Gulf States Toyota (GST) announced in early August a safety recall affecting various Toyota models from 2023 to 2025 due to inaccurate load carrying capacity modification labels.
 
The recall, identified as NHTSA Recall No. 24V-548, was submitted on July 22, 2024, and involves vehicles equipped with GST accessories that display incorrect added weight values.
 
The issue was discovered during an inspection at GST’s vehicle processing center on June 25, 2024. It was found that programming errors led to the installation of labels indicating added weight that did not reflect the actual total weight of accessories. This could result in drivers unknowingly overloading their vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash.
 
GST is currently reviewing the affected vehicle population and will notify owners by mail. The notification will include a replacement label and detailed instructions for installation. Owners can also have the label replaced at any Toyota dealer at no charge. Dealer notifications are scheduled for July 31, 2024, with customer notifications beginning on September 16, 2024.
