If your dealership is willing to do so, the customer may be responsible for the cost of parts and/or labor not otherwise covered by Toyota’s Safety Recall. Toyota provides the specific remedy parts, and covers 1.1 hours of dealership labor expenses. The customer is responsible to pay any additional charges for parts and/or labor which are the result of the vehicle’s non-Toyota-approved modifications.
Toyota is not responsible for later performance problems the vehicle may have that are the result of the non-Toyota-approved vehicle modifications.
Loaner Vehicle or Alternative Transportation Reimbursement Procedure
Until the remedy is performed, Toyota recommends that no one sit in an outboard second-row seat when the vehicle is in motion. If this recommendation is not feasible for the customer’s personal or business needs, a loaner vehicle or alternative transportation through Toyota Rent-A-CAR (TRAC) can be claimed at a rate of $42.00 per day.

Description of Problem:
The subject vehicles are equipped with certain seat belt assemblies, which are used for the outboard second-row seating positions in the 8-passenger variant of this vehicle model. These seat belt assemblies use a directional low-friction insert in the D-ring (in conjunction with other features), to minimize “bunching” and/or point loading on the seat belt material in crashes necessitating pre-tensioner deployment. During a specific production period at the seat belt assembly supplier, an incorrect D-ring (e.g., left-hand side D-ring instead of right-hand) may have been used to manufacture the seat belt assemblies, causing the low-friction insert in these assemblies to face the wrong direction. These assemblies were subsequently installed in the subject vehicles. As a result, in the event the subject vehicles are involved in a crash which necessitates deployment of the pre-tensioner in the second-row seat belt assemblies, there is an increased possibility that the seat belt material may “bunch” and result in damage to the seat belt material that could lead to a tear in certain types of crashes. This can increase the risk of injury in those crashes.
Chronology of Principal Events:
October 5, 2021 – Early November, 2021
To conduct internal testing, the seat belt assembly supplier obtained a number of second-row outboard seat belt assemblies that were produced for the 8-passenger variant of the 2022MY Toyota Sienna. On October 5, 2021 the supplier observed that the assemblies may have been built incorrectly. Upon further inspection of these parts, it was discovered that the label on the packaging indicated an incorrect part number for the D-rings installed in seat belt assemblies that they obtained.
On October 6, 2021 the seat belt assembly supplier informed Toyota that incorrectly built second-row seat belt assemblies, for use in the 8-passenger variant of the 2022MY Toyota Sienna, may have been sent to the vehicle assembly plant. The supplier indicated that seat belt assemblies were built during a specific production period with an incorrect D-ring (e.g., lefthand side D-ring instead of right-hand), causing the low-friction insert in these assemblies to be facing the wrong direction.
Toyota immediately attempted to contain potentially affected vehicles and began inspecting vehicles and seat belt assemblies arriving from the supplier at the production plant. From the inspections, Toyota identified that vehicles had been built with the incorrectly assembled rear seat belt assemblies and that some potentially affected vehicles may have already left the production plant.
Toyota concurrently began investigating what effect the incorrect D-ring may have on the seat belt operation or performance. A review of the design history indicated that a directional Dring, with a low-friction insert, was added to these seat belt assemblies intended for the outboard second row seats of the 8-passenger variant of these vehicles along with the addition of pre-tensioners. The additional directional low friction insert was included in the design of these seat belt assemblies at this time because Toyota’s development testing indicated that, when a pre-tensioner is incorporated, the inserts were needed (in conjunction with other features), to help minimize the potential for the seat belts to “bunch” in certain types of crashes. Based on this analysis, it was determined that installing a directional D-ring in these seat belt assemblies in the wrong direction causes the low-friction insert to lose its effectiveness.
Based on the aforementioned information, Toyota’s engineering judgement is that in the event the subject vehicles are involved in crash which necessitates deployment of the pre-tensioner in the outboard second-row seat belt assemblies, there is an increased possibility that the seat belt material may “bunch” and result in damage to the seat belt material that could lead to a tear in certain types of crashes. This can increase the risk of injury in those crashes.
November 11, 2021
Based on the results of the above investigation, Toyota decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall campaign.
As of November 4, 2021, based on a diligent review of records, Toyota’s best engineering judgement is that there are 0 Toyota Field Technical Reports and 0 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.
Description of Corrective Repair Action:
All known owners of the subject vehicles will be notified to return their vehicles to a Toyota dealer. For all involved vehicles, the dealer will replace the outboard second-row seat belt assemblies with ones that have been manufactured correctly at no cost to owners.
Reimbursement Plan for pre-notification remedies
As the owner notification letters will be mailed out well within the active period of the Toyota New Vehicle Limited Warranty (“Warranty”), all involved vehicle owners for this recall would have been provided a repair at no cost under Toyota’s Warranty.
Recall Schedule:
Notifications to owners of the affected vehicles will occur by January 16, 2022. 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 November 17, 2021. Copies of dealer communications will be submitted as they are issued.

