Refer to Dealer Inventory Procedures section for more details.

On January 17, 2020, Toyota filed a Defect Information Report (DIR) with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) informing the agency of our intent to conduct a voluntary Safety Recall on certain 2011 – 2019 model year Corolla, 2011 – 2013 model year Matrix, 2012 – 2018 model year Avalon and 2013 – 2018 Avalon Hybrid vehicles.

Condition

The subject vehicles may be equipped with an electronic control unit (ECU) from a specific supplier that is designed to receive signals from crash sensors and deploy the airbags and seat belt pretensioners. The ECU may not have adequate protection against certain electrical noise that can occur in certain crashes, such as severe underride crashes. This can lead to incomplete or nondeployment of the airbags and/or seat belt pretensioners. Airbag and seat belt pretensioners that do not deploy as intended can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

Remedy

Toyota has sufficient parts to begin a phased implementation of the remedy. Any authorized Toyota dealer will, in most cases, install a noise filter between the airbag control module and its wire harness. In some cases, Toyota dealers may inspect the ECU to determine if the noise filter is necessary before installing it. The remedy will be at no cost to vehicle owners. Refer to the table below to determine the remedy status and remedy campaign designation for vehicles involved in this Safety Recall.

Phase	Model / Years	Approximate Total Vehicles	Remedy Status	Remedy Campaign Designation
1	Corolla 2014 – 2019	528,000	Remedy Available*	20TA03
2	Corolla 2011 – 2012	112,000	Remedy Available*	20TA05**
	Corolla 2011 – 2013	616,000	Remedy Available*	20TA03
	Matrix 2011 – 2013	10,200
	Avalon 2012 – 2018	241,900
	Avalon HV 2013 – 2018	63,800
	Corolla 2014 – 2019	1,321,000

*Only a portion of the 2014 – 2019 model year Corolla vehicles covered by this Safety Recall are included in the phase 1 remedy.

**Certain 2011-2012 Corolla vehicles will require an inspection of the ECU to determine if noise filter installation is necessary. These vehicles will be loaded to campaign designation 20TA05. A separate Dealer Letter and Technical Instructions will be available at the time of phase 2 remedy launch.

Covered Vehicles

There are approximately 2,892,900 vehicles covered by this Safety Recall. Approximately 50,000 vehicles involved in this Safety Recall were distributed to Puerto Rico.

Owner Letter Mailing Date

Toyota notified customers involved in phase 1 in mid-March 2020 informing them that the remedy is available. Toyota also mailed an interim owner letter to phase 2 customers beginning early-March 2020. Phase 2 customers will be notified, beginning in late April 2020, that the remedy is now available for their vehicles. Samples of the owner notification letters have been included for your reference.

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 prior to performing repairs. Dealers should perform the repair as outlined in the Technical Instructions found on TIS.

Dealer Inventory Procedures

New Vehicles in Dealership Inventory

There are approximately 33 vehicles in new dealer inventory as of January 21, 2020.

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 reimburses dealers for flooring costs associated with new vehicles held in dealership inventory until the recall remedy becomes available. Toyota provides these flooring reimbursements at 60-day intervals. Toyota reserves the right to withhold or charge-back any flooring reimbursement funds that may have been paid to the dealer if it determines that a new vehicle subject to a safety recall was sold without first being remedied.

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.

Toyota Version Below

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

To ensure customer satisfaction, Toyota requests that dealers complete this Safety Recall on any used vehicles currently in dealer inventory that are covered by this Safety Recall prior to customer delivery. However, if the campaign cannot be completed (for example, due to remedy parts availability), delivery of a covered vehicle is acceptable if disclosed to the customer that the vehicle is involved in a Safety Recall.

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 20TA03” 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.

Ciertos modelo Avalon de año 2012–2018, Ciertos modelo Avalon Hybrid de año 2013–2018
Puede ocurrir que las bolsas de aire y/o los pretensionadores del cinturón de seguridad no se activen o se activen de forma incompleta
Retiro de Seguridad de NHTSA No. 20V-024

Estimado (nombre/apellido del cliente):

Se le envía esta notificación de acuerdo con la Ley Nacional de la oficina de Administración Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico en las Carreteras (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration o NHTSA por sus siglas en inglés). Toyota ha decidido que existe un defecto, que se relaciona con la seguridad de los vehículos de motor en ciertos vehículos modelo Corolla de año 2011–2019, ciertos modelo Matrix de año 2011–2013, ciertos modelo Avalon de año 2012–2018 y ciertos modelo Avalon Hybrid de año 2013–2018.

