Toyota to recall over 144,000 U.S. vehicles over rear view camera issue, NHTSA says

Toyota is recalling 144,200 vehicles in the U.S. after the NHTSA warned rearview camera images may not display when the vehicle is placed in reverse, increasing crash risk. The direct financial impact should be modest versus Toyota’s global scale (millions of vehicles), but expect incremental repair/warranty costs, potential regulatory scrutiny and localized downward pressure on affected models' shares (roughly 1–3%).
