## What is wrong

Toyota Motor Engineering \& Manufacturing \(Toyota\) is recalling certain 2018 Toyota CH\-R vehicles.  The electronic parking brake \(EPB\) may not operate properly, possibly causing the parking brake not to disengage after it is applied or prevent it from being applied.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard FMVSS number 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."


## What can happen

If the EPB cannot be applied, there is an increased risk of a vehicle rollaway if the vehicle is parked on a hill without being placed into "Park."


## The remedy

Toyota has notified owners, and dealers will update the programming of the skid control ECU as necessary, free of charge.  The recall began on November 30, 2017.  Owners may contact Toyota at 1\-800\-331\-4331.  Toyota's number for this recall is H0W.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
