18 plate Yaris Hybrid recall

[gabemc1]

Afternoon guys,

I had my annual service yesterday and was told there's currently a recall on certain Toyota Yaris hybrids made in 2018. Apparently there's something wrong with a bearing in the DC converter, and the whole unit needs replacing - 4 hour job. Weird enough checking it on Toyota recall page gives an error message, but the DVLA one shows as having a recall. It's worth checking and/or giving your local dealer a call and see if yours is affected. 

Cheers,

Gabe
