Background:
On September 12, 2019, BMW filed a Defect Information Report (DIR) with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) informing the agency of the intent to conduct a voluntary Safety Recall on seven 2020 model year Toyota Supra vehicles.

Condition:
This Safety Recall involves the driver’s safety belt guide loop mount which may not have been welded to specifications. If the driver’s safety belt guide loop mount was not welded to specifications, then in a crash of sufficient severity, the mount could become damaged and may not restrain the driver as designed which would increase the risk of injury to the driver.

Remedy:
As of September 12, 2019, four of the seven total vehicles involved in this Safety Recall have been completed for this Safety Recall.

Toyota will contact owners of the three remaining incomplete vehicles to coordinate an inspection of their vehicle at the owner’s preferred authorized Toyota dealership. If a defective driver’s safety belt guide loop mount is found during this inspection, the vehicle will be replaced FREE OF CHARGE. Any owner who cannot be reached by phone will receive a letter by First Class mail by mid-November 2019.

In the rare instance that your dealership is requested to facilitate an inspection of one of the three incomplete vehicles, a Toyota Customer Experience Center or Regional representative will contact your dealership with further instructions.

Covered Vehicles:
There are seven vehicles covered by this Safety Recall. No vehicles involved in this Safety Recall were distributed to Puerto Rico. No other Lexus/Toyota/Scion vehicles are covered by this Safety Recall.
