(Reuters) -Toyota Motor Corp is recalling 106,061 U.S. vehicles over a brake fluid leak that can reduce braking ability and increase the risk of a crash, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Tuesday.
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, the U.S. auto safety regulator said.
Dealers will replace both rear brake hoses free of charge, the NHTSA added.
