Toyota is recalling more than half a million Camry sedans in the United States because a faulty instrument cluster can leave the digital gauge display blank when the vehicle is started.
508,354 Camrys
Number of vehicles potentially affected by the recall, according to documents filed with the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The recall applies to 2025 and 2026 Camry Hybrids equipped with a 7.0-inch instrument cluster. The digital display may fail to turn on, leaving a blank screen where speed, turn signals, hazard lights, and warning buzzers normally appear.
Driver and passenger seatbelt warnings, as well as an alert for when the key is left inside, have also been noted to malfunction.
The malfunction may also deactivate the outside turn signals and hazard lights.
In its internal investigation, Toyota determined the cause to be a software problem present only in Camrys equipped with the 7.0-inch digital cluster.
The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says the deactivated turn signals and hazard lights pose an increased crash risk.
According to NHTSA documents, affected owners will be notified by October 5 and directed to visit a local Toyota dealer for a free software update. Camry owners can also check on the NHTSA website whether their vehicle is affected.
Updates
Toyota has expanded the global recall to 655,000 Camrys—up from the initially reported 508,000—now including vehicles sold in North America, the Middle East, Asia, and other regions, with the affected units manufactured between December 2023 and July 2026 across U.S., Japanese, and Thai plants; the recall is limited to lower-trim models with the 7.0-inch digital cluster, while higher trims with a 12.3-inch display are unaffected, and U.S. owners will receive notification letters starting Sept. 21, requiring an in-person software fix at dealerships rather than an OTA update.
