Toyota recalling 1 million hybrids for fire risk

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – Some Toyota Prius vehicles have a serious problem that needs to be fixed.

According to CNN Money, Toyota is recalling Prius, Prius plug-in hybrid and C-HR SUV models produced between June 2015 and May 2018.

It includes about 192,000 cars in the United States.
