Toyota recalls older models
Toyota Motor Corp. is recalling 337,000 vehicles for a third time.
The recall involves the Toyota RAV4 SUV from the 2006-2011 model years and the Lexus HS250h from 2010.
Toyota first recalled the vehicles in 2012. This time, Toyota found that rust can form on the suspension arm threads if the nuts for the rear wheel alignment weren’t tightened correctly. If that happens, the suspension arm could separate from the vehicle and cause the driver to lose control.
Toyota will contact owners and replace both rear suspension arm assemblies for free.
