Toyota PH recalls hybrid RAV4, Lexus NX for stability control issue | Autoindustriya

Based on the recall notice (AKA: special service campaign) Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) submitted to the Department of Trade & Industry (DTI), a total of 132 officially sold vehicles are affected. This consists of 40 units of the NX HEV and 92 examples of the RAV4 HEV. In the global market, the production period of the affected vehicles is from Oct 8, 2019, to April 7, 2022.

The main issue surrounding the recall involves the Skid Control ECU of the vehicle stability control (VSC) found in both the RAV4 and NX. Due to incorrect programming of the software after a particular set of operating inputs from the driver, the VSC may not return to the default 'ON' setting the next time the vehicle is turned off. This can happen if the driver manually turns off the VSC and the ignition is turned off and then turned back on while the brake pedal is still depressed.
