Toyota 86 MY18 recalled over fuel pump issue

Toyota is recalling examples of its 86 model as it has been discovered the coupe’s fuel pump may stop working suddenly.

Affecting a total of 367 units, the faulty fuel pump could potentially cut supply to the engine, causing the car to stop and possibly cause damage internally.

The same fault forced Subaru to issue a recall notice for a range of its vehicles last week, including the BRZ which is twinned with the 86.
