2019 Toyota E210 Corolla Hybrid: loss of power braking assistance
In July 2019, recall campaign UGG33 was issued for Toyota E210 Corolla Hybrid vehicles that were produced from 26 April 2019 to 31 May 2019. The brake booster pumps in these vehicles may have been manufactured improperly and this could cause power braking assistance to cease while driving. If the brake booster pump stopped operating, multiple warning lights and messages would illuminate, and/or audible chimes may sound. Furthermore, power braking assistance could be lost completely after several brake pedal applications. As such, the vehicle’s stopping distance would increase and this increased the risk of a collision. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2019/17709.
2019 Toyota E210 Corolla Hybrid: back door wire harness
In April 2020, recall campaign VG221 was issued for Toyota E210 Corolla Hybrid vehicles that were manufactured from 5 December 2019 to 17 December 2019. In these vehicles, the back door (rear hatch) contained a wire harness and connectors for electrical components. Damaged equipment was used during the production process to inspect the conductivity of the wire harness and the installed electrical components through a specific connector. In this condition, an oxide layer may develop on the surface of those terminals due to vehicle vibration and exposure to air over time, resulting in increased electrical resistance. This increased electrical resistance could cause the reversing lamps to become inoperative and this increased the risk of a collision. To fix, the back door wire harness was to be replaced. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2020/18295.
