- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 2020288

- Reported: 2020\-06\-24
- Component: Steering
- Notification type: Safety Mfr

## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles, the cover of the electric power steering \(EPS\) gearbox may not be properly attached. As a result, water can enter the gearbox and corrode internal components. Under certain conditions, this can result in a loss of power steering assist.

Safety Risk:

A loss of power steering assist may result in a sudden increase in steering effort, especially at low vehicle speeds. This could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action:

Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a Toyota dealer to replace the electric power steering gear assembly.
