17,000 Toyota cars in Thailand to be recalled

BANGKOK: -- Toyota Motor Corp will recall 17,000 cars in Thailand as part of the plan to recall 1.4 million cars globally, it was reported Tuesday.

Reuters reported from Tokyo that Toyota announced it would make the biggest ever recall of its cars, including the Corolla and 15 other models due to trouble with their headlight switching systems.

According to the report, the recall, filed with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, was the biggest for a Japanese auto maker and beat Toyota's previous record recall of 797,707 vehicles in 1999.

Toyota said the vehicles to be recalled were manufactured between May 2000 and August 2002.

Toyota said it would recall about 1.27 million vehicles in Japan in addition to another roughly 140,000 vehicles exported overseas, including about 70,000 cars in Australia, 19,000 cars in Singapore and 17,000 cars in Thailand.
