UMW Toyota (UMWT) has issued a notice on a “special service campaign” in which the company will be recalling a total of 66,830 vehicles in Malaysia over difficulties involving faulty power-window master switches. The worldwide recall was initially announced by Toyota Motor Corporation in earlier this month.
Affected vehicle models in Malaysia are the Toyota Vios, Corolla Altis, Camry, Yaris and RAV4, produced between September 2005 to December 2010. In a statement released by UMWT, the firm said that it is “currently preparing the necessary remedial parts” and that “contact all affected customers to carry out the necessary corrective measures.”
Should said vehicle possess a faulty power-window master switch, the issue will be rectified with the application of specialised grease. However, should the master switch display signs of malfunction, the entire switch board will be replaced completely free of charge. For more information, owners are advised to contact UMWT at its Toyota Toll Free Line at 1800-8-869682.

See the difference?
Toyota power window problem: Very few people experience the problem, already recall 66k units.
Proton power window problem: Everyone’s power windows break down, still not recalling.
Sam has a good point
Aik. Din you say Toyota quality veri gooding no power window problem like Proton? Nak putar halim macam mana skarang?
power window tak rosak. suis dia aje.
66 ribu unit tu bukan semua rosak, suspek saja sbb tarikh suis tu dibuat (contoh dari kilang XYZ) adalah bersamaan dgn tarikh suis yg bermasalah.
mungkin 60 unit saja rosak… belum tentu tukar sbb boleh dibubuh grease.
we never experienced power window problem on our 4 years old saga..
Toyota power window problem – recall
Proton power window problem – lifetime warranty
beat that Toyota,
if after recall & warranty period finished ?
repair sendiri laaa..
nk gelak jugak Ha Ha Ha
Hey,owned a Perdana 2001 model,and the power windows never have a problem up to the time its sold in 2013
Those Toyota owner no face to complaint
Sales tarak jalan, power window rosak pulak dah. Susah la kerja Toyota saleman nie
Mana ada susah, kerja dia org ni manyak senang mah, pandai-pandai kelentong dan burukkan jenama kereta lain utk dapatkan sales. Sikarang, dia org ni jilatlah balik ludah sendiri.
Tuan-tuan dan puan-puan, jgn marah ye, ni hukum karma sampai ada salesman toyota pun boleh belikan proton saga utk anak dia sendiri.
Toyota owner will never admit they had power windows problem
Siapa keparat kata godcar takde power window problem, cuma Potong saja?
Jgn lupa, Perodua Myvi also got power window problem
I called the listed UMW Toyota Toll Free Line at 1800-8-869682 but they said they have not received the list from Japan.The website should not advertise if the issue is still pending.
This is actually hilarious. Even Toyota also got power window problem. World wide recall some more.
I’m sure many people will start to question why Proton never have a recall for power window problems when Toyota is doing it. The first thing to note is, no car manufacturer will do an Open recall like this unless the issue is safety related.
In this case, the story doesnt mention what is the exact problem. But as reported in the US, “The company(Toyota) said the window switch “may have been manufactured with insufficient lubricant grease,” which could short-circuit, overheat and melt, causing a fire.”
Unlike Proton, you most likely end up with a window that doesnt want to go down.. or doesnt go up… no potential fire, no safety issue, no recall, change under warranty.
toyota fan detected.
No la. He basically say you’ll probably be safer in a faulty power window’s Proton than a faulty power window’s Toyota as the Toyotas might catch fire, as per recalled issued.
Habis tu, sebab yang complain semua customer oversea, baru boleh attend la? kalau godcar tu solely complained in bolehland Toyota wat pekak? topkek
For any company point of view, they would try their best to detect any failure as early as they can, before ship them out. The cost for recall is just too high compared to factory screen. At least they admit it, than do the recall. This is the responsibility.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA.
yes it is intentional for the CAPS LOCK.
LOLOLOLOLOL.
Rubbish still a rubbish no matter how u done the best make-up. Few % ppl are not rubbishman, so they not facing those problem.
For a moment, the headline looked like it belonged on The Onion…
Until you realize that this power window problem actually causes electrical fires which could endanger the driver and passengers.. maybe they’ll brush it off as another case of switch being stuck by interior trim again..
I can’t afford Toyota ,but I want one, even it’s has power windows faulty
Jgn lupa, Perodua Myvi also got power window problem
Toyota recall over 4 million vehicle before, and now they are continuing recalling… i wonder the reaction of those who keep talking rubbish about proton quality ..
P.S: the cheapest toyota model in malaysia is triple the price of the cheapest proton model !
Too bad proton hasnt sold 4million vehicles
haha I remember toyotak fans use to laugh at proton’s major problem which is the power window. Guess who’s laughing now?
I’m sure all godcar will increase in RV value after this recall.
:P
Will reduce further dude.
Ahem ahem….
The difference of Toyota and Proton is Toyota aware defect and rectify. Proton aware the problem and admit, but and continue producing defective products.
P1 got lifetime warranty for power window, duh.
Toyota cheating customers but u dunno. Proton fail is bcos Malaysian too stupid followed Japanese style
Hahahah…they got the same supplier as proton?
Potong power window poblem got lifetime warranty, meaning they will never recall the poblem in yur lifetime
Putar Halim putar putar
LOL
Go and play with your problematic Vios lah.
Vios got another problem is alarm
Ouch, that’s gotta be such an inconvenience for these Toyota owners… Anyone here affected by the recall, by the way?
U only notice very few owners get the recall bcos a lot of them moving coffin
When is Toyota look into the lousy quality of the rear seat belt of Toyota Vios XP90 second generation. At first I thought it was only my car, but I realized a lot of other same model Toyota Vios having the same problem.
Kalau Proton recall, kau kata tu lah lawya punya Kualiti, Kalau segmen yang sama recall, kau kata untuk jaga satisfaction-safety pengguna, Kalau high segmen recall, kau kata make minor adjustment saja. Semua kilang kreta ada sejarah recall yang penting klu masih warranty mintak ganti. Klu habis warranty pergi jual aje la kat scrap.
I never know there’s a Yaris in this country. oh wait, on the other day I saw a Yaris.
TOYOTA champions for RECALLS aka@tin can cars.
