Toyota Grand Highlander and Lexus TX Are Recalled Due to Curtain Airbag Concerns
The automakers have issued a stop-sale order for the SUVs in dealer inventory until they can be fixed
Toyota is recalling 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander and Lexus TX SUVs due to concerns that the driver’s side curtain airbag may not deploy as intended if the side window is down because a portion of the curtain may unfurl outside of the vehicle. Consequently, the SUVs are out of compliance with federal regulations and may not provide the intended protection in a side impact.
The Details
Vehicles recalled: 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander and 2024 Lexus TX
The problem: The curtain shield airbag on the driver’s side may not deploy as intended during certain crashes if the driver’s window is rolled down.
The fix: A correction is being developed.

Check to see whether your vehicle has an open recall: NHTSA’s website will tell you whether your vehicle has any open recalls that need to be addressed.
If you plug your car’s 17-digit vehicle identification number (VIN) into NHTSA’s website and a recall doesn’t appear, it means your vehicle doesn’t currently have one. Because automakers issue recalls often, and for many older vehicles, we recommend checking back regularly.
