Detroit, MI) -- Toyota now says it will fix all 2000 to 2003 model year Tundra pickups sold in the U.S. to address a risk over frame corrosion.
Last November, the car maker recalled 110,000 Tundras sold in 20 cold-weather states.
At the time, Toyota said exposure to heavy road salt could lead to corrosion, which could cause spare tires or even the gas tank to drop onto the road.
Toyota told its U.S. dealers in a notice yesterday that it would expand the recall to Tundras sold in all 50 states.
Company spokesman Brian Lyons wasn't able to say how many additional vehicles would be involved.
Toyota has recalled more than eight million vehicles worldwide for mechanical problems with its accelerator assembly and over floor mats that could cause the accelerator to stick.
In February, Toyota recalled nearly 500,000 hybrids, including its top-selling Prius, because of braking problems.
