Toyota Yaris Cross Deliveries Resume After Safety Investigation

Are you relieved that the Yaris Cross is deemed safe for delivery?

Customer deliveries of the Toyota Yaris Cross have resumed after the company confirmed they’re fully compliant with certification requirements. The company had paused customer deliveries earlier this week in Australia, after Toyota in Japan suspended shipments of the vehicle pending an investigation of safety testing procedures.

Earlier this week, Toyota Australia decided to temporarily halt deliveries of the Yaris Cross as a precautionary measure while the vehicle’s certification was under investigation. They took the matter seriously and wanted to ensure the vehicle’s safety.

After conducting thorough investigations, Toyota has confirmed that the Australian-specification Yaris Cross meets all the necessary safety standards. They have reassured customers that there are no safety or performance concerns with the vehicle. Toyota Australia has apologized for any inconvenience caused and expressed gratitude towards the patience and understanding of their customers.

While deliveries from Japan are still on hold, Toyota assures that they have an ample amount of stock in transit and at their dealerships. This ensures that customers will not have to wait too long for their Yaris Cross.

The safety investigation has also affected other Toyota models, including the Corolla Fielder wagon, Corolla Axio sedan, Toyota Crown, Isis, Sienta, and previous-generation Lexus RX. These models were found to have insufficient data in pedestrian and occupant protection tests. As a result, shipments of these vehicles have also been paused.

Toyota has released a statement apologizing for the issue and taking full responsibility. They acknowledge the lack of proper testing procedures and are committed to rectifying the situation.
