If you were hoping to hop into a new Toyota Grand Highlander or Lexus TX this weekend, you'll have to wait. Toyota has issued a stop-sale in the US as of June 20, 2024, for the Grand Highlander and TX three-row SUVs due to an airbag issue.
According to Toyota, the driver's side curtain airbag may not deploy in a crash with the driver's window rolled down. This airbag located just above the window near the driver's head is designed to protect the upper body in the event of a crash.
The recall affects about 145,000 units of the Grand Highlander and TX built for the 2024 model year. Current owners of a 2024 Grand Highlander or TX will be notified of a fix by mid-August when Toyota finds a solution to the issue.
