Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1104600 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | July 9, 1996 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Toyota |
| Component | Automatic transmission |
| Production period | April 18, 1995 — May 27, 1996 |
| Vehicles affected | 257,336 units |
Defect
A plastic rod inside the shift lever assembly of certain automatic transmission vehicles has insufficient strength and may fracture. If the rod fractures, the transmission may shift without the brake pedal being depressed. In the worst case, the key interlock system linked to the shift mechanism may fail to operate correctly, preventing the ignition key from being removed and disabling the steering lock.
Corrective action
Replace the plastic rod on all vehicles with a corrected metal rod and replace the associated components.
