Toyota Ireland has issued a voluntary recall of 19,592 passenger vehicles across multiple models due to a serious safety issue involving the instrument panel display. The recall, announced on 24 July 2025, affects popular models including the Toyota CHR, Corolla, Yaris, RAV4 and others.
Affected Vehicles
The recall applies to Toyota vehicles equipped with a 12.3-inch instrument panel display, produced between 29 July 2022 and 6 May 2025.
Models affected include:
- Toyota CHR
- Toyota Corolla
- Toyota Corolla Cross
- Toyota GR Yaris
- Toyota Highlander
- Toyota LBX
- Toyota RAV4
- Toyota RAV4 PHV
- Toyota Yaris
- Toyota Yaris Cross
Number of vehicles affected in Ireland: 19,592
Details of the Fault
The affected vehicles are fitted with a 12.3-inch display monitor in the instrument cluster, showing essential driving information such as:
- Warning and indicator lights
- Vehicle gauges
- Driver messages
Due to improper system programming, the system writes excessive data to a memory device, leading to premature deterioration. Once the memory is compromised, the instrument display will no longer activate when the ignition is turned on (IG-ON), and it will remain permanently inoperable.
Risks to Drivers
A malfunctioning instrument display means that drivers could lose access to critical information such as speed, fuel level, and warning lights. Without these safety alerts, the risk of an accident increases, particularly in conditions requiring quick driver responses.
What Owners Should Do
Toyota Ireland will contact affected owners directly to arrange for free rectification work at authorized dealerships. Owners are strongly advised to:
- Check if their vehicle is affected using Toyota Ireland’s official recall lookup tool.
- Book an appointment with a Toyota dealer if their car is listed.
- Avoid driving long distances until the repair is completed if the display malfunctions.
