Toyota Australia Initiates Customer Service Exercise For The Panoramic View Monitor On Yaris Cross

Toyota Australia has today announced that it will initiate a Customer Service Exercise (CSE) for the Panoramic View Monitor (PVM) System on a range of Toyota Yaris Cross vehicles produced between 7th December 2022 – 28th December 2023. There are approximately 3,512 vehicles involved in the Australian market.

The involved vehicles are equipped with a Panoramic View Monitor (PVM) system, consisting of multiple individual cameras located around the vehicle which are used to capture and display images. Due to a manufacturing error of the forward and side camera sensors during a specific production period at a certain supplier’s plant, there is a possibility that a crack could develop on the camera sensors. If this occurs, the crack expands overtime and the circuit inside the camera can open or short, leading to an inability to display the forward or side-view areas shown by the PVM.

For all involved vehicles, Toyota dealers will inspect the applicable cameras and replace if required, free of charge to owners.

Repair and inspection will take approximately 2 hours. Depending on the Dealer's work schedule, owners may be required to make the vehicle available for a longer period of time.

Toyota Australia will contact all owners of involved vehicles to provide details of this CSE campaign. Owners are asked to keep their contact details up to date with Toyota so future communications can be received.

Owners with additional questions or concerns are asked to please contact their local/preferred Toyota Dealer in the first instance or the Toyota Campaign Helpline on 1800 987 366 (Mon-Fri 8.00am-6.00pm AEST). Please quote your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
