Toyota Motor Corp., meanwhile, recalled 978,000 sport utility vehicles and
pickup trucks over complaints that a rod linking the steering wheel and the
wheels could fracture when the steering wheel is turned while the vehicle is
stopped. The affected vehicles include the 1990-1995 4Runner SUV, 1989-1995
truck 4WD and 1993-1998 T-100 pickup.
Toyota said its recall would begin in mid-September and was based on seven
confirmed cases of the power-steering problem in T100 vehicles. No crashes
have been tied to the issue.
