SINGAPORE – Some 1,300 Toyota Prius cars are being recalled in Singapore over a fault in the rear electric doors, which can cause them to open while the car is in motion.Borneo Motors Singapore, the authorised distributor of Toyota here, is notifying the owners by post.Based on information posted on the Land Transport Authority’s (LTA) electronic vehicle recall system, the rear doors of the popular hybrid car can unlock unexpectedly because of a short circuit caused by water entering the system.In response to The Straits Times, Borneo Motors said on Feb 27 that the rectification involves modifying the left and right rear door switch circuits, to prevent the switch from activating if a short circuit occurs.A short circuit may happen if large amounts of water enter the rear door opener switch, such as during a car wash, after its seal – a protective barrier around the switch – degrades over time.If the door is shut with force, water may seep into the switch. Should the water contain detergent, it could trigger the switch and cause the rear doors to open.
