— A Toyota occupant classification system (OCS) sensor recall involves about 1 million popular Toyota and Lexus models.
Toyota says the sensors in the front passenger seats may not have been manufactured correctly which could cause short circuits.

Toyota and Lexus dealerships will inspect the OCS sensors and replace them if necessary.
Toyota customers with questions about the recall should call 800-331-4331 and Lexus owners may call 800-255-3987.
