TOYOTA Toyota Motor North America, Inc. Vehicle Safety & Compliance Liaison Office Mail Stop: W4-2D 6565 Headquarters Drive Plano, TX 75024 December 23, 2021 AMENDED DEFECT INFORMATION REPORT 21V-920 1. Vehicle Manufacturer Name: Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Indiana, Inc. [“TMMI”] 4000 Tulip Tree Drive, Princeton, IN 47670-4000 Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Texas, Inc. [“TMMTX”] 1 Lone Star Pass, San Antonio, TX 78264-3413 Affiliated U.S. Sales Company: Toyota Motor North America, Inc. [“TMNA”] 6565 Headquarters Drive, Plano, TX 75024 Manufacturer of Steering Gear Assembly: JTEKT North America Corporation 7 Research Drive Greenville, SC 29607 864-770-2100 2. Identification of Involved Vehicles and Affected Components: Based on production records, we have determined the vehicle population in the table below may have been equipped with the steering gear assembly described in Section 5, below. Make/Car Line Model Year Manufacturer Production Period Toyota / Tundra 2007 – 2021 TMMTX January 19, 2007 through October 18, 2021 Toyota / Sequoia 2008, 2010-2015, 2017, 2019, 2021 2022 TMMI February 4, 2008 through October 25, 2021 Applicability Part Number Part Name Component Description Toyota / Tundra 2007 – 2021 44250-0C170 44250-0C160 44250-0C131 Gear Assy, Power Steering Hydraulic Rack & Pinion Steering Gear Toyota / Sequoia 2008-2022 44250-0C121 Gear Assy, Power Steering Hydraulic Rack & Pinion Steering Gear 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 power steering gear assemblies that were machined by a specific piece of equipment at a specific supplier during a specific production period. The involved vehicles are the only vehicles that may have been originally equipped with or have service records of being repaired with these steering gear assemblies. 3. Total Number of vehicles covered by this safety recall: Tundra: 21,405 Sequoia: 1,251 Total: 22,656 [NOTE: This amended population adds 171 Tundra and 23 Sequoia vehicles which have service records of being repaired with these steering gear assemblies.] 4. Percentage of Vehicles Estimated to Actually Contain the Defect: Toyota estimates that 25% of the involved vehicles may contain a groove of an incorrect shape where the circlip is installed because one of the four pieces of equipment that machine this groove had the damaged teeth on the cutting tool, as further described in this report. Whether this issue will cause a sufficient amount of power steering fluid leaking due to the circlip becoming disengaged from this groove and lead to a sudden loss of power steering assist depends on the vehicle driving conditions. 5. Description of Problem: The subject vehicles are equipped with a power steering system where hydraulic pressure is applied through power steering fluid entering the steering gear assembly. An oil seal, an end stopper, and a circlip are used to contain the hydraulic fluid within the gear assembly. During a specific production period at the supplier, one of the four pieces of equipment that machine the groove in the gear assembly where the circlip is installed was not creating a groove of the correct shape. When the circlip is installed in a groove of an incorrect shape created by this piece of equipment, the circlip may not be able to hold the oil seal and end stopper in position. This can result in oil leaking from the gear assembly. After a sufficient amount of oil has leaked, it is possible that a sudden loss of power steering assist may occur. In this condition, the steering system will revert to manual steering mode, and steering control can be maintained at all times. However, suspension of power steering assist results in increased steering effort at low vehicle speeds and increases the risk of a crash. 6. Chronology of Principal Events: Late September 2021 – mid November 2021 Beginning in late September, Toyota observed an increase in field reports and warranty claims alleging power steering fluid leak involving the subject vehicles. Toyota observed that these reports mainly involved vehicles produced during the months of August and September 2021. During this time, Toyota also began recovering parts involved in these reports and sending them to the supplier for their inspection. In late October, Toyota began receiving responses from the supplier regarding their inspection into the recovered parts that Toyota had sent. In these inspections, the supplier found that the circlip, which holds the oil seal and end stopper in position at the end of the power steering rack housing, was disengaged from the groove machined in the rack housing and that the oil seal and the end stopper were moved from the correct