Toyota Proace City recalls

​​Vehicles equipped with a 1.5L engine may be subject to engine failure and loss of engine power caused by water pump pulley slippage. This condition may result in timing belt misalignment and engine shutdown. The pulley may detach from the shaft leading to the loss of vehicle components on the roadway and complete loss of engine power increasing the risk of an accident.​

Fix: ​​Engine Water Pump Replacement​

For certain vehicles equipped with diesel engines there is a possibility that you may experience fuel leakage from the common rail. As a result fuel leaking between the nut and the common rail cone may create fuel vapour and fuel flow towards the hot exhaust system with a risk of a thermal event.

Fix: Check and if required replacement of the common rail.

For affected vehicles equipped with the 1.5L diesel engine there is a possibility that premature wear of the camshaft chain may occur. Premature wear occurs primarily due to chain design which causes excessive tension in high engine speed and high engine load conditions which can lead to abnormal noise and risk of breakage of the chain.

Fix: Inspection of the camshaft chain replace where required and update the engine ECU software
