A leading newspaper says Toyota will recall 270,000 Prius hybrid vehicles over brake problems in the United States and Japan.

Japan's top business newspaper, Nihon Keizai, said today that Toyota will soon notify Japan's transport ministry and the U.S. Department of Transportation of the recall.

Takayuki Fujimoto, a transport ministry official, said the government has yet to receive a recall notice from Toyota.

Toyota spokeswoman Ririko Takeuchi said the company has not yet decided whether to recall the model in the US and Japan.
