Toyota is recalling Corolla Cross Hybrid SUVs to update the braking software. Drivers may notice a hard pedal or increased braking distance when braking in a corner.

Toyota needs to fix more than 42,000 Corolla Cross Hybrid models in the United States because of a fault related to a brake actuator and the skid control ECU which may impact braking performance.

The Japanese automaker says the recall is necessary because of a problem with the brakes that can increase the risk of a crash. In some cases, while attempting to turn a corner, drivers may experience a hard brake pedal. If that happens, it can lead to the stopping distance being more than expected.

The Toyota Corolla Cross is making waves as an incredibly budget-friendly crossover, but how does the hybrid compare when it comes to fuel economy?

The 2025 Toyota Corolla Hybrid rolls into the new model year with a $24,760 base price and a larger infotainment touchscreen for higher trim levels.

The hybrid version of the Corolla Cross has been hit with a safety recall. An estimated 42,199 vehicles have been produced for the US market with a specific brake actuator assembly supplied by Bosch, with said assembly containing iffy software for the skid control electronic control unit.
