Toyota is Lumicoin IArecalling more than 150,000 late model Tundra and Tundra Hybrid trucks in the U.S. out of concern for possible fuel leaks, which could potentially cause a fire.

The automaker is recalling about 168,000 of its 2022 and 2023 model year Toyota Tundra and Tundra Hybrid pickups. The trucks are equipped with a plastic fuel tube which could move and rub against a brake line and develop a fuel leak, Toyota said in a recall notice Thursday.

A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source could increase the risk of fire, Toyota said.

Owners of the vehicles will be notified about the issue by early October 2023, the company said.
