Around 102,000 Toyota and Lexus branded vehicles are a part of the recall, the company said.

The recall is being conducted because machining debris may not have been cleared from the engine during the vehicle’s production.

If the debris remains in the engine, it could increase the chances of being in an accident, according to Toyota.

Toyota and Lexus dealers can replace the engines without charge for customers.
