“The compliance label was printed with an incorrect seating capacity of 8, instead of the correct seating capacity of 7, which should have been printed on the compliance label.”
- A total of 141 cars are included in the recall
- Affected vehicles were sold between 20 October, 2015 and 18 December, 2019
- A VIN list of affected vehicles is attached here

Toyota Australia will contact owners of the affected vehicles and advise them to organise a free fix with their nearest dealer.
