These recalls cover more than one generation of the Highlander: none of them names a car built between 2010 and 2019. Check the build dates on each recall.
Is a specific Highlander affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
