2007 TOYOTA TACOMA Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2007 Toyota Tacoma has 6 recalls, the most serious being a leaf spring that can fracture and puncture the fuel tank, creating a fire risk, and a rear propeller shaft on 4WD models that can break apart and separate from the vehicle, causing loss of control. Two recalls involve the driver's airbag being disabled. Vibration from the steering wheel can damage the clockspring, a coiled cable assembly that carries electrical power to the airbag, and a separate issue with the flexible flat cable in the steering column can also cut the airbag's electrical connection. In either case, the driver's airbag may not deploy in a crash. On the restraint side, this Tacoma is an Access Cab model, and the rear door seatbelt pretensioner mounting screws can loosen over time from repeated hard door closings, leaving the pretensioner unable to tighten the belt in a crash. There is also a recall for vehicles equipped with an optional tonneau cover: if the front panel's lock cylinder binds in the open position, the cover can fly off while driving.
