Toyota Australia has issued a product safety recall notice for almost 70,000 late-model vehicles due to a potentially faulty digital instrument cluster.
The problem affects seven popular model lines, including the Toyota RAV4, Corolla, Corolla Cross, Camry, CH-R, GR Yaris, and Kluger, produced between July 2022 and April 2025.
The Faulty Instrument Cluster Explained
The 12.3-inch display on the instrument panel shows various information, including warning and indicator lights, vehicle gauges, and messages.
However, there is a possibility that the display can be blank when the vehicle starts and will remain in this state.
This is due to improper programming of the combination meter, which causes the memory device to deteriorate earlier than intended.
As a result, the monitor will not be displayed at ignition on, and the vehicle may not display vital information like speed, increasing the risk of an accident in certain driving conditions.
What’s Being Done About It?
Toyota Australia will contact all owners of affected vehicles and update the instrument cluster software free of charge.
The process takes around 1 to 2.5 hours, depending on the model. Owners may need to make their vehicle available for a longer period, depending on the dealer’s schedule.
In the meantime, Toyota says affected vehicles are safe to drive, and owners with additional questions or concerns can contact their local/preferred Toyota dealer or the Toyota Recall Campaign Helpline on 1800 987 366.
Affected Vehicle Models
The recall involves the following models: CH-R Hybrid, Camry Hybrid, Corolla Hatch Hybrid, Corolla Sedan Hybrid, Corolla Hatch, Corolla Sedan, Corolla Cross Hybrid, Corolla Cross, GR Corolla, GR Yaris, Kluger, Kluger Hybrid, RAV4, and RAV4 Hybrid.
