New Tundra Special Service Campaign (recall)
For those Tundra owners out there this may be of interest to you:
July 21, 2005
Toyota is launching a voluntary Special Service Campaign with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) involving its Tundra pickups. The term Special Service Campaign allows Toyota to avoid the word recall.
The campaign involves about 2,500 Tundra Access Cab pickup trucks currently in operation in the U.S.
A Front Passenger Occupant Classification System (FPOCS) is installed in certain 2005 model year Tundra Access Cab pickups equipped with front captain's chairs. This system monitors the weight and load on the front passenger seat, as well as the seatbelt buckle switch status, to determine whether to activate or deactivate the front passenger airbag.
A small number of mid-2005 model year Tundra Access Cab vehicles equipped with the optional front captain's chairs may have been manufactured with the incorrect FPOCS indicator light lens, which may not allow the front passenger the ability to verify the status of the front airbag.
Toyota will send owners of the involved vehicles a Special Service Campaign notification via first class mail beginning in early-August. Owners are requested to contact their local Toyota dealer upon receiving their notification for replacement of the FPOCS indicator light lens. Replacement will be done at no charge to the owners of the vehicle.
