  registered for road use, Toyota Australia will provide a loan vehicle until replacement airbag inflators become available, currently expected in July 2020. Other assistance will be arranged on a case-by-case basis to minimise inconvenience.
2.  not registered for road use, Toyota Australia will arrange replacement of the airbag inflator, starting from October 2020.
