June 4 (Reuters) -
Toyota ( TM ) will recall over 100,000 SUVs and pickup
trucks in the U.S. over debris in the engine potentially causing
it to stall, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) said on Tuesday.
The recall includes some Toyota Tundra pickup trucks and
Lexus LX600 SUVs equipped with the Japanese automaker's V35A
six-cylinder engine.
Debris from the manufacturing process may contaminate
the engine and cause the main bearings to fail, which can result
in an engine stall and loss of drive power, the NHTSA said.
The NHTSA added that a remedy was currently under
development.
