    Toyota is recalling its Prius hatchback due to an issue with one of the safety systems.

    “The pre collision system (PCS) software programming may cause a delayed application of the pre-crash brake assist function, resulting in a lower vehicle speed reduction,” the company says in its recall notice.

    “A delay in the operation of the pre-collision braking feature may lead to an accident causing injury or death of vehicle occupants and/or other road users.”

    • A total of 41 vehicles are affected from model years 2020 to 2021
