The short version
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing reported a problem with the tank assembly filler pipe and cap. Here is what owners need to know.
The transport hook may not have been removed prior to sale. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 301, "Fuel System Integrity."
