What happened

Toyota is recalling certain Hiace and Land Cruiser Prado passenger vehicles equipped with diesel engines due to a fuel pipe connection issue. The fuel pipe connecting the fuel pump to the main fuel pipe may loosen due to engine vibrations because of incorrect tightening instructions. If the fuel pipe loosens, fuel may leak, which could cause the engine to stall and increase the risk of an accident.

The recall affects specific model years and frame codes of the Hiace (frame code GDH306) and Land Cruiser Prado (frame codes GDJ150 and GDJ155) vehicles, as identified by their vehicle identification numbers and frame number ranges. The recall became effective on October 16, 2019. The source document does not specify what remedy consumers should pursue.
