## What is wrong

Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC \(SET\) is recalling certain 2015\-2018 Toyota 4Runner vehicles equipped with an accessory Billet Grille Overlay installed by SET or provided by SET and installed by SET dealers.  The U\-nut that secures the overlay grille may fracture, allowing the Billet Grille Overlay to detach from the vehicle.


## What can happen

If the Billet Grille Overlay detaches while driving, it can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

SET will notify owners, and dealers will replace the securing U\-nuts with upgraded hardware, free of charge.  The recall is expected to begin January 26, 2018.  Owners may contact SET customer service at 1\-866\-405\-4226.  SET's number for this recall is SET17C.
