Toyota () Yaris Cross: On Affected Vehicles There Is A Possibility That The Dcm May Not Complete The Shutdown Process Within A Specific Period Of Time When The Ignition Is Turned Off Causing The Dcm T

Recall Summary Toyota is recalling approximately 273,270 vehicles across multiple models in the United Kingdom because a component called the DCM (Data Communication Module) may not shut down properly when the ignition is turned off, preventing it from restarting the next time the vehicle starts. This causes the e-Call emergency function to become unavailable, which violates safety regulations. Toyota will fix this issue by remotely updating the DCM software wirelessly.
