Toyota Safety Recalls & Service Campaigns
Check Your Toyota for Open Recalls
Toyota issues safety recalls and service campaigns when it finds an issue that needs to be corrected after a vehicle leaves the factory. If your Toyota has an open safety recall, the service team at Serra Toyota Lincolnwood can complete the repair at no cost to you. Look up your VIN using Toyota’s official recall lookup, then schedule your repair with us.

Toyota Recall FAQ
Does it cost anything to fix a recall?
No. Safety recall repairs are completed free of charge at authorized Toyota dealerships, including Serra Toyota Lincolnwood.
What is the difference between a safety recall and a service campaign?
A safety recall addresses an issue that affects vehicle safety or a federal safety standard. A service campaign addresses a non-safety issue that Toyota has chosen to correct. Our service team can confirm what is covered for your vehicle.
How long does a recall repair take?
It depends on the recall. Some repairs take less than an hour, while others take longer. When you schedule, our team can give you an estimated time for your specific repair.
What if the parts for my recall are not available yet?
Toyota sometimes notifies owners before the repair parts are ready. Give us a call at 847-675-7100 and we can check parts status for your recall and help you plan your appointment.
I bought my Toyota used. Do recalls still apply?
Yes. Recalls follow the vehicle, not the owner, so open recalls are still repaired at no cost no matter where or when you bought it.
Do I need my recall notice to schedule a repair?
No. Your VIN is enough for us to look up open recalls. If you received a notice in the mail, feel free to bring it with you.
How often should I check for recalls?
Check every few months and any time you buy a used vehicle. New recalls can be issued at any point during a vehicle’s life.