Usted recibió esta notificación porque nuestros registros, que se basan principalmente en los datos del estado de registro y de título, indican que usted es el propietario actual.

¿Cuál es la condición?

Los vehículos sujetos están equipados con una unidad de control electrónica (ECU) de un proveedor específico que está diseñada para recibir señales de los sensores de colisión y activar las bolsas de aire y los pretensionadores de los cinturones de seguridad. La ECU pudiera no tener la protección adecuada contra cierto ruido eléctrico que pudiera ocurrir en ciertas colisiones, tales como en colisiones severos donde los automóviles embisten por atrás o por debajo a un camión de carga o un vehículo de gran tamaño. Esto puede conllevar a que las bolsas de aire y/o los pretensionadores del cinturón de seguridad no se activen o se activen de forma incompleta. La bolsa de aire y los pretensionadores de los cinturones de seguridad que no se activen como está planeado puede aumentar el riesgo de una lesión en una colisión.

¿Qué Debe Hacer?

Comuníquese con cualquier concesionario Toyota autorizado para programar una cita para que realicen el remedio tan pronto como sea posible. El remedio requerirá que se instale un nuevo repuesto. Le recomendamos que se comunique con su concesionario para programar una cita con anticipación para confirmar la disponibilidad de las piezas y reducir al mínimo sus inconvenientes.

Su concesionario Toyota local responderá con gusto todas sus preguntas.

Condition

The subject vehicles may be equipped with an electronic control unit (ECU) from a specific supplier designed to receive signals from crash sensors and deploy the airbags and seat belt pretensioners. The ECU may not have adequate protection against certain electrical noise that can occur in certain crashes, such as severe underride crashes. This can lead to incomplete or nondeployment of the airbags and/or seat belt pretensioners. Airbag non-deployment and/or lack of seat belt pretensioner operation can increase the risk or severity of injury in a crash.

Remedy

Toyota is currently preparing the remedy. When the remedy becomes available, in most cases, Toyota dealers will install a noise filter between the airbag control module and its wire harness. In some cases, Toyota dealers may inspect the ECU to determine if the noise filter is necessary before installing it. The remedy will be at no cost to vehicle owners.

Covered Vehicles

There are approximately 2,892,900 vehicles covered by this Safety Recall. Approximately 50,000 vehicles involved in this Safety Recall were distributed to Puerto Rico.

Owner Letter Mailing Date

Toyota will notify owners by mid-March 2020.

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.

Dealer Inventory Procedures

Note:

(1) Although the involved vehicles are within the above production period range, not all vehicles in this range were sold in the U.S.

(2) Other Toyota or Lexus vehicles sold in the U.S. are equipped with an SRS ECU of a different design, not containing the DS84 ASIC, or are equipped with an SRS ECU containing the DS84 ASIC, but, due to different body construction and other factors, Toyota believes at this time that an occurrence of a sufficient negative transient at a timing that can affect airbag deployment in a crash is unlikely.

Total Number of Vehicles Potentially Involved:

Toyota Avalon:	241,845
Toyota Avalon HV:	63,785
Toyota Corolla:	2,576,108
Toyota Corolla Matrix:	10,238
Total:	2,891,976

Percentage of Vehicles Estimated to Actually Contain the Defect:

Toyota is unable to provide an estimate. Although the involved vehicles potentially are equipped with the subject ECU, damage to the application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) that will affect airbag deployment can occur only under a very narrow set of factors and circumstances in a crash that Toyota believes to be rare. However, Toyota is unable to estimate the likelihood for this to occur in the real world.

Description of Problem:

The subject vehicles may be equipped with an airbag control module for the supplemental restraint system (SRS ECU) manufactured by ZF-TRW. The ECU receives signals from crash sensors and deploys the airbags and seat belt pretensioners in accordance with design specifications. This ECU contains a model DS84 application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) which controls the communication of the crash sensor signals, firing commands (i.e., when to deploy the airbag(s) and/or pretensioners), and fault information (e.g., diagnostic trouble codes).

