Toyota again recalling 880,584 RAV4, Lexus sedans

DETROIT, MI

RAV4s from the 2006 through 2011 model years and 2010 Lexus HS250hs are involved.

Toyota says if rear suspension nuts aren't tightened properly after a wheel alignment, the arms can rust and separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

At least nine crashes and three injuries are related to the problem.

Toyota recalled the vehicles last August for the same issue, but a spokeswoman says the repair procedure wasn't correct.

Toyota is recalling 780,584 vehicles in the U.S. and 100,000 in Canada. Owners will be notified over a six-month period starting this month.
