Toyota and Lexus Trim Melting Class Action Investigation

Chimicles Schwartz Kriner & Donaldson-Smith is investigating a potential class action concerning reports of melting or warping exterior trim parts on certain Toyota and Lexus vehicles.

This issue has been documented on models including the 2024 Lexus GX550, Toyota Land Cruiser 250 series, Toyota RAV4 (2018–2024), and 2025 Toyota 4Runner.
