Toyota is recalling 550,007 vehicles because of a seat-back locking issue, federal regulators said.<\/p>\n

The recall affects 420,771 Highlander and 129,236 Highlander Hybrid vehicles, all from model years 2021 through 2024, according to a notice filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.<\/p>\n

The notice said “second-row seat backs may fail to lock into position during seat back adjustment.”<\/p>\n

A seat back that has not been secured in a locked position may fail to properly restrain occupants, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash at higher speeds, the notice said.<\/p>\n

The NHTSA said all owners of the affected vehicles will be notified to return their vehicles to a Toyota dealer. The dealer will replace the return springs in the recliner assemblies with improved ones, free of charge.<\/p>\n

Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed in April.<\/p>\n
