Toyota Motor Corp. plans to recall about 95,700 vehicles sold in the cold-weather areas of the U.S. because of possible brake problems.

The recall affects 2009 and 2010 Toyota Corollas and Corolla Matrixes and 2008 and 2009 Scion xDs, all equipped with 1.8-liter engines. The Japanese auto giant said it found that at extremely low temperatures, moisture from a ventilation port may seep into the brake system and freeze, leading to braking problems.

On Monday, Toyota recalled nearly 700,000 cars in China because of faulty window-control systems -- its largest recall in that country and one that risks tarnishing the company's image.
