Toyota has recalled 880,000 sports utility vehicles (SUVs) and pick-up trucks worldwide due to front suspension problems.
The BBC said Tundra pick-up trucks and Sequoia, Landcruiser Prado and 4Runner/Hilux Surf SUVs built between May 2001 and December 2003 are affected – the majority were sold in the US, while the rest were sold in Japan, Europe and Australia.
A Toyota spokesman told the broadcaster there had been one report of an accident in Japan but no details of how much the recall would cost were available.