This ASIC does not have sufficient protection against negative electrical transients that can be generated in certain severe crashes, such as an underride frontal crash where there is a large engine compartment intrusion before a significant deceleration. In these cases, the crash sensor and other powered wiring can be damaged and shorted so as to create a negative electrical transient of sufficient strength and duration to damage the ASIC before the deployment signal is received in the SRS ECU. This can lead to incomplete or nondeployment of the airbags and/or pretensioners. In model year 2014-2019 Corollas, one potential mechanism contributing to the short circuit appears to be the headlight mounting bracket engagement with the crash sensor wiring along with damage to powered wiring. In the other involved vehicles, the mechanism which could create a sufficient negative electrical transient in a crash is not fully understood and is under investigation. Airbag non-deployment and/or lack of pretensioner operation can increase the risk or severity of injury in a crash.

Chronology of Principal Events:

2016 – Early May 2018

In early 2016, ZF-TRW met with Toyota to review a presentation it had made to NHTSA about SRS ECUs supplied to other manufacturers containing the DS84 ASIC where the ASIC sustained Electrical Overstress (EOS) damage. ZF-TRW indicated that it was not aware of such an issue with ECUs supplied to Toyota.

In September 2016, FCA filed a Part 573 report with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) describing that certain vehicles may experience a loss of airbag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability in certain crash events due to a shorting condition resulting in a negative voltage transient that travels to the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) produced by ZF-TRW.

Thereafter, ZF-TRW contacted Toyota and shared information regarding FCA’s recall filing, explaining that it was related to the wire harness routing in certain FCA vehicle models and that Toyota vehicles were not affected.

In February 2018, Hyundai filed a Part 573 report with NHTSA concerning ZF-TRW SRS ECUs in certain of its vehicles. Hyundai later expanded the recall to include additional vehicles that did not contain certain diodes that provide increased circuit protection against EOS.

Subsequently, NHTSA contacted Toyota inquiring about the use of ZF-TRW SRS ECUs equipped with the DS84 ASIC and any field experience in Toyota vehicles. In response, Toyota conducted a U.S. field data review, and reported to NHTSA that no U.S. cases were found at that time based on Toyota’s understanding of the issues.

Although ZF-TRW had previously explained to Toyota that Toyota vehicles were not affected by the previous recalls, Toyota continued communication with ZF-TRW to understand their design and development of the SRS ECU, the use of the DS84 ASIC, and the differences between ECUs supplied to Toyota and those supplied to other OEMs. ZF-TRW stated that it had not found evidence to link non-deployments to electrical overstress and that electrical overstress with a non-deployment is vehicle dependent. ZF-TRW also stated that the Toyota ECUs had certain diodes (Schottky diodes) that provided incremental protection against negative transients. They also advised Toyota that they were not aware of any nondeployments with observed EOS involving a customer which was provided ECUs containing DS84 ASIC with Schottky diodes.

May 2018 – December 2018

On May 30, 2018 Toyota was contacted by the California Highway Patrol (CHP) seeking assistance regarding how to read/download the EDR from a 2018 Toyota Corolla SRS ECU which had been involved in a severe frontal collision in which no airbags had deployed. The CHP had removed the SRS ECU from the vehicle, and multiple unsuccessful attempts were made by both CHP and Toyota to download the EDR data. ZF-TRW was sent the ECU for further evaluation, and they advised Toyota that no data could be obtained from it, although ZFTRW confirmed damage consistent with EOS. This was further discussed with NHTSA representatives, who were present for ZF-TRW’s inspection.

On June 1, 2018, Kia filed a Part 573 report with NHTSA concerning ZF-TRW SRS ECUs in certain of its vehicles. Subsequently, at the request of NHTSA, ZF-TRW filed a Part 573 report related to the prior Hyundai recall and the latest Kia recall. According to ZF-TRW’s report, “the ASIC in the ACUs may experience EOS damage caused by negative transient voltages generated in the vehicle environment that are outside the vehicle manufacturer’s specification during particular front impact events”. Further, the Part 573 report states, “this submission does not cover vehicles included in 16V-668 [the 2016 FCA recall]. The ZF component referenced in that recall [the 2016 FCA recall] has design differences, and the root cause in that recall was attributed in part to specific vehicle conditions”.

In early October 2018, Toyota requested ZF-TRW to conduct transient testing on ECUs that did not contain the DS84 ASIC to compare to previous test data conducted by ZF-TRW on ECUs equipped with the DS84 ASIC in order to understand the difference in the ECUs. Toyota continued discussions with ZF-TRW in order to understand how negative transients could be created and can potentially flow within the electrical system.

