Toyota Motors is recalling 218,000 Town Ace and Master Ace light commercial vehicles produced between October, 1982, and July, 1985, because of problems with the power steering, a company spokesman said in Tokyo. He said 130,000 of the vans had been sold in 44 countries, including the United States. The center arms of the power steering might break if the steering wheel was turned frequently when the vehicle was stationary, he said.
