Things are getting out of control at Toyota. Just after announcing that it will halt the production and sale of eight models affected by the pedal entrapment problem (different from the recalls related to the floor mat issue), Toyota today announced the recall of an additional 1.1 million vehicles for the same problem.
The latest recall affect the following vehicles:
- 2008-2010 Highlander
- 2009-2010 Corolla
- 2009-2010 Venza
- 2009-2010 Matrix
- 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe
With these recent recalls, Toyota has recalled a total of 5.35 million vehicles linked to the sticking pedal issue. The company apparently has some fixes in the pipeline — they can’t get here soon enough.
