DUBLIN – Bad news for Prius owners – Toyota has issued a global recall of late model Prius sedans, Prius Prime hybrids, and certain versions of the C-HRs. Apparently, some assembly problems have raised the risk that the cars could go up in flames, which is obviously not ideal. There are around one million vehicles around the world affected by the recall, which is the second recall this year for the Japanese carmaker – the first was related to the Takata airbag issues. If you have a Prius, especially one purchased in the last couple of years, you should probably check if you're affected by this. – Felicity Duncan
