The recall includes some Toyota Tundra pickup trucks and Lexus LX600 SUVs with the V35A six-cylinder engine.

Deposits from the manufacturing process could contaminate the engine and cause main bearing failure, the company said, which NHTSA said could lead to engine stalling and loss of power.

According to NHTSA, a cure is currently being worked on.

Owners of Toyota and Lexus vehicles can check their Vehicle Identification Number on either the Toyota or Lexus recall page.