In late November through December 2018, Toyota continued technical discussions with ZFTRW on how to create a negative transient and how to set up and conduct a bench test for such a transient. ZF-TRW provided electrical diagram information and test set up information to help Toyota understand the bench testing set up. Toyota also further inquired of ZF-TRW as to certain changes previously made by ZF-TRW in its internal development standard for SRS ECUs.

January 2019 – March 2019

In late January 2019 Toyota met with ZF-TRW to review the DS84 EOS issue. During that meeting, Toyota was advised that ZF-TRW had previously changed certain specifications for the ECU that were not before shared with Toyota. Toyota continued discussions with ZF-TRW to understand more about the specification changes but was unable to obtain further information.

Toyota began recovering in-use parts across all of the models and model years of vehicles which contain the DS84 ASIC in which no alleged failure had occurred to investigate the actual field condition of the electrical strength of the airbag ECUs through bench testing. Strength testing then began in order to attempt to understand the conditions under which the ECU might reset (i.e., shutdown). Additionally, a vehicle wiring architecture study was begun.

In March Toyota met with NHTSA to provide the Agency with information about the progress of its investigation and future activities.

April 2019 – May 2019

In April, NHTSA opened EA19-001 by expanding PE18-003(Hyundai/Kia) to include ZF-TRW, FCA, Honda, Mitsubishi, and Toyota. Toyota continued to monitor and look for field incidents that could relate to this issue. It conducted vehicle inspections itself, and in some cases, together with representatives of ZF-TRW and NHTSA. By early May, over 200 in-use ECUs had been recovered. Strength and stress testing was performed on many of the recovered parts, but Toyota did not have sufficient technical information to understand whether these test results could be representative of any potential real world incidents. At the end of May, Toyota provided an update to NHTSA about this testing. It also discussed upcoming testing that was being conducted by a testing contractor on behalf of ZF-TRW to be attended by Toyota and NHTSA representatives. In addition to electrical testing, three crash tests were conducted. Airbags deployed in all tests, although ZF-TRW informed Toyota after one test that an ECU reset had occurred.

June 2019 – September 2019

In early June, ZF-TRW conducted three additional crash tests. In both tests all the airbags deployed, and no ECU resets occurred. In late June, Toyota advised the Agency on the status of its investigation and the test data obtained thus far. In addition, Toyota provided an update regarding the status of its field investigations.

On July 16, Toyota received an Information Request from the Agency in connection with EA19001. An initial response was provided on August 30, 2019, with additional supplements thereafter.

Toyota conducted three crash tests in September. In these tests, all of the airbags deployed, no ECU resets occurred, and no transients were detected.

October 2019 – January 2020

Toyota provided NHTSA an update of the testing that had been conducted to date. At this time Toyota had been unable to duplicate any of the bench testing or static vehicle testing conditions in a real-world crash scenario. Toyota advised the Agency that the investigation would be continued to evaluate other test methods, including other crash test modes in an attempt to understand the conditions that may contribute to a reset of the ECU.

In mid-October Toyota conducted an additional crash test. All of the airbags deployed, and Toyota was able to communicate with and retrieve the EDR data from the SRS ECU. In addition, no electrical transients were detected, and no ECU resets occurred even though sensor communication was lost during the test. The results of the additional crash testing were discussed with NHTSA. Additionally, Toyota continued to monitor and investigate field incidents that could relate to this issue.

In early December 2019, Toyota conducted three additional crash tests. The crash tests were conducted using a more severe underride condition to more closely match certain potential field cases. The hypothesis was that, while prior testing was unable to duplicate the condition, this more severe type of crash condition might be able to create a sufficient negative transient that theoretically could affect the ECU prior to the airbag deployment command. In all three tests, all of the airbags deployed, and Toyota was able to communicate with and retrieve the EDR data from the SRS ECU.

As these tests were again unable to duplicate any of the negative transients or resets that were observed during bench testing and static vehicle testing, Toyota continued to explore crash modes that could increase the severity of the damage to the vehicle. In mid-December, Toyota conducted two additional crash tests that closely matched the previous tests, although certain test parameters were changed to further increase the severity of the underride condition. In the first test the passenger side seat cushion airbag did not deploy and the second stage for the frontal airbags also appeared to have not deployed. Toyota was unable to communicate with the SRS ECU and retrieve the EDR data. In the second test the airbags did not deploy, and no data were recorded in the EDR.

