Gulf States Toyota is recalling 195 model year 2023 Toyota RAV4 vehicles that were equipped with 17-inch black alloy accessory wheels. During the installation of these specific wheels, the tire valve stems may have been damaged or improperly installed, which can lead to air leaks. Additionally, these vehicles may have a load carrying capacity label that lists an incorrect weight, which could lead to overloading the vehicle. Dealers will inspect and replace the valve stems and update the labels for free.
A damaged or improperly installed valve stem can cause the tires to lose air or become underinflated. This increases the risk of tire failure and a potential crash while driving.
You have 2 options:
Valve stem inspection and replacement
Label replacement
