The National Consumer Commission (NCC) of South Africa has issued a recall notice for two hybrid Toyota Corolla models – the sedan HEV and the hatchback HEV – due to potential defects that could lead to loss of steering and impaired braking. The recall affects all variants of both models and urges affected consumers to take their vehicles for immediate repair.
In mid-December 2024, the National Consumer Commission issued a recall notice detailing defects in two hybrid Toyota Corolla models that must be addressed urgently.
“Whilst the National Consumer Commission welcomes the notification of these product recalls, suppliers of these products are urged to take any and all necessary measures to inform affected consumers to minimise any potential harm that the continued use of these products may cause.” The defect impacting the hatchback Corolla hybrid relates to a brake actuator and affects several variants built between 7 October 2022 and 2 January 2024.These Corolla hatchbacks are fitted with a brake actuator with a skid control electronic control unit responsible for controlling the hydraulic and regenerative brake systems.
