Toyota has issued an urgent recall for more than 45,000 vehicles sold in Australia between October 2013 and April 2020 due to fears the fuel pumps could stop working, causing drivers to stop suddenly.

The recall includes popular models of Toyota cars such as Camry, Corolla, Prado, Hilux and Land cruisers.

In a statement, Toyota explained that the fuel pump on affected vehicles may stop operating suddenly, and if the fuel pump stops working, warning lights and messages may display on the instrument panel, and the engine may not run correctly. This can cause the vehicle to stall, or be unable to restart.