Toyota discussed the results of the most recent crash tests with NHTSA. At this time, Toyota was still investigating the presence of any transients and/or ECU resets from these crash tests. In early January, Toyota investigated the ECU from one of the tested vehicles and confirmed that there was damage to the DS84 ASIC.

Toyota also considered the performance of the DS84 ASIC in vehicles of different size and construction, such as passenger cars versus trucks/SUVs. Due to size, body construction, and other factors in trucks and SUVs, Toyota believes at this time that an occurrence of a negative transient in timing to affect airbag deployment is unlikely.

January 15, 2020

Based on the results of the above investigation, Toyota decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall campaign for the vehicles identified above.

As of January 13, 2020 based on a diligent review of records, Toyota’s best engineering judgement is that there are 15 Toyota Field Technical Reports and no warranty claims that have been received from U.S. sources that relate or may relate to this condition and which were considered in the decision to submit this report. In some cases, multiple reports were completed for one potential incident.

Description of Corrective Repair Action:

All known owners of the subject vehicles will be notified by first class mail to return their vehicles to a Toyota dealer. In most cases, the dealers will install a noise filter between the airbag control module and its wire harness. In some cases, Toyota may inspect the ECU to determine if the noise filter is necessary before installing it.

Reimbursement Plan for pre-notification remedies

The owner letter will instruct vehicle owners who have paid to have this condition remedied prior to this campaign to seek reimbursement pursuant to Toyota’s General Reimbursement Plan.

Recall Schedule:

Notifications to owners of the affected vehicles will occur by March 17, 2020. A copy of the draft owner notification will be submitted as soon as it is available.

Distributor/Dealer Notification Schedule:

Notifications to distributors/dealers will be sent on January 21, 2020. Copies of dealer communications will be submitted as they are issued.

