What is the Takata Compulsory Recall?
Certain Toyota models have been recalled for front driver or front passenger airbag inflators that were manufactured by Takata.

In involved vehicles, the non-desiccated propellant that inflates the driver’s or passenger’s front airbag (model dependent) could absorb moisture and degrade. If the inflator propellant degrades and the vehicle is involved in a collision, the airbag can go off with too much explosive force, causing sharp metal fragments to shoot out and kill or seriously injure people in the vehicle.

This is an urgent safety recall on an unprecedented global scale across many automotive brands, including Toyota. It is important that all affected airbags are replaced as soon as possible and we urge you to check your vehicle immediately, even if your vehicle has already been subject to recall (in some cases, replacement airbags may need to be replaced again, to ensure long term safety). A full list of all vehicles affected by the Takata airbag recalls in Australia is available on the Recalls Australia website.

All affected Toyota vehicles are now under active recall, so it is important you check your vehicle and ensure your contact details are up to date.

Find detailed information about the Takata recalls in our FAQs, including information about the use of non-desiccated inflators as replacements and what to do if your airbag has been replaced following a collision.
