On Thursday, Toyota announced that they are recalling 516,000 vehicles worldwide due to three hazardous safety issues. 

The 516,000 vehicles that are being recalled include 430,500 in the United States. The cars are being recalled due to safety issues such as brakes that can activate without warning, ABC 13 reports. 

The company said there are no reports of accidents or injuries due to the faulty parts. Toyota said they will alert car owners and dealers about all three problems, as well as fix the cars free of charge. 

The largest recall -- 450,000 Sienna minivans ranging from 2004-2011 -- targets the vehicles sold in cold weather areas, because road salt can corrode the spare tire carrier under the vehicle, which can cause it to fall off. 

Siennas from the 2004-2010 model years were also recalled due to the same problem in 2010. The recalled vehicles were given a splash protector and anti-rust protection. However, the company now says the splash protector can fall off, and the vehicle can still rust. 

The company is recalling 370,000 minivans in the U.S., 80,000 in Canada and 400 in Europe. 

Toyota is also calling for the recall of 16,000 Lexus GS 250 and 350 Sedans, both from 2013, because of the brake defect. The brakes also fail to turn on the brake lights. Left-hand-drive sedans that are sold in China, Canada and Europe are also being recalled. 

Also, 50,000 Highland and Highlander hybrid SUVs from 2014 are being recalled due to a software issue that may prevent the car from knowing the size of the front passenger when figuring out whether or not to release the air bags.

The recalled vehicles think the passenger is smaller, so the bags may not fire, or fire at a lower speed. Most of the affected vehicles were sold in the United States, and around 3,000 were sold in Canada.
