Approximately, 145,000 vehicles are involved in this recall in the U.S. The curtain shield airbag on the driver’s side may not deploy as intended during certain crashes if the driver’s window is rolled down. If this occurs, the vehicles may not meet a federal safety standard, increasing the risk of injury during certain crashes. ***\[Related article: [2024 Lexus TX, Toyota Grand Highlander airbag malfunction fix]()\]*** Toyota is currently developing a remedy for this issue. Customers will be notified about this issue by the middle of August 2024. When we asked Nathan Kokes, Toyota Product Communications Senior Manager, if this also meant a stop sale, he replied, “that is correct.” Information about automotive recalls, including but not limited to the list of involved vehicles, is current as of today’s filing date and is subject to change thereafter.
