Toyota Recalls Prius, Lexus HS250 h Hybrids




It's official. Toyota is recalling a total of 148,500 hybrid vehicles in the U.S...133,000 2010 Toyota Prius models and 14,500 of the new Lexus HS250h...to update software in the cars' anti-lock brake systems.

Given the prickly retaliatory mood at least one Toyota dealer group is in about "excessive" reporting of Toyota's current issues, we'll let Toyota itself fill in the details of the recall with its official press release. Read it all...there's also a recall of 7,300 4-cylinder Camrys for an unrelated brake problem mentioned in the final paragraph.
