In the event of a recall, no matter the size, our team at Dayton Toyota is quick to keep our local South Brunswick, NJ drivers safe with the information that they need. In the last week, Toyota has issues a safety recall for close to 73,000 Toyota Tundra models from both the 2016 and 2017 model years - all due to an issue with their equipped resin rear step bumpers and resin reinforcement brackets.
The resin material used to construct the rear step bumpers is now known to wear away after a collision and potentially go unnoticed by drivers. While the issue won't cause widespread injury, the damages to these parts can lead to an increased risk of an accident if a person were to step on the corner that has been affected. Toyota is being proactive about handling this issue, mainly by contacting owners that they believe to be impacted by the issue. They expect the free repairs to begin towards the end of February, but owners can contact their local dealerships to learn more if they're concerned.
Whether you're curious about the status of your Tundra model, or are looking to explore our inventory of new models, you'll find just what you're looking for and more at our showroom. With our location found conveniently at 2291 US Route 130, you won't have to go far to find a reliable Toyota dealership to visit today!
