Toyota Recalls 393K Trucks Over Rearview Camera Failures

Toyota has initiated a recall of nearly 400,000 vehicles due to a software defect affecting the rearview camera system—a critical safety component. The malfunction prevents the camera image from displaying when the vehicle is in reverse, potentially increasing the risk of collisions. This issue impacts 2022‑2025 Toyota Tundras (including hybrids) and 2023‑2025 Sequoia hybrids.

For insurance claims adjusters, this recall may correlate with a spike in low-speed collision claims involving these models, particularly property damage or parking lot incidents. It’s a reminder to stay informed about vehicle safety recalls that could influence liability assessments, subrogation potential, or fraud evaluation.

Toyota dealerships will perform the software update free of charge, with owner notifications beginning November 16. Adjusters handling auto claims should consider checking for open recalls when evaluating accident circumstances involving affected models. These kinds of defects can complicate fault analysis or repair timelines.
