Toyota Recalls 8,521 C-HR Electric SUVs That May Stall While Driving

Toyota is recalling 8,521 model-year 2026 C-HR electric SUVs that may stall while driving, according to a filing listed as NHTSA recall number 26V570. A stall at speed removes motive power without warning, which is the same class of defect behind several other Toyota electric-vehicle recalls this year.

Owner notification letters were scheduled to be mailed between October 18 and November 1, 2026. Owners can check whether their vehicle is included by entering the VIN at Toyota.com/recall or NHTSA.gov/recalls.

The C-HR recall is the smallest of Toyota’s recent electric-vehicle actions — the company recalled 176,737 vehicles in China this week across bZ EVs, Land Cruiser Prado and Lexus GX models — but for the 8,521 owners affected, the advice is the same: get the free fix done before the car decides when to stop.
