What's wrong?
The temporary spare tire in the affected 2017 Toyota vehicles is the backup tire used after a flat. It is smaller than a regular tire and is meant for short, limited use at the pressure printed on the tire pressure label. That pressure matters because the spare depends on the right air pressure to support the vehicle when it is installed.
During vehicle processing, a quality audit found that the spare tire on a limited number of vehicles was not inflated to the value shown on that label. The spare itself is not described as defective. The problem is that it left processing without the specified air pressure, so it is not ready for use in the condition Toyota listed for the vehicle.
There is no warning sign before failure. Owners will not get a dashboard warning just because the spare tire is underinflated, so the issue is found by checking the spare tire pressure against the tire pressure label.

What's the safety risk?
An underinflated spare tire can fail to perform as intended when you need it, which increases the risk of a crash. If your VIN is included, schedule the recall repair and avoid relying on the spare until a dealer checks and adjusts its pressure. Repair is free at any franchised Toyota dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2017 Toyota Sienna, Yaris, RAV4 Hybrid, Corolla, 86, 4RUNNER, Camry Hybrid, Highlander Hybrid, Corolla Im, Avalon, Prius, RAV4, Camry, Prius C, or Highlander is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Toyota dealer to schedule the free spare-tire pressure inspection and adjustment so the spare matches the Tire Pressure Label.
- Bring the owner letter if you have it, and reference recall number 17V295 when you call.

- Call Toyota customer service at 1-800-444-1074 with questions and reference Toyota recall 17R2.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Toyota technician inspects the spare tire and checks its air pressure against the tire pressure label. If the spare tire is underinflated or overinflated, the technician adjusts it to the correct pressure. The inspection and pressure adjustment are free under recall 17V295. Toyota does not expect reimbursement claims for this issue, but Toyota will provide appropriate reimbursement if a claim arises. Keep any related repair paperwork and contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-444-1074 if you already paid for spare-tire pressure service tied to this recall.
