2019-2020 Toyota Yaris Sedan
2020 Toyota Yaris Hatchback & Yaris R Vehicle May Stall During Driving at Higher Speeds


On August 6, 2021, based on Mazda’s investigation into this issue, Toyota filed a Defect Information Report (DIR) with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) informing the agency of our intent to conduct a voluntary Safety Recall on 2019 – 2020 model year Yaris Sedan, 2020 model year Yaris Hatchback and Yaris R vehicles.


Condition:
The subject vehicles were designed and manufactured by Mazda. According to Mazda, the subject vehicles are equipped with a low-pressure fuel pump which may stop operating. If this were to occur, warning lights may be displayed on the instrument cluster, and the engine may run rough. This may result in a vehicle stall, and/or the vehicle may be unable to be restarted. If a vehicle stall occurs while driving at higher speeds, this could increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy:
Toyota is currently preparing the remedy for this issue. When the remedy is available, authorized Toyota dealers will replace the low-pressure fuel pump with an improved one FREE OF CHARGE. At this time, Toyota estimates the remedy can be available in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Covered Vehicles:
There are approximately 31,300 vehicles covered by this Safety Recall. Approximately 8,000 vehicles involved in this Safety Recall were distributed to Puerto Rico.

Owner Letter Mailing Date:
Toyota will notify owners by early October 2021.

Salvage Title Vehicles:
Every attempt should be made to complete an open Safety Recall when circumstances permit, unless noted otherwise in the Safety Recall dealer letter.
