Toyota has started recalling more than 90,000 luxury Lexus and Crown vehicles in Japan over defective engines - the latest setback for the automaker beset with quality problems.
Toyota Motor Corp. spokesman Paul Nolasco said recalls in overseas markets will follow soon, totaling to about 270,000 vehicles globally - 138,000 in the US, 4,000 in Canada, 6,000 in China, 15,000 in Europe, 10,000 in the Middle East and 8,000 in other regions.
Toyota told the Japanese government Monday it was recalling 91,903 vehicles for flaws in the valve springs, a crucial engine component, that could make the automobile stall while in motion.
The quality problem affecting top-of-the-line products comes as Toyota struggles to move on from massive global recalls that started in October.
