Toyota issues recall on some 2010 4-cylinder model Camrys

(February 10, 2010) Toyota issued another recall Tuesday. This one on certain early production 2010 model year Camry vehicles equipped with the 4-cylinder engine.

A power steering pressure hose in the engine compartment may be the incorrect length. If this condition exists, a crimp on the power steering pressure hose may come in contact with the No. 7 front brake tube.

Should this condition continue, a hole may wear in the brake tube and deplete the brake fluid in the vehicle. As a result, the brake pedal stroke will increase and lead to greater vehicle stopping distance.

There are about 7,300 Camry vehicles in the U.S. are involved.

Any Toyota dealer will inspect and, if necessary, adjust the space between the brake tube and the power steering pressure hose crimp. Based upon the inspection results, the dealership may need to replace the brake tube. Toyota will notify owners by mail starting in mid-February.
