Default Toyota recalls 75,000 Prius hybrid cars in U.S.

Quote:
Toyota Motor Corp. said Thursday it is recalling about 75,000 Prius hybrid cars as the gasoline engine may stall due to a software problem in the electric motor control system. The cars subject to the recall are from the 2004 and 2005 models.

Even if the gasoline engine of the Prius cars in question stalls, the electric motor in them will have enough power to allow drivers to steer to the side of the road, Toyota said.
