The ********* automaker announced that it was recalling 43,395 Sequoia Hybrids manufactured between 2023 and 2024 and sold in the U.S. The issue relates to a resin tow hitch located in the truck’s rear which is used when connecting a trailer and is attached to the rear bumper with molded clips. “Due to the design of the attachment structure between the tow hitch cover and bumper, there may be insufficient retention of the cover,” the statement explained. “Thus, the hitch cover may separate from the vehicle while driving, and be perceived as a road hazard, potentially increasing the risk of a ******.” Those who own one of the recalled Toyota Sequoia Hybrids can expect to receive a notification letter by late October. They’re instructed to take their car back to the dealership from which it was purchased. The automaker explained that technicians will replace the tow hitch, and further modify the rear bumper to better secure the hitch, free of charge. Toyota confirmed that it was unsure how many of the recalled vehicles were actually affixed with the faulty hitch, but they are recalling all 43,395 out of an abundance of caution.
