Toyota to recall over a million cars in US and Japan
Baku, October 21 (AZERTAC). Toyota has announced a recall of more than 1.5 million cars worldwide over brake and fuel pump defects.
The carmaker said the decision affected certain Avalon, Highlander and Lexus cars, including 740,000 cars in the US, 600,000 in Japan and 17,000 in the UK.
It wants to ensure that fluid does not leak from the brake master cylinder, causing the warning light to turn on.
The fault could cause the brake pedal to feel spongy, and braking performance to "gradually decline".
Toyota says that if the brake warning light is triggered, drivers still have another 200 miles to drive to find help before the brake performance deteriorates.
Toyota is not aware of any accidents because of the issue.