Note: (1) Although the involved vehicles are within the above production period range, not all vehicles in this range were sold in the U.S.
(2) Other Toyota or Lexus vehicles sold in the U.S. are equipped with an SRS ECU of a different design, not containing the DS84 ASIC, or are equipped with an SRS ECU containing the DS84 ASIC, but, due to different body construction and other factors, Toyota believes at this time that an occurrence of a sufficient negative transient at a timing that can affect airbag deployment in a crash is unlikely.
3. Total Number of Vehicles Potentially Involved:
Toyota Avalon : 241,845
Toyota Avalon HV : 63,785
Toyota Corolla : 2,576,108
Toyota Corolla Matrix : 10,238
Total : 2,891,976
4. Percentage of Vehicles Estimated to Actually Contain the Defect:
Toyota is unable to provide an estimate. Although the involved vehicles potentially are equipped with the subject ECU, damage to the application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) that will affect airbag deployment can occur only under a very narrow set of factors and circumstances in a crash that Toyota believes to be rare. However, Toyota is unable to estimate the likelihood for this to occur in the real world.
5. Description of Problem:
The subject vehicles may be equipped with an airbag control module for the supplemental restraint system (SRS ECU) manufactured by ZF-TRW. The ECU receives signals from crash sensors and deploys the airbags and seat belt pretensioners in accordance with design specifications. This ECU contains a model DS84 application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) which controls the communication of the crash sensor signals, firing commands (i.e., when to deploy the airbag(s) and/or pretensioners), and fault information (e.g., diagnostic trouble codes).
This ASIC does not have sufficient protection against negative electrical transients that can be generated in certain severe crashes, such as an underride frontal crash where there is a large engine compartment intrusion before a significant deceleration. In these cases, the crash sensor and other
powered wiring can be damaged and shorted so as to create a negative electrical transient of sufficient strength and duration to damage the ASIC before the deployment signal is received in the SRS ECU. This can lead to incomplete or nondeployment of the airbags and/or pretensioners. In model year 2014-2019 Corollas, one potential mechanism contributing to the short circuit appears to be the headlight mounting bracket engagement with the crash sensor wiring along with damage to powered wiring. In the other involved vehicles, the mechanism which could create a sufficient negative electrical transient in a crash is not fully understood and is under investigation. Airbag non-deployment and/or lack of pretensioner operation can increase the risk or severity of injury in a crash.
6. Chronology of Principal Events:
2016 – Early May 2018
In early 2016, ZF-TRW met with Toyota to review a presentation it had made to NHTSA about SRS ECUs supplied to other manufacturers containing the DS84 ASIC where the ASIC sustained Electrical Overstress (EOS) damage. ZF-TRW indicated that it was not aware of such an issue with ECUs supplied to Toyota.
In September 2016, FCA filed a Part 573 report with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) describing that certain vehicles may experience a loss of airbag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability in certain crash events due to a shorting condition resulting in a negative voltage transient that travels to the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) produced by ZF-TRW.
Thereafter, ZF-TRW contacted Toyota and shared information regarding FCA’s recall filing, explaining that it was related to the wire harness routing in certain FCA vehicle models and that Toyota vehicles were not affected.
In February 2018, Hyundai filed a Part 573 report with NHTSA concerning ZF-TRW SRS ECUs in certain of its vehicles. Hyundai later expanded the recall to include additional vehicles that did not contain certain diodes that provide increased circuit protection against EOS.
Subsequently, NHTSA contacted Toyota inquiring about the use of ZF-TRW SRS ECUs equipped with the DS84 ASIC and any field experience in Toyota vehicles. In response, Toyota conducted a U.S. field data review, and reported to NHTSA that no U.S. cases were found at that time based on Toyota’s understanding of the issues.
Although ZF-TRW had previously explained to Toyota that Toyota vehicles were not affected by the previous recalls, Toyota continued communication with ZF-TRW to understand their design and development of the SRS ECU, the use of the DS84 ASIC, and the differences between ECUs supplied to Toyota and those supplied to other OEMs. ZF-TRW stated that it had not found evidence to link non-deployments to electrical overstress and that electrical overstress with a non-deployment is vehicle dependent. ZF-TRW also stated that the Toyota ECUs had certain diodes (Schottky diodes) that provided incremental protection against negative transients. They also advised Toyota that they were not aware of any non-deployments with observed EOS involving a customer which was provided ECUs containing DS84 ASIC with Schottky diodes.
May 2018 – December 2018
On May 30, 2018 Toyota was contacted by the California Highway Patrol (CHP) seeking assistance regarding how to read/download the EDR from a 2018 Toyota Corolla SRS ECU which had been involved in a severe frontal collision in which no airbags had deployed. The CHP had removed the SRS ECU from the vehicle, and multiple unsuccessful attempts were made by both CHP and Toyota to download the EDR data. ZF-TRW was sent the ECU for further evaluation, and they advised Toyota that no data could be obtained from it, although ZF-TRW confirmed damage consistent with EOS. This was further discussed with NHTSA representatives, who were present for ZF-TRW’s inspection.
On June 1, 2018, Kia filed a Part 573 report with NHTSA concerning ZF-TRW SRS ECUs in certain of its vehicles. Subsequently, at the request of NHTSA, ZF-TRW filed a Part 573 report related to the prior Hyundai recall and the latest Kia recall. According to ZF-TRW’s report, “the ASIC in the ACUs may experience EOS damage caused by negative transient voltages generated in the vehicle environment that are outside the vehicle manufacturer’s specification during particular front impact events”. Further, the Part 573 report states, “this submission does not cover vehicles included in 16V-668 [the 2016 FCA recall]. The ZF component referenced in that recall [the 2016 FCA recall] has design differences, and the root cause in that recall was attributed in part to specific vehicle conditions”.
In early October 2018, Toyota requested ZF-TRW to conduct transient testing on ECUs that did not contain the DS84 ASIC to compare to previous test data conducted by ZF-TRW on ECUs equipped with the DS84 ASIC in order to understand the difference in the ECUs. Toyota continued discussions with ZF-TRW in order to understand how negative transients could be created and can potentially flow within the electrical system.
In late November through December 2018, Toyota continued technical discussions with ZF-TRW on how to create a negative transient and how to set up and conduct a bench test for such a transient. ZF-TRW provided electrical diagram information and test set up information to help Toyota understand the bench testing set up. Toyota also further inquired of ZF-TRW as to certain changes previously made by ZF-TRW in its internal development standard for SRS ECUs.
