Toyota also recalls Crown for cameras not displaying image

Earlier this month, the automaker recalled 13,077 of its 2023 Toyota Crown vehicles that are equipped with rearview and/or front view cameras.

In the NHTSA report, the automotive manufacturer said there was an issue caused by an insufficient laser welding which can lead to the camera cases separating. As a result, water may leak into the cameras and short circuit. The rearview and front view camera images may not display or show a distorted image.

For free Toyota dealers will inspect and replace the rearview and frontview cameras as necessary. Recall notification letters are expected to be delivered by July 30. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's numbers for this recall are 24TB08 and 24TA08.
