— A Toyota Tacoma rear axle recall involves more than 402,000 trucks with components that can fall off.
The recalled 2022-2023 Tacoma trucks may have debris from the welding of the ends of the rear axle assemblies which can cause the retaining nuts to loosen and detach.
In addition to the retaining nuts falling off, Toyota says a "part" could separate from the axle and cause stability and braking problems.
Toyota Tacoma rear axle recall letters will be mailed at the end of April 2024 explaining how dealers will inspect the rear axle assemblies and retighten the axle retaining nuts. Any damaged axle components will be repaired or replaced.
About 21,000 of the Tacoma trucks are recalled in Canada.
Toyota Tacoma recall letters are expected to be mailed April 13, 2024, but truck owners may contact Toyota at 800-331-4331.
Toyota's numbers for this Tacoma recall are 24TB05 and 24TA05.
