原文內容:
DETROIT (AP) — Toyota is recalling about 752,000 gas-electric hybrid
vehicles worldwide because the engines can lose power and stall.
The recall covers certain 2013 to 2015 Prius and 2014 to 2017 Prius v hybrids.

The company says in a statement that the hybrids are designed to go into a
fail-safe mode if there are faults in the hybrid system. But in rare
instances, they may not go into fail-safe and the engines could lose power
and stall. Toyota says that power steering and braking would stay on, but at
higher speeds, the stalling could raise the risk of a crash.
Dealers will update the hybrid software at no cost to owners. Anyone who had
an inverter failure with the system faults will get a new one, the company
says.
The recall covers about 267,000 vehicles in the U.S.
Owners will be notified in late August.
心得/說明:(30字以上)
原來toyota的油電車不只在台灣、日本本土可能會熄火,連賣給美國人的車也出
問題而要召回26.7萬部,全球共有75.2萬部油電車要召回。
雖然故障保險機制會自己啟動導致引擎熄火,不過動力轉向和煞車仍可保持運作,
只是怕高速時會增加車禍機率,所以才超前召回這些個案回廠處理。
了不起,負責!
