Every Toyota Safety Recall In The UK, By Model And Year, With What Each Fault Means And How To Get It Fixed
Toyota has 250 UK safety recalls in DVSA records, including 100 since 2020. The most common recent faults involve software, fuel leaks and brakes. Enter your registration to check your Toyota; you won't usually pay for a recall repair at a franchised Toyota dealer.1
Which Car Is It?
Choose the make and model so we can match recalls to your car.
Toyota's recall rate per car on the road is below the average for major brands, but the size of its UK fleet means some recalls reach very large numbers of cars. The largest recent one, R/2022/346, replaces the driver's airbag inflator on the Avensis because it could rupture when deployed, covering 77,926 vehicle-records; if you own an older Avensis, check today. Hybrid owners should know about R/2020/190, which fixed a fault that could shut down the hybrid system and cause a loss of drive on the Auris Hybrid and Prius, covering 55,724. More recently, R/2025/270 reprogrammed the instrument cluster on the C-HR, Corolla, Corolla Cross and other models, covering 72,335, because the display could fail to show warnings. Many Toyota fixes are software updates done in under an hour. Toyota shares parts with Lexus, and the Proace van with Stellantis, so recalls can cross brands. Any Toyota centre can check your VIN.

How Many Recalls Has Toyota Had?
Since 2020 Toyota has launched 100 UK recalls. Adjusted for its cars on the road, that is 3.19 car recalls per 100,000 licensed cars.
The per-car figure divides car recalls since 2020 by the number of Toyota cars licensed in the UK in 2026 Q2, with van-only recalls removed.2 A higher count doesn't mean a car is less reliable: it reflects the size of the range, how vans are counted and how readily a maker recalls. See which car makes have the most recalls.

Data: DVSA vehicle recall data (Open Government Licence v3.0), updated 15 October 2026.
Sources
- The Code does not itself say repairs are free. GOV.UK guidance says "You will not usually have to pay for any repairs or parts under a safety recall." gov.uk Checked 15 Oct 2026.
- Models with fewer than 5 refs show lists, not rates.
- Code timelines: Producers normally respond to DVSA within 28 days (5.5); DVSA reviews are typically monthly (5.4). DVSA must be notified "as soon as the safety defect has been confirmed" (6.1). 3 notifications per motorist is seen as reasonable (8.3). Response rates are reported every three months (11.1).
