| ESS_Dealer Lette | 2018-04-23. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY. Dealer Letter: Toyota has received reports indicating that some vehicles may experience spare tire carrier or carrier cable corrosion even after being inspected and/or repaired as part of a previous Special Service Campaign. During normal usage, water splashing rearward can reach the spare tire carrier due to variation in the placement of the foam splash guard or loss of the splash guard. If the splashed water contains high concentrations of road salt, corrosion of the spare tire carrier and the carrier cable may result. In limited instances, the spare tire may become seperated from the spare tire carrier and create a road hazard that could cause a vehicle crash. Toyota has revised the inspection and remedy procedures for this special service campaign. All owners of affected vehicles in Warm Climate States are now eligible for an inspection of the spare tire carrier assembly and cable. |

| WPB (POL 14-11)_ | 2018-04-23. Service bulletin. STRUCTURE. WPB: Toyota has received reports where some vehicles may exhibit cracked and/or sticky/melting dashboards as a result of heat or humidity. In Mid-December, 2014 Toyota announced the reimbursement Phase of this warranty enhancement program. Since prior to that announcement, Toyota has been diligently making parts preparations for the parts replacement phase of this Program. Due to the age, volume, and breadth of the covered vehicles subject to the Program and the size and complexity of dashboard manufacturing, Toyota will be launching the part replacement portion of this Program in several phases; please refer to the table below for part replacement model phasing. Although Toyota is increasing production levels, it is difficult to predict customer demand and where parts need to be shipped to support customer demand. It is important that dealerships explain to customers that there still may be a period of time the customer will need to wait before part replacement can be performed. Please be sure to take this into consideration when performing customer scheduling. |
