[QUOTE]TORONTO, ON *(January 15, 2015) – Toyota Canada Inc., announced plans to conduct a safety recall of approximately 381 Model Year 2014‐2015 Prius v vehicles.

*

In the involved vehicles, the front passenger seat is equipped with an Occupant Classification System (OCS), which activates / deactivates the passenger seat air bag system depending on the weight of the seat occupant. There is a possibility that some OCS's may not have been calibrated properly during the vehicle manufacturing process. Under some conditions, this could result in no deployment of an airbag, increasing the risk of an injury to a front seat passenger in the event of crash.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]TORONTO, ON., (January 28, 2015) – Toyota Canada Inc. announced plans to conduct a safety recall of approximately 1,285 Model Year 2011‐2012 Avalon sedans.

In the involved vehicles, cargo could contact the audio system subwoofer wire located inside the trunk, and move the wire out of its normal position. If this wire contacts the metal frame of the subwoofer, it may result in an intermittent short circuit. If this occurs, the subwoofer could overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.[/QUOTE]

I don't get why people on this forum made such a big deal when there is a recalled for Kia or Hyundai
When other manufactures has it, they all pretend it doesn't exist
You obviously don't visit the auto forum much. Search recall and see how many threads pop up with GM/Ford/Chrysler, etc...

The steering system employs an intermediate shaft, which connects the steering wheel to the steering gear box.* *In the involved vehicles the intermediate shaft could have received an inadequate weld.* Under some circumstances, the weld could separate, resulting in the loss of steering control and increasing the risk of a crash.[/QUOTE]
