PLANO, Texas (Jan. 28, 2026) — Toyota is conducting a safety recall involving certain model year 2023-2026 Prius vehicles. Approximately 142,000 vehicles are involved in this recall in the U.S.
There is a possibility that certain circumstances can cause water to enter the electric door switches on the rear doors of the subject vehicles and cause a switch to activate. If this occurs while the rear doors are unlocked, a rear door can open while driving, leading to an increased risk of injury to occupants.
For all involved vehicles, Toyota dealers will modify the left and right rear door switch circuits to prevent the switch from activating, even if it is shorted, free of charge. Owners of involved vehicles will be notified by late-March 2026.
