The 2017 Toyota Tacoma is part of a brake-related recall announced today by Toyota.
Approximately 6,000 2018 Camry and Highlander vehicles and 2017 Sienna, Tacoma and Lexus RX350 vehicles are equipped with a vacuum pump which provides braking assist. A component in the vacuum pump assembly may have been manufactured incorrectly.
A faulty vacuum pump could set-off a warning light, a warning message, an audible tone, and result in the sudden loss of braking assist. A sudden loss of braking assist while driving could increase the risk of a crash.
For all involved vehicles, Toyota and Lexus dealers will replace the vacuum pump with a new one at no cost to customers. All known owners of all the involved vehicles will receive a notification by first class mail by late May.
