In the event your dealership receives a notice for a vehicle that was sold prior to the Safety Recall announcement, it is the dealership’s responsibility to forward the owner letter to the customer who purchased the vehicle.
Please note that only owners of the covered vehicles will be notified. If you are contacted by an owner who has not yet received a notification, please verify eligibility by confirming through TIS prior to performing repairs. Dealers should perform the repair as outlined in the Technical Instructions found on TIS.

Toyota actualmente está preparando el remedio. El remedio, cuando esté disponible, involucrará el reemplazó de las unidades de control de las luces principales del lado del conductor y del lado del pasajero SIN CARGO para usted.
Si observa que la iluminación de una luz principal está afectada o que su señal de dirección no funciona adecuadamente, es posible que su vehículo esté experimentando esta condición. Aparecerá un mensaje en el conjunto de instrumentos y podría percibir un sonido de clic más rápido de lo que se escucha usualmente al activar la señal de dirección.
Si cree que su vehículo experimenta alguno de los problemas descritos anteriormente, visite su concesionario Toyota autorizado local. Toyota
sugiere que conduzca con cuidado su vehículo al concesionario en horario de día, ya que es posible que las luces principales y las señales de dirección no funcionen.
Ejemplo de mensaje mostrado en el conjunto de instrumentos
Nota: Este ejemplo describe el mensaje que se muestra si el problema afecta la luz principal izquierda. El mensaje real mostrado por su vehículo puede ser diferente, dependiendo de las luces principales que estén afectadas.
¿Qué pasa si usted no es el propietario o el operador de este vehículo?
Si usted es arrendador del vehículo, la Ley Federal exige que toda persona que arrienda vehículos y reciba este aviso de retiro de seguridad envíe una copia de este al arrendatario dentro de los diez días.

STOP! DO NOT SELL NEW VEHICLES IN DEALER INVENTORY.Refer to Dealer Inventory Procedures section for more details. | ![]() |
On November 27, 2019, BMW filed a Defect Information Report (DIR) with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) informing the agency of its intent to conduct a voluntary Safety Recall on certain 2020 model year Supra vehicles.
Condition
Certain left and/or right headlamp(s) may experience a loss of function. If a loss of function to the left and/or right headlamp occurred, this would affect headlamp illumination and turn-signal function. Driving without a turn signal or with both headlamps disabled could increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Toyota is currently preparing the remedy. The remedy, when available, will involve replacing the affected headlamp control unit FREE OF CHARGE.
Covered Vehicles
There are approximately 180 vehicles covered by this Safety Recall. Also, there were no vehicles distributed to Puerto Rico covered by this Safety Recall.
Owner Letter Mailing Date
Toyota will notify owners by late January 2020.
Toyota makes significant effort to obtain current customer name and address information from each state through industry resources when mailing owner letters. In the event your dealership receives a notice for a vehicle that was sold prior to the Safety Recall announcement, it is the dealership’s responsibility to forward the owner letter to the customer who purchased the vehicle.
Please note that only owners of the covered vehicles will be notified. If you are contacted by an owner who has not yet received a notification, please verify eligibility by confirming through TIS.
Dealer Inventory Procedures
New Vehicles in Dealership Inventory
There are approximately 60 vehicles in new dealer inventory as of November 27, 2019.
![]() | Under Title 49, Section 30112 of the United States Code, a dealer cannot sell, offer for sale, or introduce or deliver for introduction in interstate commerce a new motor vehicle when it is aware that the vehicle does not comply with an applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard or contains a defect related to motor vehicle safety. Further, 49 Code of Federal Regulations §577.13 requires us to provide the following advisory: It is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a new motor vehicle or any new or used item of motor vehicle equipment (including a tire) covered by this notification under a sale or lease until the defect or noncompliance is remedied.
Toyota |
Vehicle Safety Recall completion should always be verified through TIS. We request your assistance to ensure involved vehicles are identified and not delivered prior to performing the remedy. |
NOTE:
- New vehicles in dealer inventory subject to a Safety Recall must be remedied before delivery into commerce under a sale or lease. Dealer-to-dealer trades as well as vehicle sales between dealers should not be made until a vehicle is remedied.
- Dealers can identify if any of their new and used inventory has any open campaigns in the Vehicle Inventory Summary available in Dealer Daily (Non SET and GST dealers: https://dealerdaily.toyota.com/). The Vehicle Inventory Summary may take up to 4 hours to populate information for newly launched campaigns.
