Back over prevention: software

26V162000144,200 vehicles affected

The problem
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2022-2025 Lexus NX350, NX250, 2023-2026 RX350, and 2024-2026 TX350 vehicles.

The risk
A rearview image that does not display reduces the driver's view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix

The problem
