TOKYO — Toyota recalled 106,000 first-generation Prius hybrid cars globally Wednesday for faulty steering caused by a nut that may come loose. One minor accident suspected of being related to the problem was reported in the U.S., according to Toyota.
The latest recall from Toyota, which has taken a hit to its reputation from massive recalls worldwide, affects vehicles sold in Japan and abroad, including 52,000 Prius cars purchased in the U.S. from 2001 through 2003.
