Toyota has announced a recall for 2023-2024 Sequoia Hybrid models due to a potential tow bar issue.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the tow ball cover can become detached, creating a road hazard and increasing the risk of a crash.

The tow bar cover is attached to the rear bumper.
