Toyota Motor Philippines is issuing a safety recall for aselect Toyota and Lexus vehicles to address a possible malfunction of its Parking Assist ECU.
The issue which covers a wide range of Toyota and Lexus models (amounting to around 11,760 units in total) may mean that the Panoramic View Monitor system would freeze or fail to display the rearview image, particularly shortly after startup.

ReplyDeletePoor quality control by Toyota and Lexus Japan.
ReplyDeleteThis is good for Japan for they are constantly improving their vehicles.
Deletethere shouldnt have been any quality issues in the 1st place
DeleteBig issues or small issues toyota issued recall. thats what responsible auto company should do and Thats how toyota earned the trust of car buyers
ReplyDeleteToyota clearly k ows that they're doing.
DeletePeace of mind for toyota buyers knowing every issues had been or will be addressed and not be buried under the rug.
ReplyDeleteToyota is afraid of paying hundred millions of dollars when they got sued by a group of Toyota and Lexus owners.
DeleteTMPC did try to evade a DNGA mass vehicle recall issued by Toyota Indonesia back then.
Toyota is a responsible automaker. They admit their mistakes and fix them.
DeleteI'm sure that Toyota is very responsible but I'm not sure if every responsible automaker has been raided by Japanese authorities like what happened to Toyota with scandals in the past though 😅
DeletePeople should not be whitewashing the history of these profit-driven corporations as some of those mistakes weren't accidents and they just ended up getting caught.
Is this related to the transmission issues or a whole different thing?
ReplyDeleteKung ibang automakers to, tinatago at puro denial ginagawa... specifically one specific american brand dito sa pinas
ReplyDeleteToyota is overhyped. Mahal pms, underspecd, expensive pricing and outdated technology.. old engines, puro CVT, dami pa ng recalls and build issues.. sayang pera.
ReplyDeleteJust buy whatever brand and model you wish to own and drive.
DeleteAt least Toyota is always better than Chinese or even Korean cars.
DeleteYour toyota is made in Guangzhou china. Toyota engines and aisin trannies are made and asembled there b4 they are shipped around the world as CKD units.
DeleteQuality escapees
DeleteNice they admit and do recall
Anymous December 30 4:47am, korean cars are better than japanese technology cars.
DeleteToo many recalls means lower quality and future headaches to come
ReplyDeleteFor those who complain about too many problems, buy other brands so madagdagan naman market share nila. Toyota built its brand equity and market share according to their ways. Many may not agree but majority buys Toyota worldwide.
ReplyDeleteNot all people worldwide buy Toyota vehicles due to its pricing,poor driving dynamics and many more.
DeleteIndia,China,UK,Pakistan and European countries are the countries where Toyota aren't number 1 in terms of sales.
Yeah, but toyota sold 11M vehicles every year and world no. 1 since 2020
DeleteNo.1 in sales does not mean its the best car. Example is the mazda- its not no.1 in sales but it drives a lot better than the bland boring and souless garden variety corolla..
