Toyota ProAce (2021)

accident suspension

25/07/2021

Reason for the recall:

The welding of the rear suspension spring holder on the underbody of the vehicle may be inadequate.

As a result, the spring holder could detach, causing the rear suspension spring to displace from its designed position and fall on the road, affecting the controllability of the vehicle and increasing the risk of an accident.

The Toyota ProAce vehicles affected by this recall were manufactured between 16 April and 30 April 2021.

This notification is purely informative for the vehicle type you have selected. As these deficiencies often relate to specific components (engine type, bodywork, equipment), the recall may not apply to all vehicles of this type. For more detailed information on possible recalls for your vehicle, please get in touch with an authorised workshop (see below at "What the owner should do?").

What should an owner do if there's a recall?

Please note that the recall may not apply to all vehicles produced in a given period. If you think your car might be affected, you should immediately contact a Toyota dealer or workshop officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details. You can use our sample request text. After reporting the vehicle's VIN code, you will find out if the defect is present on your car, or if it has already been resolved by the previous owner if the car was purchased second-hand.