position. Further investigation of the returned parts revealed that the groove where the circlip is installed was improperly machined leading to an incorrect groove shape. Based on these findings, the supplier investigated their production process and identified that one of the four pieces of equipment that machines the groove in the rack housing was not creating a groove of the correct shape. The tool was inspected, it was found that certain teeth on the cutting tool, which creates the groove in the rack housing, were damaged. By this time, the supplier had stopped manufacturing with the affected tool and had begun an internal inspection to attempt to stop the flow out of parts with the incorrect groove shape. Toyota also began holding and inspecting parts at the vehicle plants and parts distribution centers. In addition, Toyota conducted duplication testing on additional recovered parts with the incorrect groove shape. In these tests, the circlip disengaged from the groove and the power steering fluid leaked during the continuous operation of the steering from lock-to-lock position when the vehicle was stationary. It was further observed that if the circlip disengages from the groove, the oil seal and end stopper can move from the correct position due to internal fluid pressure within the rack housing, which results in a power steering fluid leak from the rack housing. The testing also indicated that, after a sufficient amount of oil has leaked, it is possible that a sudden loss of power steering assist may occur. In this condition, the steering system will revert to manual steering mode, and steering control can be maintained at all times. However, suspension of power steering assist results in increased steering effort at low vehicle speeds and increases the risk of a crash. November 17, 2021 Based on the results of the above investigation, Toyota decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall campaign. As of November 17, 2021, based on a diligent review of records, Toyota’s best engineering judgement is that there are 35 Toyota Field Technical Reports (received between September 24, 2021 and November 16, 2021) and 181 warranty claims (received between September 3, 2021 and November 17, 2021) that have been received from U.S. sources that relate or may relate to this condition (on the production vehicles covered by this safety recall on November 23, 2021) and which were considered in the decision to submit this report. November 23, 2021 Toyota filed a Part 573 Defect Information Report. November – December 2021 Toyota continued its investigation to determine whether service replacement parts that may contain the defect were distributed to dealers and were used for vehicle repairs. On November 16, Toyota received a dealer product report regarding a vehicle that had been repaired with a service part steering gear assembly, which experienced a sudden loss of power steering assist and a fluid leak from the gear assembly. Toyota recovered the part and sent it to the supplier for investigation. The supplier later reported that the service part contained the same defect. Concurrently, Toyota conducted a further review of its records and identified that service parts were ordered and shipped to dealers and distributers. In addition, based on a review of service history, Toyota identified that some of those affected service parts had been used in vehicle repairs for vehicles not previously covered by this safety recall. Based on this information, it was determined that 194 additional vehicles could be identified outside of the previous 21V-920 population that received a potentially involved service part. December 21, 2021 Based on the new information explained above, Toyota decided to amend the vehicle population in recall 21V-920 to include the 194 additional vehicles that could be identified as having received a potentially affected service part. A separate Defect Information Report is being filed to cover service parts for which Toyota does not have information as to whether they were installed in any vehicle. 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, Toyota dealers will inspect the power steering gear assembly and, if necessary, replace it with a new one 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”) or the Limited Warranty for Parts and Accessories, applicable to involved service parts, 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 22, 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 had been sent on November 23, 2021. Additional notices about the amended vehicle population will be sent on December 23, 2021. Copies of dealer communications will be submitted as they are issued. 10.

