2019 TOYOTA AVALON Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2019 Toyota Avalon has 2 recalls, both involving the airbag control unit failing to deploy airbags and seatbelt pretensioners correctly in a crash, which raises the risk of injury to occupants. The first issue can occur during certain crash scenarios, where the airbag control unit malfunctions and prevents airbags and seatbelt pretensioners from activating. The second involves the same control unit erroneously detecting a fault during the vehicle's startup self-check, which can also leave the airbag system inactive if a crash occurs. Both recalls affect standard and Hybrid trims.
