2022-2024 Toyota Second Key Delivery Program Update

Understanding the Second Key Delivery Program

This program addresses an issue where certain 2022-2024 Toyota vehicles were manufactured with only one Smart Key, instead of the usual two. The "Toyota Second Key Delivery Program" aims to supply affected owners with their missing second key. This initiative is being rolled out in phases, with specific timing and vehicle eligibility criteria.

Program Phases and Timing

The "Toyota Second Key Delivery Program" is structured into multiple phases, each with an estimated number of vehicles and an announcement timing. As of the update on June 13, 2024, Phases 1 through 6 have their "Remedy Available". Phases 7 and 8 are scheduled for August 2024 and October 2024, respectively, with the number of vehicles still to be determined (TBD). It's important to note that "Timing subject to change" for future phases.

Vehicle Eligibility and Production Details

Dealers can identify eligible vehicles by checking their production date and matching it against the chart provided by Toyota. This chart details specific models, their production locations, key types (Type #2 (15CY) or Type #3/#4 (19CY)), and the start and end dates for production with only one Smart Key. The approximate vehicle volume for each production batch is also listed.

How to Determine Your Vehicle's Eligibility

To check if your 2022-2024 Toyota vehicle is part of the "Toyota Second Key Delivery Program," you need to confirm its production date. This date can be compared against the "Production Start w/ 1 Smart Key" and "Production End w/ 1 Smart Key" columns in the table above. Once confirmed, locate the model and production month in the color-coded grid (as shown in the original document). The color of the corresponding box indicates which phase your vehicle belongs to, which can then be cross-referenced with the "Program Phases and Timing" table. For example, a 4Runner produced in December 2022, with a dark green box, would be part of Phase 1.

Important Considerations for Owners

Owners should be aware that "VINs are NOT searchable in TNS for applicability." This means you cannot simply use your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to check eligibility through typical online tools. Instead, you must rely on the production date and the phase information provided by Toyota. The program's timing for future phases is explicitly stated as "Timing subject to change," so updates should be monitored for the "Toyota Second Key Delivery Program."
