Toyota and Chrysler issue recalls

New York - Japanese automakers Toyota and Honda and US rival Chrysler have recalled tens of thousands of vehicles in the United States for a range of problems, according to a US government agency website on Monday. 

Toyota is recalling 22 000 vehicles from model years 2008 to 2011 - including Tacoma and Tundra pickup trucks, Land Cruiser and Sequoia vehicles - because of problems with their tyre pressure monitoring system, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said. 

Honda issued a recall of 36 656 Honda Civic hybrid vehicles, model years 2006 and 2007, to fix a faulty electrical system battery. 

Chrysler notified the NHTSA that it was recalling 20 459 Jeep Wrangler vehicles from model years 2010-2011 because of problems with axle attachments that could lead to the loss of directional control. - Sapa-AFP
