Recall Overview
Toyota has issued a safety recall affecting approximately 55,000 model year 2025 Toyota Sienna vehicles in the United States due to a potential issue involving the second-row seat mounting system. The recall centers on seat rails that may not have been properly welded during production, which could increase the risk of injury in certain crash scenarios.
According to Toyota, the affected vehicles may have second-row seats mounted on seat rails that do not meet required structural standards. If the seats are occupied during a high-speed collision, the improperly welded rails could lose structural integrity, potentially increasing injury risk for passengers.
What Is the Problem?
The issue stems from a manufacturing defect in which the welding process for the second-row seat rails may not have been completed correctly. As a result, the seat assembly may not provide the intended level of protection in a crash.
Toyota notes that there are no warning signs or dashboard indicators associated with this issue, meaning owners may not be aware of the defect until the vehicle is inspected.
What Toyota Is Doing
Toyota dealers will replace the second-row seat rails with properly welded components at no cost to owners. The repair is intended to restore the structural integrity of the seat mounting system and ensure compliance with safety standards.
Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed beginning in early December 2025. In the meantime, owners can check whether their vehicle is included in the recall by entering their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the Toyota or NHTSA recall websites.
What Owners Should Do
Owners of affected Toyota Sienna vehicles should schedule a service appointment with an authorized Toyota dealer once notification is received. The repair will be performed free of charge.
Drivers with questions can also contact Toyota customer support at 1-800-331-4331 for additional information regarding the recall and repair process.