Inspection Reminder Mirror Hang Tags for Covered Vehicles in New Dealer Stock
To easily recognize vehicles involved in this Safety Recall, each dealership should utilize Inspection Reminder Hang Tags. Inside the vehicle’s glove box are stickers containing the VIN. Apply one of these stickers to the hang tag and install the hang tag in the vehicle. A sample copy of the Inspection Reminder Hang Tag has been included for your reference.
Part Number | Description | Quantity |
00411-140003 | Inspection Mirror Hang Tag | 25 Per Pack |
NOTE: Dealerships can order hang tags from the Material Distribution Center (MDC).
Pre-Owned Vehicles in Dealer Inventory
Toyota typically requests that dealers NOT deliver any pre-owned vehicles in dealer inventory that are covered by a Safety Recall unless the defect has been remedied. In this case, until remedy parts are available, delivery of a pre-owned vehicle is acceptable if disclosed to the customer that the vehicle is involved in this Safety Recall and that the remedy is currently being prepared by Toyota
.
Toyota expects dealers to use the attached Customer Contact and Vehicle Disclosure Form to obtain vehicle buyer information. Dealers are expected to provide a copy of the completed form, along with the most current FAQ, to the vehicle buyer. Toyota
and the dealer may use this information to contact the customer when the remedy becomes available.
Keep the completed form on file at the dealership and send a copy to quality_compliance@toyota.com. In the subject line of the email, state “Disclosure Form 19TA20” and include the VIN.
NOTE: Dealers can identify if any of their new and used inventory has any open campaigns in the Vehicle Inventory Summary available in Dealer Daily (Non SET and GST dealers: https://dealerdaily.toyota.com/ ). The Vehicle Inventory Summary may take up to 4 hours to populate information for newly launched campaigns.
Toyota Certified Used Vehicle (TCUV)
The TCUV policy prohibits the certification of any vehicle with an outstanding Safety Recall, Special Service Campaign, or Limited Service Campaign. Thus, no affected units are to be designated, sold, or delivered as a TCUV until all applicable Safety Recalls, Special Service Campaigns, and Limited Service Campaigns have been completed on that vehicle.
Toyota Rent-A-Car (TRAC) & Service Loaners
Toyota requests that dealers remove all TRAC and Service Loaner vehicles from service that are covered by a Safety Recall unless the defect has been remedied.

XII. ADJUST HEADLAMP AIM
HINT: The procedure of the aiming adjustment shown in the repair manual is to be revised in March 2020. Until then, use the following procedure.
DO NOT perform headlight adjustment immediately after lowering the vehicle on the vehicle hoist. In this case, move the vehicle for approx. 15 m on its own wheels before headlight adjustment.
HINT: Description is for left component only. Procedure on the right side is identical.
1. PREPARE VEHICLE FOR HEADLIGHT AIM ADJUSTMENT
a. Vehicle parked on level ground.
b. Check correct adjustment of headlights in relation to engine compartment lid (gap dimensions).
Vehicle Exterior>DOOR / HATCH>HOOD>ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION; 2020 MY Supra (RM100000001JCST)
c. Check tire pressure and correct if necessary.
d. Apply load equivalent to one person on driver’s seat (68 kg, 150 lb).
e. Vehicle with full fuel tank or appropriate additional weight in luggage compartment.
2. PREPARE FOR HEADLIGHT AIMING (Using a headlight aim test machine)
a. Adjust the headlight aim in accordance with the headlight aim test machine instructions.
*a
90°
*b
7.62 m or 3 m (25 ft. or 9.84 ft.)
3. PREPARE VEHICLE FOR HEADLIGHT AIM ADJUSTMENT
a. Prepare the vehicle:
Place the vehicle in a location that is dark enough to clearly observe the cutoff line. The cutoff line is a distinct line, below which light from the headlights can be observed and above which it cannot.
Place the vehicle at a 90° angle to the wall.
22
*a
Center Mark
Create a 7.62 m (25 ft.) distance between the vehicle (center marks of the headlight) and the wall.
Make sure that the vehicle is on a level surface.
Bounce the vehicle up and down to settle the suspension.
A distance of 7.62 m (25 ft.) between the vehicle (center marks of the low beam) and the wall is necessary for proper aim adjustment. If unavailable, secure a distance of exactly 3 m (9.84 ft.) for the check and adjustment. (The target zone will change with the distance, so follow the instructions in the illustration).
b. Prepare a open wall area or piece of thick white paper approximately 2 m (6.56 ft.) (height) x 4 m (13.1 ft.) (width) to use as a screen.
c. Draw a vertical line down the center of the screen (V line).
d. Set the screen as shown in the illustration.
23
HINT:
Stand the screen perpendicular to the ground.
Align the V line on the screen with the center of the vehicle.
