Toyota is recalling over one million vehicles worldwide over faulty airbags.
The recall covers around 17-thousand Scion xA vehicles made in the U.S. from 2004 through 2006,… and several models in Japan, Europe and elsewhere,.... including the Isis, Avensis, Avensis Wagon and Corolla …built from July 2002 to June of 2015.
Toyota announced on Thursday that an electrical short can damage circuits,... which could deactivate the airbags and seat belt pre-tensioners or cause those systems to deploy accidentally.
Owners will be notified in December and dealers will replace the airbag control unit.
The Japanese carmaker didn't say if the problem had caused any crashes or injuries.
