The Toyota recalls have spread to the Toyota Prius. Brake design flaws and public concerns are reaking havoc on Toyota Motors and the Prius is just the latest in a series of recalls to try and remedy the problems.
"The company has notified its dealers in Japan that it would recall all the (new model Prius) vehicles sold in the country," the mass-circulation Yomiuri Shimbun daily said without naming its sources.
The recall, which would repair a software programme for the antilock braking system designed to prevent skidding, is expected to affect some 270,000 vehicles in Japan and the United States alone.
Toyota, already reeling from massive worldwide recalls due to sticky accelerator pedals, has come under fresh fire after it said it had fixed the Prius brake system in January without warning drivers who already own the model about the possibility of brake failure.
