AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Corolla Cross vehicles that were previously inspected at a dealership under recall 23V-384. The instrument panel may have been produced without the required perforation, which could result in the front-passenger air bag not deploying properly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
Fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the instrument panel as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 26, 2024. Owners may contact Toyota's customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is 23TA16. Vehicles previously inspected under 23V-384 will need to return to the dealership for additional inspection.
Owner Complaints (5)
You were involved in a significant accident on March 11, 2025, and your airbags did not deploy despite substantial damage to your vehicle. While Toyota has issued recalls for other 2022 and 2023 Corolla Cross models, your vehicle does not have a recall for this issue. Resolving this will likely require a diagnostic inspection of the airbag system to determine why the sensors failed to trigger deployment.
