The speedometer, odometer and fuel gauge may become inoperative

Toyota is recalling about 3,800 model year 2019 Prius vehicles.

An electrical short circuit in the combination meter could occur, causing the speedometer, the odometer, and the fuel gauge to become inoperative.

If the speedometer and the fuel gauge are inoperative, this condition may not meet certain safety regulations and could increase the safety risk by diverting the driver’s attention from the driving task.

What to do

Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will check a component within the combination meter and -- if necessary -- replace the combination meter circuit board free of charge

The recall is expected to begin in early February 2020.

Owners may contact Toyota at (800) 331-4331.
