Toyota recalling 600,000 Sienna minivans to address corrosion in spare tire carrier cable
April 16th 2010, Ken Thomas, THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Toyota says the recall affects the 1998-2010 model year Siennas that have been operated in cold-climate areas.

The automaker says corrosion from road salt could cause the carrier cable to fail. The spare tire could become separated from the vehicle and cause a road hazard for other vehicles.
