One of the downfalls from leaving the industry is that I don't always get the inside scoop like I use to.  Much like you, I sometimes have to rely on public announcements to understand what those car people are doing these days.  According to the most recent Toyota Press Release, the manufacturer is shipping new pedals to fix the "Sticky Pedal" issue (whatever that means) to dealers right now.  I still do not know what the problem is, whether a flaw in the pedal design or perhaps some kind of electrical issue that hasn't yet been disclosed.  All I know is that Toyota has recalled somewhere over 4 million vehicles and has stopped sales of what seems like every model.  I heard on the radio that Toyota is loosing $6 million a day because of this and that number is only going to rise once the recall repairs kick in.  Boy, I would hate to get that warranty bill!

 

I will try and keep you in the know with new developments, but for now, you Toyota drivers out there make sure to drive safely.
