What is being recalled

Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (SET) is recalling certain model year 2016 Toyota Camry and Highlander, 2015-2016 Toyota Tundra, Scion FR-S, and tC vehicles. The Load Carrying Capacity Modification Label may not reflect the correct added weight of the installed accessories. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims for Passenger Cars."

Why it is dangerous

An incorrect label may lead an owner to overload the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

SET will notify owners, and provide a corrected label for placement over the inaccurate label, free of charge. The recall began on July 14, 2016. Owners may contact SET customer service at 1-866-405-4226.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 16V-420 when calling a dealer.
