■Automatic Collision Notifi-
cation
In case of either airbag deploy-
ment or severe rear-end colli-
sion, the system is designed to 
automatically call the response 
center. The responding agent 
receives the vehicle’s location 
and attempts to speak with the 
vehicle occupants to assess the 
level of emergency. If the occu-
pants are unable to communi-
cate, the agent automatically 
treats the call as an emergency, 
contacts the nearest emer-
gency services provider to 
describe the situation, and 
requests that assistance be sent 
to the location.
■Stolen Vehicle Location
If your vehicle is stolen, Safety 
Connect can work with local 
authorities to assist them in 
locating and recovering the 
vehicle. After filing a police 
report, call the Customer Experi-
ence Center at 1-800-331-4331 
in the United States, 
1-877-855-8377 in Puerto Rico 
or 1-888-869-6828 in Canada, 
and follow the prompts for 
Safety Connect to initiate this 
service.
In addition to assisting law 
enforcement with recovery of a 
stolen vehicle, Safety-Con-
nect-equipped vehicle location 
data may, under certain circum-
stances, be shared with third 
parties to locate your vehicle. 
Further information is available 
at Toyota.com in the United 
States, Toyotapr.com in Puerto 
Rico and Toyota.ca in Canada.
