Al-Futtaim Toyota and Lexus have launched a vital safety campaign titled “Don’t Risk It, Fix It,” specifically targeting vehicle owners who have yet to address the ongoing Takata airbag inflator recall. Given the UAE’s intense heat and humidity, which significantly accelerate the degradation of these faulty components, the risk to drivers is substantial. Although the vehicles may seem to be operating normally, the potential for a dangerous malfunction remains, making an immediate check of your vehicle identification number (VIN) a critical priority for safety.

The repair process is completely free of charge, regardless of the vehicle's age or how many previous owners it has had. Al-Futtaim has streamlined the procedure to ensure it is as convenient as possible: owners simply need to verify their VIN on the official Toyota or Lexus UAE websites, book an appointment online or by phone, and visit an authorized service center. The replacement is performed by trained technicians in under an hour, offering a quick, no-cost solution to eliminate a serious safety threat. Owners of various models, including the Toyota Corolla and Yaris or the Lexus ES and RX, are strongly encouraged to act now to ensure their vehicle is safe for the road.
