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.

The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) will review its medical classification system to make it more «precise», Defence Minister Chan Chun Sing said in Parliament on Friday (Feb 27).The move will allow full-time national servicemen (NSF) to be deployed to vocations that they were previously not eligible for, he added during his ministry’s budget debate.The Ministry of Defence (Mindef) uses a medical classification system since 1967 to classify soldiers into Physical Employment Standard (PES) grades A to F. It also takes into account existing medical conditions or past injuries.Those under PES A and B1 are suited for all combat vocations, such as guards and infantry, while non-combat-fit national servicemen (NSmen) who are C2 and C9 are eligible for some roles like supply and transport.But Chan noted that many new roles in the SAF no longer depend solely on the traditional notions of physical or operational fitness.«Combat categorisation in the past tended to stream our servicemen based on what people could not do. But we can unlock our people’s potential if we shift towards focusing on what they can do.»
