Toyota PH recalls Toyota Rush due to airbag computer issue

Toyota Motor Philippines has launched a Special Service Campaign for the Curtain Shield Airbag Computer on some units of Toyota Rush.

The Special Service Campaign covers the 12,124 Toyota Rush units officially sold in the Philippine market which were produced from April 2, 2018, to February 7, 2019.

Toyota says that some Toyota Rush units may have issues in the programming of their airbag electric control units (ECU) which may cause the Curtain Shield Airbags to deploy upon impact on the rear wheel, such as running over a pothole.

Toyota Motor Philippines will notify the concerned customers through Official Notification Letters. Customers may bring their unit at any authorized Toyota dealer for the replacement of the Airbag Computer Assembly with a new one at no cost.
