Torrance - New problems at Toyota: The Japanese carmaker has called back in the U.S. around 8000 cars in its pick-up model Tacoma. The cars need to be investigated with the drive because of possible problems. The so-called front driveshaft at worst, could tear out the anchorage and touch the ground, they said. This is a danger that the driver loses control of his vehicle.
Of concern was the four-wheel drive version of 2010, said a spokesman with New York. According to a U.S. government representative of the faulty drive is from the American supplier Dana. The latter had informed the Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA already accepted that Nissan and Ford may be affected by the manufacturing defect. According to Toyota, much of the affected models should not be sold.
The Japanese car company has been struggling for months with a range of margins. Due to technical problems had to Toyota since last autumn, almost 8.7 million cars worldwide recall. In the U.S. alone, he already had 2.3 million vehicles because of dangerous defects back on the accelerator. With 437,000 hybrid Prius brand cars, the brakes are also flawed.
After strong criticism of its information from car manufacturers want Japanese newspaper claims to continue to fully inform their customers - even over small imperfections, such as not properly closing doors.
In addition to Toyota and Volkswagen needs to recall more vehicles. After Brazil, the German car makers are now ordered in Mexico around 20,000 cars in the garage. There was a risk that the wheel bearings on the rear wheels were not properly lubricated, and thus it could lead to a deformation of the tire, said the Volkswagen plant in Puebla on Friday.
There were indications that are of the "precautionary action" only the models and Gol Gol Sedan affected. One day earlier had recalled because of problems with VW wheel bearings almost 200,000 vehicles of the models Novo Gol and Voyage in Brazil in the workshops.
