Toyota Recalls
Prado Sold In
Costa Rica
Purdy Motor de
Costa Rica, the
exclusive new
car dealer for
Toyota in Costa
Rica, has issued
a recall of 2010
Land Cruiser
Prado models
sold between
October 2009 and
this month.
In total 79
vehicle owners
will be asked to
bring their
vehicle back to
the shop to
update the
suspension
software used by
the vehicle.
Luis Mastroeni
said that the
vehicles could
slide sideways
at high speeds
over 100 km/h,
due to the
insufficient
activation of
the vehicle
stability-control
system.
The recall is
part of Toyota's
world wide
recall of 34.000
Lexus GX460 and
Land Cruiser
Prado.
To reduce the
risk of sliding,
Toyota will
enhance the
system software.
The automaker
also has
announced a
recall on all
Prius vehicles
produced this
year — 433,000
worldwide -
because of
problems with
the brakes.