Vehicle Manufacturer Name: Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Indiana, Inc. [“TMMI”] 4000 Tulip Tree Drive, Princeton, IN 47670-4000 Affiliated U.S. Sales Company: Toyota Motor North America, Inc.

Identification of Involved Vehicles and Affected Components: Based on production records, we have determined the involved vehicle population as in the table below. Make/Car Line Model Year Manufacturer Production Period Toyota / Sienna 2022 TMMI September 16, 2021 through October 5, 2021 Applicability Part Number Part Name Component Description MY2022 Toyota Sienna 73360-08160-A0 73360-08160-B0 Belt Assy, RR No. 1 Seat, Outer RH 8-Passenger Outer RH Rear Seat belt Assembly 73370-08150-A0 73370-08150-B0 Belt Assy, RR No. 1 Seat, Outer LH 8-Passenger Outer LH Rear Seat belt Assembly 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) This issue concerns the above listed seat belt assemblies, which were used for the second-row outboard seating positions on the 8-passenger variant of the 2022MY Toyota Sienna and were produced by a particular supplier during a specific production period. Other Toyota and Lexus vehicles sold in the U.S. did not receive these seat belt assemblies. 3. Total Number of Vehicles Potentially Involved: 2,259 4. Percentage of Vehicles Estimated to Actually Contain the Defect: 100% of the involved vehicles contain outboard second row seat belt assemblies that were manufactured with an incorrect D-ring as described, below. However, whether the issue, in each case, will actually lead to seat belt “bunching” and result in a tear to the seat belt material that can increase the risk of an injury in a crash depends on the specifics of each crash, including whether it leads to the deployment of the pre-tensioner in the affected seat belt assemblies. 5. Description of Problem: The subject vehicles are equipped with certain seat belt assemblies, which are used for the outboard second-row seating positions in the 8-passenger variant of this vehicle model. These seat belt assemblies use a directional low-friction insert in the D-ring (in conjunction with other features), to minimize “bunching” and/or point loading on the seat belt material in crashes necessitating pre-tensioner deployment. During a specific production period at the seat belt assembly supplier, an incorrect D-ring (e.g., left-hand side D-ring instead of right-hand) may have been used to manufacture the seat belt assemblies, causing the low-friction insert in these assemblies to face the wrong direction. These assemblies were subsequently installed in the subject vehicles. As a result, in the event the subject vehicles are involved in a crash which necessitates deployment of the pre-tensioner in the second-row seat belt assemblies, there is an increased possibility that the seat belt material may “bunch” and result in damage to the seat belt material that could lead to a tear in certain types of crashes. This can increase the risk of injury in those crashes. 6. Chronology of Principal Events: October 5, 2021 – Early November, 2021 To conduct internal testing, the seat belt assembly supplier obtained a number of second-row outboard seat belt assemblies that were produced for the 8-passenger variant of the 2022MY Toyota Sienna. On October 5, 2021 the supplier observed that the assemblies may have been built incorrectly. Upon further inspection of these parts, it was discovered that the label on the packaging indicated an incorrect part number for the D-rings installed in seat belt assemblies that they obtained. On October 6, 2021 the seat belt assembly supplier informed Toyota that incorrectly built second-row seat belt assemblies, for use in the 8-passenger variant of the 2022MY Toyota Sienna, may have been sent to the vehicle assembly plant. The supplier indicated that seat belt assemblies were built during a specific production period with an incorrect D-ring (e.g., left-hand side D-ring instead of right-hand), causing the low-friction insert in these assemblies to be facing the wrong direction. Toyota immediately attempted to contain potentially affected vehicles and began inspecting vehicles and seat belt assemblies arriving from the supplier at the production plant. From the inspections, Toyota identified that vehicles had been built with the incorrectly assembled rear seat belt assemblies and that some potentially affected vehicles may have already left the production plant. Toyota concurrently began investigating what effect the incorrect D-ring may have on the seat belt operation or performance. A review of the design history indicated that a directional D-ring, with a low-friction insert, was added to these seat belt assemblies intended for the outboard second row seats of the 8-passenger variant of these vehicles along with the addition of pre-tensioners. The additional directional low friction insert was included in the design of these seat belt assemblies at this time because Toyota’s development testing indicated that, when a pre-tensioner is incorporated, the inserts were needed (in conjunction with other features), to help minimize the potential for the seat belts to “bunch” in certain types of crashes. Based on this analysis, it was determined that installing a directional D-ring in these seat belt assemblies in the wrong direction causes the low-friction insert to lose its effectiveness. Based on the aforementioned information, Toyota’s engineering judgement is that in the event the subject vehicles are involved in crash which necessitates deployment of the pre-tensioner in the outboard second-row seat belt assemblies, there is an increased possibility that the seat belt material may “bunch” and result in damage to the seat belt material that could lead to a tear in certain types of crashes. This can increase the risk of injury in those crashes. November 11, 2021 Based on the results of the above investigation, Toyota decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall campaign. As of November 4, 2021, based on a diligent review of records, Toyota’s best engineering judgement is that there are 0 Toyota Field Technical Reports and 0 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. 7. Description of Corrective Repair Action: All known owners of the subject vehicles will be notified to return their vehicles to a Toyota dealer. For all involved vehicles, the dealer will replace the outboard second-row seat belt assemblies with ones that have been manufactured correctly at no cost to owners. Reimbursement Plan for pre-notification remedies As the owner notification letters will be mailed out well within the active period of the Toyota New Vehicle Limited Warranty (“Warranty”), all involved vehicle owners for this recall would have been provided a repair at no cost under Toyota’s Warranty. 8. Recall Schedule: Notifications to owners of the affected vehicles will occur by January 16, 2022. 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 November 17, 2021. Copies of dealer communications will be submitted as they are issued. 10.

