Photo source: ToyotaToyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing is recalling 83,725 model year 2022 Lexus NX250s & NX350s, and Toyota Tundras.
The Brake Actuator Assembly's Skid Control ECU may falsely detect an overcurrent condition of the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) Actuator and enter a failsafe mode.
This prevents the EPB from being engaged while in "park," and may result in a vehicle rollaway, increasing the risk of a crash.
Owners should take their vehicle to the dealer, who will reprogram the Skid Control ECU free of charge.
Notification letters are expected to be mailed by October 31, 2022.
Owners with questions may contact Toyota's customer service at (800) 331-4331. Toyota's numbers for this recall are 22TA11 and 22LA04.
