What happened

Toyota is recalling certain 2008-2014 FJ Cruiser and Tacoma vehicles that were equipped with accessory wheels and tires installed by Toyota or dealers before the first sale. These vehicles may have incorrect spare tire size and/or cold tire inflation pressure information on the tire placard. If the spare tire is inflated to the wrong pressure shown on the placard, tire failure may occur while driving, which could increase the risk of a crash.

Toyota will mail overlay stickers to owners or provide them to dealers to place over the incorrect information on the tire placard. The recall is expected to begin in September 2014. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331.
