2010 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2010 Toyota Highlander has 4 recalls, the most serious being an accelerator pedal that can become trapped by a floor mat and stick wide open, making the vehicle difficult to slow or stop and raising the risk of a serious crash. Hybrid models also have a recall for the inverter, which can cause the vehicle to drop into a reduced-power mode and limit normal driving. On the safety equipment side, the passenger seat occupant sensor can fall out of calibration, causing the front passenger airbag to either not deploy or deploy incorrectly in a crash based on the occupant's size and position. There is also a labeling recall affecting vehicles sold through Southeast Toyota Distributors: certain Highlanders were sold without the required load capacity label, which can lead a driver to unknowingly overload the vehicle.
