Over 400,000 Toyota vehicles, including their popular smug-mobile the Prius and new Yaris models, have been hit with a recall today which would involve fixing the engine before complete and total failure of said motor.
While no accidents have been caused by this engine malfunction, this is the third recall in less than two months involving Toyota and its luxury arm Lexus, which is not a signal of reliability for the usually upstanding company.
Another recent recall involved the engine brackets of some Toyota trucks breaking under stress, resulting in the motor physically dropping out of the vehicle, which could seriously put a damper on your off-roading fun.
