Hundreds of Toyota utes that have been recalled over an issue with the reverse lights.
The recall affects models from Toyota Tundra VXKH75 regular, Limited, and Platinum range from 2022 to 2024.
This amounts to 831 affected units around the country.
The recall notice said a manufacturing defect could allow moisture to enter the internal circuit board of the reverse lamps, meaning they might not light up when the car is in reverse.
The rear-view camera may also become activated while driving.
The Tundra sells from a starting price of $159,990.

When that happens, owners will be able to make an appointment at their preferred Toyota dealer to fix the issue, free of charge.
