TOYOTA ANNOUNCES VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL


TORONTO, ON., (March 27, 2014) – Toyota Canada Inc., (TCI) announced it will conduct a voluntary safety recall of approximately 681 Model Year 2003-2004 Avalon sedans.
 
In the involved Toyota Avalon vehicles, certain circuits within the airbag control module may be susceptible to damage if exposed to electrical noise from other electrical components. In some instances, front airbag(s) and/or seat belt pre-tensioners could inadvertently deploy.
 
Dealers will remedy the condition, at no cost to affected vehicle owners, by adding an electrical noise filter to the airbag control module.  Owners of vehicles subject to these recalls will receive a notification by mail.

Detailed information is available to customers at www.toyota.ca/recall or by calling the Toyota Customer Interaction Centre at 1-888-TOYOTA-8.
