Toyota, General Motors, Volvo, and Hyundai are issuing a far-reaching recall that could affect thousands of drivers nationwide. Are you wondering if your vehicle is part of this list? Read on to find out why these recalls matter, which models are involved, and how to take immediate action.
Toyota’s recall centers on more than 147,000 vehicles with problems involving brake hoses and seat belts. The first issue affects 106,061 units of the 2024-2025 Tacoma, where built-up dirt can weaken brake hoses and cause leaks. Meanwhile, 40,922 cars (including the 2025 Camry Hybrid, Lexus NX250, NX350, RX350, and RX500 hybrid versions) may have center seat-belt defects in the second row.
According to Toyota, owner notices start mailing on March 24, and all repairs will be free of charge. Recalls are identified by codes 25TB04, 25TA04, 25TA03, and 25LA03.
Why these comprehensive recalls from Toyota, GM, Volvo, and Hyundai require immediate attention
Have you ever imagined how dangerous it is when car parts fail mid-drive? General Motors is recalling about 70,000 units of the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 over chrome front deflectors that could detach and become road hazards. Volvo, on the other hand, has discovered a headlight software glitch in 2,000 units of the 2025 EX90.
This flaw may disrupt both high and low beams, posing serious risks for night driving. Hyundai is also recalling its 2025 IONIQ 5 N model because of a left-foot braking software error that can reduce braking response. Until a free software fix is applied, owners are advised to avoid using that feature. Below is a summary table with key details for each brand and problem. Remember to check the model year and specific issue:
| Brand | Recalled Model | Main Issue |
|---|---|---|
| Toyota | Tacoma (2024-2025) | Dirt buildup damaging rear brake hoses |
| Toyota / Lexus | 2025 Camry Hybrid, Lexus NX and RX series | Potential seat-belt defect in the second row |
| General Motors | GMC Sierra 1500 (2022) | Chrome front deflectors may detach |
| Volvo | EX90 (2025) | Software glitch affecting headlight operations |
| Hyundai | IONIQ 5 N (2025) | Software bug impacting left-foot braking performance |
How to determine if your vehicle is included and what to do next
Drivers should keep calm if they receive a recall notice. The important step is to schedule a dealership appointment or contact the manufacturer’s customer service line. If you do not receive a letter but suspect your vehicle might be affected, check the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website. Free repairs or software updates are offered by each automaker to ensure your safety.
Safety always comes first. By acting as soon as you receive an alert or notice, you protect yourself and other drivers on the road. After all, it’s not just about saving your vehicle from damage—it’s about preventing accidents and preserving lives.