January 2019 – March 2019
In late January 2019 Toyota met with ZF-TRW to review the DS84 EOS issue. During that meeting, Toyota was advised that ZF-TRW had previously changed certain specifications for the ECU that were not before shared with Toyota. Toyota continued discussions with ZF-TRW to understand more about the specification changes but was unable to obtain further information.
Toyota began recovering in-use parts across all of the models and model years of vehicles which contain the DS84 ASIC in which no alleged failure had occurred to investigate the actual field condition of the electrical strength of the airbag ECUs through bench testing. Strength testing then began in order to attempt to understand the conditions under which the ECU might reset (i.e., shutdown). Additionally, a vehicle wiring architecture study was begun.
In March Toyota met with NHTSA to provide the Agency with information about the progress of its investigation and future activities.
April 2019 – May 2019
In April, NHTSA opened EA19-001 by expanding PE18-003(Hyundai/Kia) to include ZF-TRW, FCA, Honda, Mitsubishi, and Toyota. Toyota continued to monitor and look for field incidents that could relate to this issue. It conducted vehicle inspections itself, and in some cases, together with representatives of ZF-TRW and NHTSA. By early May, over 200 in-use ECUs had been recovered. Strength and stress testing was performed on many of the recovered parts, but Toyota did not have sufficient technical information to understand whether these test results could be representative of any potential real world incidents. At the end of May, Toyota provided an update to NHTSA about this testing. It also discussed upcoming testing that was being conducted by a testing contractor on behalf of ZF-TRW to be attended by Toyota and NHTSA representatives. In addition to electrical testing, three crash tests were conducted. Airbags deployed in all tests, although ZF-TRW informed Toyota after one test that an ECU reset had occurred.
June 2019 – September 2019
In early June, ZF-TRW conducted three additional crash tests. In both tests all the airbags deployed, and no ECU resets occurred. In late June, Toyota advised the Agency on the status of its investigation and the test data obtained thus far. In addition, Toyota provided an update regarding the status of its field investigations.
On July 16, Toyota received an Information Request from the Agency in connection with EA19-001. An initial response was provided on August 30, 2019, with additional supplements thereafter.
Toyota conducted three crash tests in September. In these tests, all of the airbags deployed, no ECU resets occurred, and no transients were detected.
October 2019 – January 2020
Toyota provided NHTSA an update of the testing that had been conducted to date. At this time Toyota had been unable to duplicate any of the bench testing or static vehicle testing conditions in a real-world crash scenario. Toyota advised the Agency that the investigation would be continued to evaluate other test methods, including other crash test modes in an attempt to understand the conditions that may contribute to a reset of the ECU.
In mid-October Toyota conducted an additional crash test. All of the airbags deployed, and Toyota was able to communicate with and retrieve the EDR data from the SRS ECU. In addition, no electrical transients were detected, and no ECU resets occurred even though sensor communication was lost during the test. The results of the additional crash testing were discussed with NHTSA. Additionally, Toyota continued to monitor and investigate field incidents that could relate to this issue.
In early December 2019, Toyota conducted three additional crash tests. The crash tests were conducted using a more severe underride condition to more closely match certain potential field cases. The hypothesis was that, while prior testing was unable to duplicate the condition, this more severe type of crash condition might be able to create a sufficient negative transient that theoretically could affect the ECU prior to the airbag deployment command. In all three tests, all of the airbags deployed, and Toyota was able to communicate with and retrieve the EDR data from the SRS ECU.
As these tests were again unable to duplicate any of the negative transients or resets that were observed during bench testing and static vehicle testing, Toyota continued to explore crash modes that could increase the severity of the damage to the vehicle. In mid-December, Toyota conducted two additional crash tests that closely matched the previous tests, although certain test parameters were changed to further increase the severity of the underride condition. In the first test the passenger side seat cushion airbag did not deploy and the second stage for the frontal airbags also appeared to have not deployed. Toyota was unable to communicate with the SRS ECU and retrieve the EDR data. In the second test the airbags did not deploy, and no data were recorded in the EDR.
Toyota discussed the results of the most recent crash tests with NHTSA. At this time, Toyota was still investigating the presence of any transients and/or ECU resets from these crash tests.
In early January, Toyota investigated the ECU from one of the tested vehicles and confirmed that there was damage to the DS84 ASIC.
Toyota also considered the performance of the DS84 ASIC in vehicles of different size and construction, such as passenger cars versus trucks/SUVs. Due to size, body construction, and other factors in trucks and SUVs, Toyota believes at this time that an occurrence of a negative transient in timing to affect airbag deployment is unlikely.
January 15, 2020
Based on the results of the above investigation, Toyota decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall campaign for the vehicles identified above.
As of January 13, 2020 based on a diligent review of records, Toyota’s best engineering judgement is that there are 15 Toyota Field Technical Reports and no warranty claims that have been received from U.S. sources that relate or may relate to this condition and which were considered in the decision to submit this report. In some cases, multiple reports were completed for one potential incident.
7. Description of Corrective Repair Action:
All known owners of the subject vehicles will be notified by first class mail to return their vehicles to a Toyota dealer. In most cases, the dealers will install a noise filter between the airbag control module and its wire harness. In some cases, Toyota may inspect the ECU to determine if the noise filter is necessary before installing it.
Reimbursement Plan for pre-notification remedies
The owner letter will instruct vehicle owners who have paid to have this condition remedied prior to this campaign to seek reimbursement pursuant to Toyota’s General Reimbursement Plan.
8. Recall Schedule:
Notifications to owners of the affected vehicles will occur by March 17, 2020. A copy of the draft owner notification will be submitted as soon as it is available.
9. Distributor/Dealer Notification Schedule:
Notifications to distributors/dealers will be sent on January 21, 2020. Copies of dealer communications will be submitted as they are issued.
10. Manufacturer’s Campaign Number:
[Interim / Remedy] 20TB03 / 20TA03

