Toyota recalling more than 400,000 vehicles in Saudi Arabia

(Reuters) - Toyota Motor Corp is recalling more than 400,000 vehicles in Saudi Arabia that were produced from 2006 to 2010 due to concerns about unintended acceleration, the company and Saudi Arabia's trade ministry said. This is the same issue that led to the recall of nearly 19 million Toyota vehicles worldwide from late 2009 to early 2011. Toyota and its agent in Saudi Arabia, Abdul Latif Jameel Co, will install brake override systems in the affected vehicles, the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Commerce and Industry said in a statement this week. This is the second country, after the United States, where installation of the brake override system to prevent runaway Toyota vehicles has been required, the statement said.
