Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to disable the engine block heater. For some vehicles, the corrective actions for this recall are under development. For others, a new engine block heater cannot be installed, and the owner will receive a refund of the purchase price of the engine block heater.","mfr_campaign":"SRC XC8/XC9 / SRC RC8/RC9 / SRC RD1/RD2","units":55683,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","match":"exact","models":["ECHO"],"built_from":null,"built_to":null,"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2021723"},{"source":"nhtsa","country":"us","campaign":"06V266000","date":"2006-07-19","manufacturer":"TOYOTA MOTOR NORTH AMERICA, INC.","component":"ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING","summary":"ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, DUE TO IMPROPER MOLDING OF THE RESIN BODY OF THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENOR INSTALLED ON THE ENGINE BLOCK, ENGINE OIL MAY PENETRATE THE SEAL AND ENTER THE SENSOR WIRING CONNECTOR.
