The occupant classification system (OCS) of certain 2016 Toyota Avalon and 2016 Toyota Camry vehicles may have not been properly calibrated and could fail to comply with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) for occupant crash protection. The problem could result in non-deployment of the front passenger airbag and knee airbag, leaving front seat passengers unprotected during an accident.

Those receiving defect notices will be asked to return to their dealerships to have the OCS calibrated correctly. Owners wanting more information about the problem are asked to contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371. Toyota’s number for this recall is G0J and the NHTSA campaign number is 16V-215.
