Recall 24V124 covers 18,616 2023-2024 Toyota Mirai and Lexus vehicles for delayed rearview camera display. Repair is free at any franchised Toyota dealer.
Toyota is recalling 18,616 2023-2024 Mirai and Lexus vehicles under recall 24V124 because parking-assist ECU software can delay the rearview camera image after the driver shifts into reverse. A rearview camera that does not display right away reduces the driver's rear view and raises crash risk, and Toyota dealers will update the software free of charge.

What's wrong?
The Parking Assist ECU on these 2023-2024 Toyota vehicles is the computer that runs the Panoramic View Monitor camera display. When the driver starts the vehicle and shifts into reverse, this unit is supposed to initialize the cameras and put the rearview image on the screen within two seconds.
The problem is in the ECU software. At startup, the unit can process a large amount of data at the same time the camera system is trying to initialize. The image drawing process takes priority, the camera initialization process fails, and the rearview camera image is delayed after reverse is selected.
This happens only when the startup sequence fails and the driver shifts into reverse within four seconds after switching on the ignition. There is no warning sign before failure. The first thing an owner notices is the rearview image taking longer than expected to appear after the shifter is placed in reverse.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific vehicle.
What's the safety risk?
A blank rearview camera reduces the driver's rear view while backing up and increases the risk of a crash. Until the software update is done, back up slowly, use mirrors, and check behind the vehicle before moving. Repair is free at any franchised Toyota dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2023-2024 Toyota or Lexus Mirai, Lc Hybrid, Es Hybrid, Lc, Es, Ls Hybrid, or Ls is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Toyota dealer to schedule the free parking-assist ECU software update that fixes the delayed rearview-camera image.
- Bring the recall notice if Toyota mailed one, and reference recall number 24V124 when you call.
- Use extra care when backing up until the repair is complete. Check behind the vehicle before shifting into reverse.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Toyota technician updates the parking assist ECU software so the rearview camera display responds correctly after the shifter is placed in reverse. The software update and labor are free under the recall. Out-of-pocket repairs already paid are handled through the Toyota or Lexus New Vehicle Limited Warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because the owner letters were mailed during the active warranty period. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
