Toyota Motors Corp. is recalling 130,000 of its 2014 model Tundra large pickup trucks to fix interior trim that could interfere with deployment of side airbags, Reuters reports.
Toyota says trim on the vehicle's B-pillar that was not installed correctly during assembly could block the airbag during inflation. The company reports no injuries or fatalities related to the assembly process error.
