What happened

Toyota and Lexus passenger vehicles from model year 2019, including Camry, RAV4, Prius, Prius PHV, ES300h, UX250h, LC500h, and LC500 models, are subject to a recall due to a defective plastic brush holder in the brake booster pump motor.

A complete loss of braking assistance could significantly increase the vehicle's stopping distance and raise the risk of an accident.