*a
V LH Line
*b
V Line
*c
V RH Line
*d
H Line
*e
Ground
e. Draw base lines (H, V LH, and V RH lines) on the screen as shown in the illustration.
*a
Center Mark
HINT:
Mark the headlight assembly center marks on the screen. If the center mark cannot be observed on the headlight, use the center of the headlight LED unit as the center mark.
f. H Line (Headlight height):
Draw a horizontal line across the screen so that it passes through the center marks. The H line should be at the same height as the headlight center marks.
g. V LH Line and V RH Line (Center mark position of (LH) and (RH) headlights):
Draw 2 vertical lines so that they intersect the H line at each center mark (aligned with the center mark of the headlight).
4. INSPECT HEADLIGHT AIMING
a. Start the engine.
24
b. Light switch must be in “low beam/driving light” position (1).
DO NOT carry out the headlight adjustment in the “automatic driving lights control” light switch position (2).
c. Wait 80 seconds after switching on lights. During this time, do not move the vehicle and avoid vibrations.
Wheels must be in the straight–ahead position.
DO NOT move the vehicle and steering wheel during the measuring and adjustment procedures.
d. Cover the headlight on the opposite side to prevent light from the headlight that is not being inspected from affecting the headlight aiming.
DO NOT keep the headlight covered for more than 3 minutes. The headlight lens is made of synthetic resin, which may melt or be damaged due to excessive heat.
e. Check if the cutoff line matches the preferred cutoff line in the following illustration.
HINT:
The low beam and high beam headlight are a unit, Adjusting the aim on the low beam to the correct position should also result in the high beam adjustment being correct.
If the alignment distance is 7.62 m (25 ft.):
The low beam cutoff line should be within 101.6 mm (4.00 in.) above or below the H line as well as 101.6 mm (4.00 in.) left or right of the V LH or V RH line (SAE J599).
If the alignment distance is 3 m (9.84 ft.):
The low beam cutoff line should be within 39.9 mm (1.57 in.) above or below the H line as well as 39.9 mm (1.57 in.) left or right of the V LH or V RH line (SAE J599).
If the alignment distance is 7.62 m (25 ft.):
The high beam center of intensity should be within 101.6 mm (4.00 in.) above or below the H line as well as 101.6 mm (4.00 in.) left or right of the V LH or V RH line (SAE J599).
If the alignment distance is 3 m (9.84 ft.):
The high beam center of intensity should be within 39.9 mm (1.57 in.) above or below the H line as well as 39.9 mm (1.57 in.) left or right of the V LH or V RH line (SAE J599).
25
Low Beam:
*A
Alignment distance is 7.62 m
*B
Alignment distance is 3 m
High Beam:
*A
Alignment distance is 7.62 m
*B
Alignment distance is 3 m
26
5. ADJUST HEADLIGHT AIMING (if necessary)
a. Turn both covers (1) above the adjusting screws for the light setting by 90° and remove.
b. Adjust the aim vertically:
The final turn of the aiming screw should be made in the clockwise direction. If the screw is tightened excessively, loosen it and then retighten it, so that the final turn of the screw is in the clockwise direction.
HINT:
Since the low beam light and the high beam light are a unit, if the aim on the low beam is correct, the high beam should also be correct. However, check both beams just to make sure.
When adjusting the vertical axis of the headlight, the horizontal axis will also change. It is necessary to adjust the vertical position first, and then correct the horizontal position.
If it is not possible to correctly adjust headlight aim, check the headlight unit and headlight unit lens installation.
Confirm the direction of rotation of the aiming screw by observing it while it is being adjusted. Due to the position of the screwdriver, the direction of rotation of the adjusting screw can be different than the direction of rotation of the screwdriver being used to adjust it.
c. Adjust the aim of each headlight to the specified range by turning each aiming screw with a screwdriver (1).
d. Adjust the aim horizontally:
The final turn of the aiming screw should be made in the clockwise direction. If the screw is tightened excessively, loosen it and then retighten it, so that the final turn of the screw is in the clockwise direction.
HINT:
Since the low beam light and the high beam light are a unit, if the aim on the low beam is correct, the high beam should also be correct. However, check both beams just to make sure.
27
If it is not possible to correctly adjust headlight aim, check the headlight unit and headlight unit lens installation.
Confirm the direction of rotation of the aiming screw by observing it while it is being adjusted. Due to the position of the screwdriver, the direction of rotation of the adjusting screw can be different than the direction of rotation of the screwdriver being used to adjust it.
e. Adjust the aim of each headlight to the specified range by turning each aiming screw with a screwdriver (2).
f. Install the covers (1) above the adjusting screws for the light setting and turn by 90°.
