Toyota C-Hr: Brakes

Affects Toyota C-Hr · 2018 — about 5K vehicles.

The hazard

Certain vehicles may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 135 - Light Vehicle Brake Systems. The electric parking brake (EPB) may not apply or release due to an incorrectly programmed skid control ECU. If this occurs while the vehicle is parked on a grade without being place into the park position and the EPB warnings are ignored, the vehicle may roll away which would increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the programming of the skid control ECU.
