Toyota Proace Verso and Proace City recalled over a tyre or wheel defect

Tyres and wheels

For affected vehicles equipped with the 1.5L diesel engine there is a possibility that premature wear of the camshaft chain may occur. Premature wear occurs primarily due to chain design which causes excessive tension in high engine speed and high engine load conditions which can lead to abnormal noise and risk of breakage of the chain.
