UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT) today announced a recall to update the electronic control unit (ECU) of the electric parking brake (EPB) system of the Toyota Alphard and Vellfire. Around 1,900 units of the MPV manufactured from April 2016 to Feb 2018, distributed by UMWT, are involved in the campaign.
The issue is with improper programming of the ECU for the EPB system. There is the possibility that a voltage reduction during an engine restart after an idling stop could be judged as an abnormality if the battery has experienced degradation. If this happens, a warning light would illuminate and the EPB system may not operate.
UMWT will notify all affected vehicle owners officially to update the ECU programming at no charge. The fix should take around an hour. Owners of affected cars can contact an authorised Toyota service centre or use this VIN checker to confirm the status of your vehicle.

What is this? Bread van with big braces?
Just use a normal van la, why use these ugly, cumbersome and overpriced van?
Ask Najib why use this van la. Kenapa tak sapot national van?
Just use fingers la, what is this nonsense calculator…
Yup. I agree the parking brake is separate from the electronic system. Just in case all system down, at least u have your parking brake that operate manually.
Jepunis quality? Hahahahaha!
Proton no need recall. Gud quality
Proton doesn’t have Electronic Parking Brake yet. All current vehicles still using 1950s manual handbrake. Belum masuk 21st Century lagi.
Lotsa other brands still using manual handbrake. Vios & Mivi for example… oh wai
Vios & Mivi (sic) are Models, not Brands…. Oh wai
other brands *models* still… tak paham ke? Oh wai…
Obviously P2 Toyota cybertroopers are around, puiiii
Toyota UMW sales last month beat Proton…..oh wai
Obviously P1 cum BN cybertrolls are still around, puiiiii
