Toyota Recalls Over 105,000 Land Cruiser Hybrids Over Fire Risk

Toyota is recalling 105,794 Land Cruiser Hybrid SUVs in the United States after identifying a potential fuel leak problem that could increase the risk of a vehicle fire.

The recall covers certain 2024–2027 model-year Toyota Land Cruiser vehicles. According to Toyota, a connection between fuel tubes near the fuel tank could become disconnected, allowing fuel to leak.

The company says authorised dealers will inspect the affected connection and install an additional retaining clamp. If necessary, dealers will also replace the resin fuel tube. The repairs will be carried out free of charge.

What Is the Problem With the Toyota Land Cruiser?

The issue involves the connection between a resin fuel tube and a metal fuel tube. These components help deliver fuel from the tank to the engine.

Toyota says the connection could become disconnected, potentially allowing fuel to escape. If leaked fuel comes into contact with an ignition source, it could increase the risk of a fire.

The company has not established a definitive explanation for why the connection may become disconnected. However, it has decided to recall the affected vehicles as a precautionary safety measure.

A recall does not mean that every vehicle included in the campaign has experienced a fuel leak or fire. It means the manufacturer has identified a potential safety defect that requires inspection and corrective action.

Which Toyota Land Cruiser Models Are Affected?

The US recall covers certain hybrid Land Cruiser SUVs from model years 2024 through 2027.

These figures relate to the US recall campaign and should not be interpreted as the number of affected vehicles worldwide.

Toyota has also announced a related recall involving approximately 6,721 Land Cruiser vehicles in Canada. The exact vehicles covered by each national campaign should be checked through the relevant official recall system.

How Toyota Plans to Fix the Fuel Leak Risk

Toyota says dealers will inspect the fuel-tube connection and install a supplemental clamp intended to prevent it from disconnecting.

If the inspection shows that replacement is necessary, dealers will replace the resin fuel tube and install the clamp.

The repair will be free for vehicles covered by the recall. Toyota plans to notify known owners by mid-December 2026, according to its announcement dated October 14.

Owners should wait for official instructions or contact an authorised dealer to confirm the repair procedure for their vehicle.

Has Toyota Reported Fires or Injuries?

Reporting on the recall cited 23 field technical reports and 64 warranty claims that may be associated with the issue in the United States as of early October 2026.

These figures describe reports and claims, not a confirmed count of fires or injuries. The existence of a potential fire hazard should therefore be distinguished from evidence that every affected vehicle has experienced the problem.

The recall is intended to address the potential defect before it leads to a more serious incident.

Are Toyota Land Cruisers in Pakistan Affected?

The announced recall applies to specified vehicles in the United States, with a related campaign reported in Canada. It does not establish that every Toyota Land Cruiser sold or imported into Pakistan is affected.

However, buyers and owners of imported Land Cruiser Hybrids should not rely solely on the country where a vehicle is currently registered. A vehicle originally sold in another market may still fall within that market’s recall campaign.

Owners should:

• Check the vehicle identification number (VIN) through Toyota’s official recall checker.
• Contact Toyota or an authorised dealer if the vehicle appears in a recall campaign.
• Arrange the recommended inspection and repair if the vehicle is confirmed to be affected.
• Seek professional assistance promptly if they notice a fuel smell or signs of a fuel leak.

What Land Cruiser Owners Should Know

Toyota’s recall highlights the importance of addressing potential fuel-system defects, even when a problem has not been confirmed in every affected vehicle.

For owners, the most important step is to establish whether their individual vehicle is included in the recall and follow the manufacturer’s repair instructions. The campaign’s stated remedy is free for eligible vehicles.
