Toyota Issues Massive Recall—Find Out If Your Vehicle Is on the Affected List

Toyota has issued a nationwide safety recall affecting approximately 443,000 2022-2025 Toyota Tundra and Tundra Hybrid pickup trucks after discovering that moisture can infiltrate the reverse-light assemblies and cause both lamps to fail. If the lights stop working, drivers may have limited rear visibility at night and other motorists or pedestrians might not realize the truck is backing up, sharply increasing crash risk, according to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Key details of the 2025 Toyota recall • Impacted models: All gasoline and i-FORCE MAX hybrid Tundra pickups built for model years 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. • Primary defect: Reverse-light assemblies can corrode over time, disabling both lamps. • Fix: Dealers will install redesigned lamp assemblies and repair any corroded wiring harnesses free of charge. • Owner notification: Toyota says notification letters will mail by mid-July 2025; however, owners can act immediately (see instructions below). How to check if your Toyota is on the recall list 1. Locate your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the dashboard or doorjamb. 2. Enter the VIN at Toyota’s recall portal (Toyota.com/recall) or the NHTSA lookup tool (nhtsa.gov/recalls). Results update in real time as new campaigns are filed. 3. If your truck is listed, schedule a service appointment with any Toyota dealer. Parts and labor are covered by the automaker. Why the reverse-light failure matters Federal safety standards require all passenger vehicles to have functioning rear lamps when the transmission is in reverse. The lights illuminate the path for the driver and warn surrounding traffic. Toyota’s internal investigation found that water intrusion can corrode the circuit board, causing an open circuit that disables both lamps simultaneously. While no injuries have been reported publicly, Toyota says the issue “can increase the risk of a crash,” prompting the recall action. What owners should expect at the dealership Technicians will remove the original lamp housings, install improved water-sealed units and inspect the wiring. If corrosion has spread into the harness connector, the dealer will replace or repair the wiring at no cost. Toyota estimates the repair takes about one hour, but shop schedules may vary. Additional Toyota recalls in 2025 This campaign follows the February 2025 recall of more than 280,000 2021-2025 Sienna minivans for sliding-door latches that could open while driving. Owners should verify whether multiple recalls apply when checking their VINs. Contact information • Toyota Brand Engagement Center: 1-800-331-4331 • NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline: 1-888-327-4236 Bottom line for drivers If you own a 2022-2025 Toyota Tundra, act now. A quick VIN check can confirm whether your truck needs the free reverse-light fix and keep you—and everyone behind you—safer on the road.
