What's wrong?
The Load Carrying Capacity Modification Label on a 2015 Toyota Tacoma tells the owner how accessories changed the truck's payload rating. It is a printed safety label, not a moving part. Its job is to show how much carrying capacity was reduced after added equipment, so the driver has accurate weight information before loading passengers, cargo, or gear.
On these Tacomas, the label calculation was wrong for trucks equipped with a specific combination of non-Toyota accessories. An accessory package with a tire upgrade added weight that was not properly counted. That made the label understate how much capacity had been removed from the truck after the accessories were installed.
There is no warning sign before failure. The truck will not make a noise or show a dashboard light because the problem is incorrect printed information. Owners notice it only by checking the label or confirming the VIN with a Toyota dealer.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific pickup truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
An incorrect load label can cause the Tacoma to be loaded beyond its rated capacity. Overloading affects how the truck handles and stops, increasing the risk of a crash. Check the label before carrying heavy cargo or passengers, and schedule the label replacement. Repair is free at any franchised Toyota dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2015 Toyota Tacoma is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Toyota dealer to schedule the free corrected load carrying capacity label installation, which gives the truck accurate loading information.
- Bring the recall notice if Toyota mailed one. If not, reference recall number 14V663 when you call.
- Avoid loading the truck to the limit shown on the old label until the corrected label is installed.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Toyota technician removes the incorrect Load Carrying Capacity Modification Label and installs an accurate label for the affected Tacoma vehicles. The recall repair is free, and parts and labor are covered. Because this recall involves the load carrying capacity label, the service visit should focus on correcting the vehicle information label rather than replacing a mechanical part. Gulf States has already notified owners that dealer label installation is available.
