April 12 (Bloomberg) -- Toyota Motor Corp.’s Taiwan representative offered to fix faults in 200,000 vehicles from eight models, including the Camry and Yaris, made in the island.
Hotai Motor Co. won’t charge customers who bought the vehicles made between April 1, 2006 and Nov. 18, 2009 by its affiliate Kuozui Motors, the company said in a statement on its Web site today.
Inspections showed that sealant used on windows, doors, and engine hoods may crack and water may seep into the vehicles, according to the statement.
While the sealant problem doesn’t affect safety it would result in rusting problems if left untreated for a long time, Hotai said in the statement.
Toyota, the world’s largest automaker, recalled more than 8 million vehicles worldwide starting last year to repair two types of acceleration related defects.
