What's wrong?
The vehicle load capacity modification label on the 2026 Toyota Tundra tells an owner how much weight was added after final certification and before first retail sale. That matters because accessories reduce the amount of payload the truck can safely carry. The label is supposed to reflect the added accessory weight accurately under FMVSS 110.
On this Tundra, an accessory package was installed, then deleted from the build sheet after installation was complete. Because the package was no longer listed in the build data, its weight was left out of the load capacity label calculation. NHTSA campaign 26V433 says the corrected label must match the actual added weight as required by FMVSS 110.
There is no warning sign before failure. The issue is the label itself, not a part you hear, feel, or see failing while driving.

What's the safety risk?
An incorrect load carrying capacity label can make the truck look able to carry more weight than it should. Improper loading raises crash risk because the vehicle is not carrying weight within the correct limit. Until the corrected label is installed, use caution with payload and avoid loading near the posted limit. Repair will be free at any franchised Toyota dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2026 Toyota Tundra is included in this recall.
- Watch for Toyota's owner letter with the free load-carrying-capacity label after September 4, 2026.
- Call Toyota customer service at 1-866-405-4226 with questions, and reference recall number 26V433 when you call.
- Follow the new label before loading the truck, since the incorrect label can lead to improper loading.
