Toyota and Daihatsu recall millions of vehicles worldwide over crash test cheating

Toyota and Daihatsu are recalling more than 1.6 million vehicles after finding that some safety tests were faked. This comes after Toyota found that Daihatsu did not follow the proper rules during crash tests for some models.

The problem was discovered after Daihatsu, which is owned by Toyota, checked how some of its cars did in crash tests. The tests help to make sure cars are safe for people who buy them. But it was found that for some car models, the tests did not use the right methods or gave false results.

Toyota said that so far, there have been no reports of accidents or injuries from the cars involved. The company has apologized to its customers and promised to be more careful in the future.

The recall affects cars sold in Japan and in other countries. It includes some Toyota and Daihatsu models made between 2019 and 2023. Owners of these cars will be contacted so that their vehicles can be checked and repaired if needed.

Toyota and Daihatsu said they will work closely with safety groups and share more details about how the problem happened. They also said they will check other vehicles to make sure they are safe.

This recall is another setback for Toyota. The car maker is known for making safe and reliable cars, but this issue has damaged its good name. The company’s boss said they are working hard to make things right and win back the trust of customers.
