Toyota Motor is recalling 885,000 vehicles worldwide to fix air bags issue. The air bags could inadvertently deploy because of an electrical problem, reports The Detroit News.

The recall includes the 2012-2013 Camry, Camry Hybrid, Avalon, Avalon Hybrid and Venza and covers 803,000 vehicles in the United States.

According to Toyota spokeswoman Cindy Knight, two minor injuries have been reported and no crashes.

In the North American market, the automaker has received 35 reports of the air bag warning light turning on, and three reports of inadvertent deployment of the air bag.

“Toyota said water from the air conditioning condenser unit housing could leak water onto the air bag control module and cause a short circuit. That could cause the air bag warning light to turn on, or the air bags could become disabled or could inadvertently deploy.”

The company’s dealers will apply sealant and install a cover to the air conditioning condenser unit housing seam located above the airbag control module.
