Toyota<\/a> announced a recall of nearly 700,000 cars on Thursday, citing potential problems with the airbags and brake lights. The issue affects Camrys, Venzas and Tacomas ranging from as far back as 2005 all the way through 2011 model years, The Wall Street Journal reports.<\/p>\n

The issue in the Venza and Camry recall is that silicon grease may have made its way into the stop-lamp switch during assembly. As a result of the defect, some cars could experience problems as minor as the warning lights on the dashboard turning on. However, drivers could also experience more significant problems like the engine having trouble starting or the transmission being shifted out of park.<\/p>\n

As for the Tacoma, the potential issue has to do with the steering wheel spiral cable. The manufacturer says that the cable can potentially rub against its container, causing friction that could disrupt the function of the driver's airbags, according to the newspaper.<\/p>\n

Toyota is not the only major company to announce a significant recall recently. Chrysler<\/a> just recalled around 210,000 Jeep<\/a> Liberties from the 2004 and 2005 model years that could potentially lose their rear wheels, USA Today reports. The company says that the vehicles were constructed with rear lower control arms that potentially may rust through, which could cause a crash.<\/p>\n

In addition to staying on top of recalls, regular auto maintenance is a crucial part of making sure your car runs smoothly. New Jersey State Auto<\/a> Auction's Total Car Care center is a great place to go for all of your maintenance needs, whether it be general upkeep or a repair. With a knowledgeable staff, NJ Auto makes sure you'll be able to keep driving your car for years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
