Toyota, Lexus Recall for Engine Flaw

Toyota says that as many as seven Lexus models, as well as one Toyota make, have a problem with their engines that could cause them to stall while moving. On Thursday, the already beleaguered company announced it would recall those 270,000 cars. So far, no accidents have been linked to the flaw and the company did not say how it discovered the faulty engines. The affected models are: Lexus GS 350, GS 450h, GS 460, IS 350, LS 460, LS 600h and LS 600h L, as well as the Toyota Crown. Though this recall is dwarfed by the that of eight million Toyotas earlier this year over acceleration problems, more safety problem could further damage the company’s brand.
