Toyota Sienna Hybrid recalled for second-row seat back unlatch risk during crash
What this means
Certain 2022–2026 Toyota Sienna Hybrid 7-passenger vehicles have second-row seat backs that may not stay secured during a crash. An unsecured seat back may fail to protect an occupant properly, increasing injury risk.
- Check your VIN at Toyota's recall page or call 1-800-331-4331 to confirm if your vehicle is affected.
- Dealers will update the seat restraint software or replace seat backs (if you have the MaaS package) at no cost.
- Wait for your owner notification letter, expected in mid-December 2026, with repair scheduling details.
The agency's original wording
A seat back that is not secured may fail to properly protect an occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
