Toyota. On December 1, the official website of the State Administration for Market Regulation showed that this time it mainly involved some domestic Highlander models and some imported RX models.
That. 1. GAC Toyota Motor *** recalled some Highlander vehicles manufactured between October 13, 2018 and March 31, 2021, a total of 186837 vehicles.
That. 2. Toyota Motor (China) Investment*** recalls some imported RX vehicles produced between November 30, 2018 and March 1, 2021, totaling 88,545 units.

As for the reason for the recall, it is due to the fact that the actual fuel injection volume of the vehicles covered by this recall may be lower than expected due to the imperfect fuel injection correction control program in the engine electronic control unit (ECU).
In this case, the engine speed is unstable when it starts cold, and in extreme cases, the engine accidentally stalls when the vehicle is driving at low speed, which increases the risk of being rear-ended, and there are potential safety hazards.
In view of this, Toyota has decided to recall this part of the model. After the recall, GAC Toyota and Toyota China will upgrade the engine ECU control program for the vehicles covered by the recall free of charge to eliminate potential safety hazards.

Whether it is an imported RX model or a Highlander model, it has a high recognition and reputation in the domestic auto market. Among them, the Highlander is a well-known model.
In the domestic auto market, this model is well recognized and favored. According to the latest industry sales data, in October 2023, Highlander's monthly retail sales in the domestic auto market will be 7,211 units.
Compared with last month, its sales showed a leading trend. It should be said that for the manufacturer's voluntary recall, I think, is a positive behavior.

To a large extent, the recall shows the manufacturer's responsible attitude towards users and its sense of social responsibility. The same is true of Toyota's current recall.
Compared with some domestic car companies in the face of their problematic models, not only do not recall, but take delay, avoidance and other serious infringement of consumers and rights and interests, I think that the voluntary recall of models is more trustworthy.
It can be expected that with the maturity of domestic users' consumption concepts, if some car companies cannot face up to the problems of their models, but continue to blindly deny, delay and avoid, then these car companies will eventually be abandoned by users.

In fact, some domestic car companies have now encountered a backlash. Here, we hope that these car companies can change their ways and become responsible car companies or brands.