A sample of the owner notification letter has 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.

Are Sienna vehicles that have been converted for wheelchair accessibility able to have the remedy performed? The remedy can be applied to Sienna vehicles that have been converted for wheelchair accessibility by a Toyota-authorized mobility conversion company. Conversion of Sienna vehicles using non-Toyota-approved parts and/or accessories may make it difficult or impossible for a dealer to install the remedy parts for this Safety Recall. Who are the companies that have been authorized by Toyota to convert Sienna vehicles for wheelchair accessibility? Below is the list of companies that offer Toyota-authorized conversions for Sienna vehicles for wheelchair accessibility. • The Braun Corporation (BraunAbility) • Vantage Mobility International (VMI) What if my vehicle is converted by a non-authorized mobility conversion? Sienna vehicles that have been converted for wheelchair accessibility by a non-Toyota authorized mobility conversion company have undergone an unauthorized modification to the factory condition of the vehicle. These modifications may make it difficult or impossible to apply the remedy in their current condition. Toyota does not recommend modifying vehicles and cannot evaluate how any aftermarket, non-Toyota approved parts and/or modifications could affect a vehicle’s performance. Subject to individual review by the dealer and notwithstanding Toyota’s recommendation, some dealers may be willing to perform the Safety Recall remedy with the vehicle in its current modified condition. If your dealership is willing to do so, you may be responsible for the cost of parts and/or labor not otherwise covered by Toyota’s Safety Recall. Toyota provides the specific remedy parts and covers 1.1 hours of dealership labor expenses. You may be responsible to pay any additional charges for parts and/or labor which are the result of the vehicle’s non-Toyota-approved modifications.

OMB Control No.: 2127-0004 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 21V-889 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Manufacturer Name : Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing Submission Date : NOV 17, 2021 NHTSA Recall No. : 21V-889 Manufacturer Recall No. : See attached report. Manufacturer Information : Manufacturer Name : Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing Address : 6565 Headquarters Drive Plano TX 75024 Company phone : 1-800-331-4331 Population : Number of potentially involved : 2,259 Estimated percentage with defect : 100 % Vehicle Information : Vehicle 1 : 2022-2022 Toyota Sienna Vehicle Type : Body Style : Power Train : NR Descriptive Information : (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) This issue concerns the above listed seat belt assemblies, which were used for the second-row outboard seating positions on the 8-passenger variant of the 2022MY Toyota Sienna and were produced by a particular supplier during a specific production period. Other Toyota and Lexus vehicles sold in the U.S. did not receive these seat belt assemblies. Note: 100% of the involved vehicles contain outboard second row seat belt assemblies that were manufactured with an incorrect D-ring as described, below. However, whether the issue, in each case, will actually lead to seat belt “bunching” and result in a tear to the seat belt material that can increase the risk of an injury in a crash depends on the specifics of each crash, including whether it leads to the deployment of the pre-tensioner in the affected seat belt assemblies. Production Dates : SEP 16, 2021 – OCT 05, 2021 VIN Range 1 : Begin : NR End : NR Not sequential Part 573 Safety Recall Report 21V-889 Page 2 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Description of Defect : Description of the Defect : The subject vehicles are equipped with certain seat belt assemblies, which are used for the outboard second-row seating positions in the 8-passenger variant of this vehicle model. These seat belt assemblies use a directional low-friction insert in the D-ring (in conjunction with other features), to minimize “bunching” and/or point loading on the seat belt material in crashes necessitating pre-tensioner deployment. During a specific production period at the seat belt assembly supplier, an incorrect D-ring (e.g., left-hand side D-ring instead of right-hand) may have been used to manufacture the seat belt assemblies, causing the low-friction insert in these assemblies to face the wrong direction. These assemblies were subsequently installed in the subject vehicles. As a result, in the event the subject vehicles are involved in a crash which necessitates deployment of the pre-tensioner in the second-row seat belt assemblies, there is an increased possibility that the seat belt material may “bunch” and result in damage to the seat belt material that could lead to a tear in certain types of crashes. This can increase the risk of injury in those crashes. FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : As a result, in the event the subject vehicles are involved in a crash which necessitates deployment of the pre-tensioner in the second-row seat belt assemblies, there is an increased possibility that the seat belt material may “bunch” and result in damage to the seat belt material that could lead to a tear in certain types of crashes.
