18E091000·SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC2018-09-20

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain Toyota Racing Development (TRD) brake kits, part numbers PTR09-21111 and PTR09-52080, sold by Toyota as an optional accessory for model year 2008-2015 Scion xB, and 2011-2016 Scion tC vehicles. Over time, the brake hoses in these kits may fatigue and fail.

RiskFailure of a brake hose will reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash.

Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371. Toyota's number for this recall is J0U.

Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (SET) is recalling certain model year 2016 Toyota Camry and Highlander, 2015-2016 Toyota Tundra, Scion FR-S, and tC vehicles. The Load Carrying Capacity Modification Label may not reflect the correct added weight of the installed accessories. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims for Passenger Cars."

RiskAn incorrect label may lead an owner to overload the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
