Toyota is recalling approximately 73,528 model year 2023-2025 Corolla Cross Hybrid vehicles because they may fail to emit the required pedestrian warning sounds when the vehicle is in reverse. This software error means the vehicles do not comply with federal safety standards for hybrid and electric vehicle sound requirements. Toyota dealers will provide a free software update to correct the pedestrian warning system.
If the vehicle does not produce an audible warning sound while backing up, pedestrians may not be aware of the approaching vehicle, which significantly increases the risk of a collision and injury. No injuries or incidents have been reported at this time.
