Toyota has announced a major recall affecting nearly 443,000 Tundra trucks in the United States due to a reverse light defect that could lead to serious safety risks while backing up.
History Behind the Recall
This latest recall, affecting 2022–2025 Toyota Tundras, stems from a manufacturing issue where moisture can seep into the reverse light housings. As these components are supposed to be sealed from the elements, over time, this intrusion can cause the reverse lights to fail entirely.
In addition to the increased risk of collisions, this malfunction also affects the vehicle’s reverse camera, which relies on those lights to illuminate the area behind the truck in low-light conditions. Without working reverse lamps, the rear-view feed may become too dark to safely guide the vehicle.
To make matters worse, the recall notice warns that moisture intrusion could lead to wiring corrosion inside the reverse light housing, potentially requiring more extensive repairs. Toyota identified the issue after receiving reports of lighting failures and began an investigation that resulted in this sweeping recall.
Dealers have been instructed to replace both reverse light assemblies and inspect the wiring harnesses for any corrosion or damage. If found, affected components will be repaired or replaced at no cost to the owner.
