Toyota and Lexus recently issued a recall in the US due to an issue with the airbags on select vehicles. The voluntary recall involves about 145,000 units of theToyota Highlander and Lexus TX. The recall was related to the curtain-shied airbag on the driver’s side not deploying on the affected vehicles. This would happen during certain crashes if the driver’s window is rolled down, according to Toyota. The issue would mean that vehicles may not meet the federal safety standard in the US and increase the risk of injury during certain crashes.
The Japanese automaker said it is developing a remedy for the issue and customers in the US will be notified of the problem by the middle of August this year.
