From MSNBC Autos:

"WASHINGTON - Toyota Motor Corp. said Tuesday it will recall 3.8 million vehicles in the United States, the company’s largest-ever U.S. recall, to address problems with a removable floor mat that could cause accelerators to get stuck and lead to a crash.

The recall will involve popular models such as the Toyota Camry, the top-selling passenger car in America, and the Toyota Prius, the best-selling gas-electric hybrid.

Toyota said it was still working with officials with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to find a remedy to fix the problem and said owners could be notified about the recall as early as next week. Toyota spokesman Irv Miller said until the company finds a fix, owners should take out the removable floor mat on the driver’s side and not replace it."

working in the automotive business, while this may hurt toyota's short-term sales, i feel that they build their cars with enough great quality to step out of this mess. i also feel that america's trying to put them down, putting them in the hot seat and defaming their character only to try and bring up sales for u.s. brands as toyota is arguably the #1 car manufacturer in the world. Poo, it's not toyota's fault they built great cars.
