Update: Toyota Rav4 Recalled for Crash Hazard

Toyota is recalling 2021 RAV4 Prime vehicles which were sold with headlight aiming caps that may have been improperly closed, allowing for horizontal adjustment of the headlight beam. "Adjusting the horizontal headlight beam can increase glare, reducing the visibility of an oncoming driver or the vehicle operator, increasing the risk of a crash," NHTSA said. Toyota is notifying owners and dealers will close the aiming caps on the headlights, free of charge. This recall began on January 4, 2021.

What's the Problem?

According to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), this recall affects:

• 1998-2000 Toyota RAV4
• 1998-1999 Toyota RAV4 EV
• 1998-1999 Toyota Celica
• 1997-1998 Toyota Supra

These recalled Toyota vehicles are equipped with defective airbag inflators that may absorb moisture, causing the airbags to rupture or under-inflate during an accident, NHTSA said. In the event of an airbag rupture in a crash, metal fragments could strike the driver or passenger at high speed, causing severe bodily harm, including death.

Toyota is in the process of developing a remedy for the airbag problem, and will notify affected owners when one is available. This recall began on March 22, 2020.
