2022 TOYOTA RAV4 PRIME Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2022 Toyota RAV4 Prime has 2 recalls, both centering on the same issue: the front passenger seat's occupant classification sensor can misread who is sitting there, causing the airbag system to behave incorrectly in a crash. Internal interference between seat components can cause the sensor to either fail to recognize an adult passenger or misclassify them, which may result in the front passenger airbag being suppressed or deploying improperly during a collision. One filing specifically affects vehicles equipped with an 8-way power front passenger seat with a seat lifter function, though the underlying concern is the same across both: an adult in that seat may not receive proper airbag protection if a crash occurs.