1 Associated Investigation

Air Bag ACU Electrical Overstress
NHTSA ID: EA19001
Dated opened: April 19, 2019

The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) is expanding the investigation to include the equipment supplier and vehicle manufacturers (OEMs) using this unit. The investigation focuses on ACUs manufactured by TRW, now ZF-TRW (ZF) , the Tier-one supplier to Hyundai and Kia and the other affected OEMs. The ACU senses a vehicle crash to determine whether air bag deployment is required, and if so, deploys the appropriate air bags and other supplemental restraints. ZF supplied subject ACUs to six OEMs: FCA, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mitsubishi and Toyota.

Internal to the ACU is an electronic component (an application specific integrated circuit, or ASIC) that monitors signals from crash sensors. A failure of the ASIC may prevent deployment of the required air bags and devices, or may otherwise affect the proper operation of the ACU. The ACU is located in the passenger compartment, and electrical wiring connects the ASIC to sensors located at the front of the vehicle. ODI’s current understanding is that a crash event may, in and of itself, produce harmful signals on the sensor wiring capable of damaging the ASIC, although the probability of this occurring appears to be low. While the ACU incorporates electrical circuitry intended to protect the ASIC from harmful signals, the level and effectiveness of the protective circuitry varies by OEM customer.

During PE18-003, Hyundai and Kia filed recalls (18V-137 and 18V-363 respectively) to address a defect that could result in ACU disablement and non-deployments. According to the filings, the disablement occurs in certain types of frontal crash events. Both filings discussed a condition known as electrical overstress (EOS) that affected the subject ASIC and was likely caused by electrical signals that entered the ACU via sensor wiring. The recalled vehicles used ACUs that had the lowest levels of ASIC protection while non-recalled Hyundai and Kia products using subject ACUs had higher levels of protection. ODI has not identified any EOS failures in the non-recalled Kia and Hyundai populations.

In September 2016, FCA filed recall 16V-668 for certain model year (MY) 2010 to 2014 Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep products also manufactured with the subject ACU. In that filing, FCA also discussed an EOS condition that resulted in a failure of the subject ASIC, which caused air bag non-deployment. FCA noted that the defect condition had only been observed in vehicles equipped with sensor harnessing routed across the front of the vehicle. Other FCA vehicles that also used the subject ACU, but not the cross-car harnessing, had not experienced EOS failures, despite similar time in service. The recalled FCA vehicles used a mid-level form of ASIC protection. Other FCA vehicles that did not use cross car wiring, or used higher levels of ASIC protection, have not been recalled. ODI has not identified any EOS failures in the non-recalled FCA population.

Recently, ODI has identified two substantial frontal crash events (one fatal) involving Toyota products where EOS is suspected as the likely cause of the non-deployments. The crashes involved a MY 2018 and a MY 2019 Corolla equipped with the subject ACU that incorporated higher levels of ASIC protection. Additionally, both ACUs were found to be non-communicative (meaning the ACU could not be read with an Event Data Recorder) after the crash, a condition found in other cases where EOS occurred with other OEMs. No other EOS events have been identified for other Toyota products (including Corolla models that used the subject ACU since MY 2011), or for the Honda and Mitsubishi vehicles that use the subject ACU.

ODI plans to evaluate the susceptibility of the subject ACU designs to electrical signals, as well as other vehicle factors that can either lead to, or reduce the likelihood of, an EOS event. Additionally, ODI will evaluate whether an unreasonable risk exists that requires further field action.
