2022–2026 Toyota Sienna: seats recall
A seat back that is not secured may fail to properly protect an occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
What was reported
Source: manufacturer filing, 49 CFR Part 573Reported to NHTSA Oct 20, 2026 by Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing.
The fix, from the dealer bulletin
Source: NHTSA remedy instructions and dealer noticeThe advisory, as filed: “Model / Years Production Period Approximate Total Vehicles Approximate Stop Sale Dealer Inventory 2022 – 2026 Sienna HV Mid -September 2021 – Late July 2026 228,400 88.”
Read from NHTSA’s copy of the manufacturer’s dealer documents (manufacturer campaign 26TB24/26TA24). The procedure itself is in the bulletin; a franchised dealer has the current copy on the manufacturer’s portal, and that copy governs. Working a lot or a fleet? Recall Watch carries this line on every VIN it checks: remedy status, hours, stop-sale.
Which vehicles are covered
Source: NHTSA campaign 26V690000Vehicles built Sep 16, 2021 to Jul 20, 2026 — a VIN outside that window is not part of this campaign even if the year, make and model match.
| Model year | Class | Safety Signal | Recalls on file |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 Toyota Sienna | Minivan | C | 5 |
| 2023 Toyota Sienna | Minivan | C | 3 |

Those are the model years inside WhichTrim's range, 2016 onward. The campaign may cover others outside it, and the only thing that settles whether one specific vehicle is included is its VIN.

Check one specific vehicle
A recall applies to a build range, so year, make and model cannot settle it. Type the VIN and the WhichTrim recall report checks this campaign’s build window and engine against it.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573Is 26TB24/26TA24 the same recall as 26V690000?
Yes. 26TB24/26TA24 is the number Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing uses for this campaign in its own paperwork and in the letter it sends owners. 26V690000 is the number NHTSA files it under. One recall, two references — dealers and service departments generally quote the manufacturer's.
Does this recall repair cost anything?
No. Federal law requires the manufacturer to remedy a safety defect or a compliance failure at no charge, for vehicles up to 15 years old measured from the date of first sale. A dealer that asks you to pay for a recall repair is in the wrong.
How do I know whether my vehicle is included?
By VIN, not by model year. This campaign covers vehicles built Sep 16, 2021 to Jul 20, 2026. The manufacturer files a build range with NHTSA and only vehicles inside it are covered, so two identical-looking cars from the same year can differ. NHTSA's own lookup checks a VIN against the manufacturer's list.
What if the repair is not available yet?
It happens, and often. Manufacturers must notify owners when a defect is found even if the parts or the software are not ready, then notify them a second time once the remedy exists. The remedy filed for this campaign is described above.
What did the manufacturer say was wrong?
The problem, risk and fix quoted on this page are the manufacturer's own words as filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR Part 573. WhichTrim does not paraphrase them.
Who started this recall?
NHTSA's record credits the manufacturer. A recall can begin with the manufacturer's own testing, with a defect investigation, or with a compliance test against a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard.
