Toyota has announced a safety recall affecting 2024–2025 Toyota Tundra and Tundra Hybrid pickup trucks in the United States due to a malfunction in the multimedia display system.
The automaker confirmed on January 23, 2026, that the recall covers approximately 162,000 vehicles nationwide.
Toyota said the multimedia screen can freeze on the camera view or display a black screen under certain conditions. The malfunction can prevent drivers from accessing critical information, causing the system to fall short of U.S. federal safety standards.
The company said it will begin notifying affected owners by late March. Toyota advised customers to check the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s official recall listings to confirm whether their vehicles are included. Federal recall data had not yet appeared in public databases as of Friday afternoon.
