Oct 21 Toyota Motor Corp said on Wednesday it would recall 6.5 million vehicles globally to fix a defect in the power window switch in models including the Yaris/Vitz subcompact, Corolla, Camry and others. Of the total, about 2.7 million are in North America, 1.2 million in Europe, and 600,000 in Japan, the automaker said. It said it was not aware of any crashes caused by the glitch. Toyota said modules in the power window master switch may have been lubricated inconsistently during the manufacturing process.

That in turn could cause the switch assembly to overheat and melt, and potentially lead to a fire, it said. Read more http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/10/21/toyota-recall-idUST9N11G01P20151021
