INDIANA – Toyota is recalling 106,000 U.S. vehicles over a brake fluid leak that can reduce braking ability and increase the risk of a crash.
The recall affects certain 2024-2025 Tacoma four-wheel drive vehicles.
The clearance between the rear brake hose and wheel may allow mud and dirt to build up, which can damage the brake hose and lead to a brake fluid leak.
Toyota dealerships plan to replace the brake hoses with upgraded ones, free of charge. However, drivers may have to wait a few months for the fix to become available.
Currently, only four-wheel drive pickups with 16-inch brakes and 17-inch wheels are included in the recall. Toyota says it is still investigating whether other Tacomas may be affected.
