Toyota recalls 1 million cars in the U.S.

Fresh from reclaiming its crown as the world’s largest automaker, Toyota has been hit by another major recall. The Japanese carmaker said Wednesday it was recalling more than 1 million vehicles sold in the United States over faulty airbags and windshield wipers. The airbag control issue affects about 752,000 Corolla and Corolla Matrix cars sold in 2003 and 2004. And the windshield wiper issue affects some 270,000 Lexus IS models sold between 2006 and early 2012.
