When I saw this I got a letter but it wasn't that. It was the one about an owners manual update. I wouldn't be surprised if that one follows.
On another note, I got a recall notice for the Rav4 that I traded..LOL

I didnt get an ECM update letter, just the owners manual update.

Is this ECM update in regards to the cooling system? Wasn't that only applicable in certain states?
