Stay safe brothers.

Toyota is recalling 6.5 million vehicles worldwide to fix faulty power window switches that can potentially catch fire, the automaker said on Wednesday. It is the fourth recall involving that component since 2009.

The recall is one of the largest single recalls initiated by the company and brings the number of vehicles affected by the problem to 14 million. Toyota said the switches could be replaced in about an hour.

Quote:

It affects a range of models manufactured from 2005 to 2010, including the Camry sedan and RAV4 and Highlander sport utility vehicles.

He wasn't suggested that the BRZ/FRS are affected by this, he was just sharing a recall for the many Toyota owners here

Yes sireee.

Our Rav4 got the recall so im taking it in next week. My mother mentioned a few weeks back it smelled like burning rubber when windows rolled down. Got notice in email.

Just thought id share recall. Some of us use the above recalled vehicles as family wagons.

My bad for not noticing that this was posted in the 'other vehicles' section. LOL. Thought it was in one of the general 'toyota 86' sections.
