Toyota has announced its second huge recall of vehicles in as many months in a move affecting almost 2.8 million cars world-wide.
The company blames problems with steering mechanisms and its hybrid system water pump.
The Japanese firm said it was recalling 1.5 million vehicles in Japan, 670,000 in the United States and 496,000 in Europe to correct steering intermediate extension shafts which can be damaged at slow speed.
But it insisted that the problem, seen in cars such as the second-generation Prius and certain Corolla models, could be fixed in about 50 minutes.
