Toyota Recalls Highlander, Rav4 Models

Problem with side airbags


photoToyota is recalling Highlander models from the 2008 model year and Rav4s from the 2007-2008 model years because of a problem with the curtain shield airbag.

The company said a problem with the sensor that detects vehicle rollover could malfunction. In addition, a failure of two separate sensors could cause the seat belt pretensioner to be activated, which could cause injury to the vehicle occupant.

Toyota will replace the airbag sensor assembly with a new one when the recall begins in mid-May, pending availability of parts.

Owners may contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331
