    Toyota Australia will recall 16,238 examples of the Toyota Camry sedan made between 2024 and 2026 to rectify a software issue that can affect the driver's instrument cluster.

    “Due to a software error, the 7.0-inch combination meter may fail to display at vehicle startup, thereby failing to display important warning messages and core driving information (eg: dashboard indicators and speedometer),” the recall notice says.

    “This can also deactivate the turn signal and hazard lamps and certain audible warnings (such as the key left in ignition and the driver/passenger seat belt reminder).”

    • A total of 16,238 vehicles are affected, produced between May 14, 2024 and May 21, 2026

    “If important warning messages and core driving information are not displayed on the combination meter, there can be an increased risk of accident resulting in injury or death to vehicle occupants and/or other road users.”

    There are no warnings or symptoms before the failure occurs.

    Toyota Australia says it will contact owners of all affected vehicles to organise a fix, which will include an update to the ‘combination meter' software.

    The update must be carried out by a dealer and will take around 60 minutes, although Toyota cautioned some vehicles may need to remain at dealerships for longer depending on individual workshop schedules.

    It’s the second recall in a little over 12 months for the latest, ninth-generation Camry, which was released in Australia in September 2024, with the popular sedan involved in a wider July 2025 recall of 69,586 Toyotas, including the Corolla, Corolla Cross, GR Corolla, GR Yaris, Kluger and RAV4 vehicles.

    That recall concerned a similar software programming issue that could cause the combination meter to remain blank, preventing the indicators, central info screen and instruments from displaying correctly.

    Concerned owners can contact the Toyota Recall Campaign Hotline on 1800 987 366.
