Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? Some Toyota Proace and Proace Verso cars have weak seat-bolt nuts. This means the front or rear passenger seats might move in a crash.

What's happening? Toyota found that the nuts on some seat bolts were not made strong enough. If a crash happens, the seats could shift and hurt people inside.

Does this affect me? If you own or use one of these Toyota models in France, your seats might be at risk.

What should I do? Take your car to a Toyota dealer right away. They will check and fix the seat bolts for free. Ask your dealer for help.
