Hilux (Vigo) Recall in Oz

Toyota recalls 4WD Hiluxes

Toyota is recalling more than 116,000 four-wheel drive Hilux vehicles in Australia because of a faulty support bracket.

The bracket could give way on models manufactured between January 2005 and February this year, resulting in a loss of drive to the rear wheels.

Nineteen cases have been reported in Australia.

Toyota spokeswoman Laura Hill says owners can continue to drive their vehicles until they are contacted by the company.........

As this vehicle is essentially the same as the local Vigo, perhaps 4WD owners should be chatting with their local Toyota distributor.

Reminds me of the 1970's and the w@nkers British Leyland produced.
