又到Toyota Sienna回收

Simon

豐田汽車問題沒完沒了，繼日前凌志 GX460多用途消閒車（ SUV）被指有翻車危險要停售後，在北美洲大受歡迎的 Sienna七座位旅行車，因後備車胎有可能飛脫問題，豐田前天（周五）宣佈在美加回收 87萬輛。


後備車胎可能飛脫
今次要回收的 Sienna七人車是 1998年至 2010年出廠，美國佔 60萬輛，加拿大佔 27萬輛。豐田表示， Sienna若在結冰路面行駛，而公路倘若撒了含鹽的融雪劑，車身後面備用的車胎架鋼纜，可能因銹蝕而斷裂，以致後備車胎飛脫，對尾隨的車輛構成危險。美國國家公路交通安全局表示，已接獲六宗後備車胎脫落的投訴個案。
另外，豐田前天證實美國《消費者報道》指凌志 GX460確有翻車危險， GX460車會繼續在全球暫停售賣，直至問題解決為止。

TOKYO –Toyota Motor Corp. said Thursday that it is preparing to fix a problem with engines installed in up to 270,000 vehicles sold worldwide.

The affected models include its Lexus LS, Lexus GS, Lexus IS and the company's Toyota Crown, a spokeswoman said.

She added that the company has found a problem with the engine valve in the vehicles, which may cause the engine to stall when the vehicle is running.
