Recall snapshot generated: . Historical snapshot, not a live recall check. Confirm current applicability and repair status with the manufacturer.
Registered model names in RDW cannot be separated reliably, so we do not show a model-specific percentage.
A campaign can appear in more than one register. These figures are advisory, not a per-VIN recall check.
EU Safety Gate campaigns
The EU rapid alert system for dangerous non-food products. 10 logged for this model.
23 Dec 2022Passenger carRisk: Injuries. Ref A12/01861/22. The density of the propellant in the airbag inflator may be reduced due to high temperature cycling and moisture in the propellant and its sealed container. In the event of an accident this can lead to the release of fragments of the front airbag from the generator housing, increasing the risk of…
2 Apr 2021Passenger carRisk: Fire. Ref A12/00444/21. Due to insufficient durability, the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler may develop an internal coolant leak which could create smouldering deposits inside the EGR cooler and the intake manifold.This may result in localised thermal damage in the intake system, which might lead to engine power…
23 Nov 2018Passenger carRisk: Injuries. Ref A12/1739/18. The airbag control module for the supplemental restraint system (SRS ECU) has been assembled with application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) that are susceptible to internal shorting when exposed to high inductive electrical noise from various vehicle electrical components. If this occurs…
15 Dec 2017Passenger carRisk: Environment. Ref A12/1791/17. There is a possibility that the bolts on the exhaust-side of the turbocharger assembly may not have been correctly tightened due to defective tightening equipment. The bolts could loosen over time, causing insufficient sealing of the turbocharger and could allow exhaust gas leakage from the…
3 Feb 2017Passenger carRisk: Injuries. Ref A12/0102/17. null The mixing ratio of the fire starter component may be incorrect in some initiators. As a result, the side airbag may not deploy.
11 Nov 2016Passenger carRisk: Injuries. Ref A12/1454/16. null In the event that the front passenger air bag is deployed, the gas inflator may rupture projecting metal fragments.
23 Oct 2015Passenger carRisk: Injuries. Ref A12/1286/15. null Owing to the faulty application of primer, the panorama sunroof may become detached from the frame and fall into the passenger compartment.
13 Dec 2013Passenger carRisk: Injuries. Ref A12/1820/13. null The brake hydraulic pressure may not increase sufficiently during harsh braking. This could result in an increased stopping distance.
30 Nov 2012Passenger carRisk: Injuries. Ref A12/1781/12. null Due to their insufficient hardness, the splines which connect the intermediate extension shaft of the steering system to the steering gear box may deform, develop increased backlash and eventually wear out, which could result in a loss of steering ability. This might happen if the steering…
28 Sept 2012Passenger carRisk: Injuries. Ref A12/1454/12. null The tow ball in some exceptional cases (under severe stress condition) might develop a crack. This may result in the detachable tow ball fracturing.Fracture of the detachable tow ball could release objects on the road, causing a risk of an accident and injuries to passengers of other cars or…

How this compares
Each register is compared on its own with the 60 models we publish an EU recall page for; the registers are never combined into one score. Its 10 EU Safety Gate campaigns are fewer than the median of 17 for this set. Its 26 KBA campaigns are fewer than the median of 34.
Counts across sources are not comparable to each other and are never summed: a Safety Gate alert and a KBA campaign can describe the same defect or different ones. Treat each as one advisory pointer.
Typical mileage for the Toyota Avensis
Pair these recall signals with the odometer distribution for the model year you are looking at:
Match the campaign’s production dates to the car, then ask the manufacturer or an authorised dealer to check its VIN and confirm whether the repair is complete. A model-level list cannot establish that.
