The 2016 Scion tC has 2 recalls, both involving a Load Carrying Capacity Modification Label that may not account for the correct weight of dealer-installed accessories, which can lead an owner to unknowingly overload the vehicle and raise the risk of a crash.
These two recalls cover the same labeling issue across vehicles built during different production windows, so the concern is the same regardless of when the vehicle was manufactured: the label used to communicate safe load limits may be inaccurate, and an owner relying on it could exceed the vehicle's actual capacity without realizing it.
