Recalls that cover the headlight assembly on the 2019–2025 Corolla

As of September 18, 2026, NHTSA lists no recall on the 2019–2025 Toyota Corolla whose defect is in the headlight assembly. If your car has a warning light or a symptom that a recall could explain, check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls anyway — it takes a minute.

Which headlight assembly a 2019–2025 Corolla takes

Headlights differ between halogen and LED trims, by adaptive or auto-levelling function, and by side. The 2019–2025 Toyota Corolla came with several powertrains, among them 1.8L I4 CVT FWD and 2.0L I4 CVT FWD. That is why we ask for the VIN, or the year, engine and trim, and confirm the part against it before you pay rather than after it arrives.