FAQ Page 1 of 2 © 2021 Toyota Motor Sales, USA SAFETY RECALL 21TA10 (Interim Notice 21TB10) Certain 2007-2021 Model Year Tundra Vehicles Certain 2008, 2010-2015, 2017, 2019, 2021-2022 Model Year Sequoia Vehicles Potential Sudden Loss of Power Steering Assist Frequently Asked Questions Original Publication Date: November 23, 2021 Q1: What is the condition? A1: The subject vehicles have a power steering system that makes it easier to turn the steering wheel, especially at lower speeds. Due to a manufacturing error, a component of this system can leak power steering fluid. If a sufficient amount leaks, power steering assist can be suddenly lost. While manual steering remains functional, the loss of power steering assist may increase the steering effort needed and can increase the risk of a crash. Q1a: Are there any warnings that this condition exists? A1a: If this condition occurs, some customers may experience a pop sound, grinding noise, increased steering effort, or observe a power steering fluid leak on the floor Q1b: What should I do if the condition occurs on my vehicle? A1b: If a popping sound or grinding noise is heard, and/or you experience increased steering effort while operating the vehicle, stop the vehicle in a safe area at the earliest opportunity and contact your local Toyota dealer for assistance. Q2: What is Toyota going to do? A2: Toyota is currently preparing the remedy for this issue. When the remedy is available, Toyota dealers will inspect the power steering gear assembly and if necessary, replace it FREE OF CHARGE. Toyota will notify owners by late January 2022. Q3: When will the remedy become available? A3: Toyota is currently preparing the parts and repair instructions for the remedy. At this time, Toyota estimates that the remedy can be available in the 1st Quarter of 2022. Q4: Which and how many vehicles are covered by this Safety Recall? A4: There are approximately 22,700 vehicles covered by this Safety recall. Approximately 85 vehicles involved in this Safety Recall were distributed to Puerto Rico. Model Name Model Year Production Period Tundra 2007-2021 Mid-January 2007 to Mid-October 2021 Sequoia 2008, 2010-2015, 2017, 2019, 2021-2022 Early February 2008 to Late October 2021 FAQ Page 2 of 2 © 2021 Toyota Motor Sales, USA Q4a: I own a vehicle that is of a model/model year listed in the table, above. Why isn’t my vehicle covered? A4a: On December 23, 2021, Toyota amended a previously filed Defect Information Report (DIR) with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to add certain 2007-2021 model year Tundra vehicles and 2008, 2010-2015, 2017, 2019, 2021-2022 model year Sequoia vehicles. These additional model and model years were added because Toyota has information that approximately 200 vehicles in this range were repaired using service parts which may have been affected by the same condition. Only those approximately 200 vehicles were added to this safety recall. However, if you believe that your steering gear assembly has been replaced since August 5, 2021 (when service replacement assemblies that could be affected by this condition began to be sold), when the remedy becomes available, please visit your Toyota dealer who can inspect your vehicle to confirm if your vehicle is affected. Q5: How does Toyota obtain my mailing information? A5: Toyota uses an industry provider who works with each state’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to receive registration or title information, based upon the DMV records. Please make sure your registration or title information is correct. Q6: What if I have additional questions or concerns? A6: If you have additional questions or concerns, please contact the Toyota Brand Engagement Center at 1-888-270-9371 Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 8:00 pm, Saturday 9:00 am to 7:00 pm Eastern Time.

Toyota will begin to notify phase 2 owners by late February 2022. 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. 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 700 vehicles in new dealer inventory as of November 23, 2021. 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.

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 [email protected]. In the subject line of the email state “Disclosure Form 21TA10” 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 involved vehicles are the only vehicles that may have been originally equipped with or have service records of being repaired with these steering gear assemblies. Note: Toyota estimates that 25% of the involved vehicles may contain a groove of an incorrect shape where the circlip is installed because one of the four pieces of equipment that machine this groove had the damaged teeth on the cutting tool, as further described in this report. Whether this issue will cause a sufficient amount of power steering fluid leaking due to the circlip becoming disengaged from this groove and lead to a sudden loss of power steering assist depends on the vehicle driving conditions.

Production Dates : FEB 04, 2008 – OCT 25, 2021 VIN Range 1 : Begin : NR End : NR Not sequential Description of Defect : Description of the Defect : The subject vehicles are equipped with a power steering system where hydraulic pressure is applied through power steering fluid entering the steering gear assembly. An oil seal, an end stopper, and a circlip are used to contain the hydraulic fluid within the gear assembly. During a specific production period at the supplier, one of the four pieces of equipment that machine the groove in the gear assembly where the circlip is installed was not creating a groove of the correct shape. When the circlip is installed in a groove of an incorrect shape created by this piece of equipment, the circlip may not be able to hold the oil seal and end stopper in position. This can result in oil leaking from the gear assembly. After a sufficient amount of oil has leaked, it is possible that a sudden loss of power steering assist may occur. In this condition, the steering system will revert to manual steering mode, and steering control can be maintained at all times. However, suspension of power steering assist results in increased steering effort at low vehicle speeds and increases the risk of a crash.
