2008 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER Manufactured between: 09/01/2005 and 05/04/2009 Defect: toyota is recalling 27,080 model year 2005 through 2010 passenger cars built from september 1, 2005 to may 4, 2009. these vehicles were not equipped with load carrying capacity modification labels which fails to conform with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, "tire selection and rims." Consequence: incorrect load carrying capacity modification labels could result in the vehicle being overloaded, increasing the risk of a crash. Action: toyota will notify owners and provide them with a new, accurate label to be installed over the inaccurate label free of charge. the safety recall began on august 18, 2009. owners may contact toyota at 1-888-270-9371.

2008 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER Manufactured between: 05/31/2007 and 03/07/2008 Defect: toyota is recalling 90,189 my 2008 highlander and highlander hybrid passenger vehicles equipped with a third row seat. these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 208, "occupant crash protection." the non-driver designated seating positions (dsp) on these vehicles is equipped with seat belt assemblies that have a feature that converts the retractor from an emergency locking retractor (elr) to an automatic locking retractor (alr). the belts convert to the alr mode after the webbing has been fully withdrawn from the retractor. the system is designed so that as the belt is released into the retractor, the system remains in the alr mode so that a child restraint system (crs) can be tightly secured. Consequence: however, for the two third row dsp's on these vehicles, the alr mode deactivates before the webbing is fully retracted, so that it will not lock when certain rear-facing crs's that have a short seat belt routing path are installed in the vehicle. this can allow the seat belt webbing to spool out during normal driving maneuvers, which could affect the stability of a child restraint installed at those seating positions. as such, this could discourage the use of a child restraint and in the event of a crash, the child may not be adequately protected possibly resulting in injury. Action: dealers will install a newly designed seat belt component free of charge. the recall is expected to begin on or about december 18, 2008. owners may contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331.

2008 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID Manufactured between: 09/01/2005 and 05/04/2009 Defect: toyota is recalling 27,080 model year 2005 through 2010 passenger cars built from september 1, 2005 to may 4, 2009. these vehicles were not equipped with load carrying capacity modification labels which fails to conform with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, "tire selection and rims."

2008 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID Manufactured between: 05/31/2007 and 03/07/2008 Defect: toyota is recalling 90,189 my 2008 highlander and highlander hybrid passenger vehicles equipped with a third row seat. these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 208, "occupant crash protection." the non-driver designated seating positions (dsp) on these vehicles is equipped with seat belt assemblies that have a feature that converts the retractor from an emergency locking retractor (elr) to an automatic locking retractor (alr). the belts convert to the alr mode after the webbing has been fully withdrawn from the retractor. the system is designed so that as the belt is released into the retractor, the system remains in the alr mode so that a child restraint system (crs) can be tightly secured. Consequence: however, for the two third row dsp's on these vehicles, the alr mode deactivates before the webbing is fully retracted, so that it will not lock when certain rear-facing crs's that have a short seat belt routing path are installed in the vehicle. this can allow the seat belt webbing to spool out during normal driving maneuvers, which could affect the stability of a child restraint installed at those seating positions. as such, this could discourage the use of a child restraint and in the event of a crash, the child may not be adequately protected possibly resulting in injury. Action: dealers will install a newly designed seat belt component free of charge. the recall is expected to begin on or about december 18, 2008. owners may contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
