Toyota has announced that they will halt North American productionof eight models, including the top-selling Corolla, until an issuerelated to the accelerator is resolved. The company also expanded arecall related to a sticking gas pedal that has been linked to 20deaths and 2,000 complaints, according to safety experts.
Although the problem has been reported in Europe, the recall and stop-sale order only affects North America.
In addition to the Corolla, the world's largest automaker isfreezing sales and assembly of the Avalon, Camry, Highlander, Matrix,RAV4, Sequoia, and Tundra. 56% of Toyota's December U.S. sales camefrom one of those eight models. The company is also closing sevenfactories in North America for at least a week while the situation isinvestigated internally.
Toyota first linked the sudden acceleration problem to faulty floormats, which led to the recall of 2.5 million vehicles. This week'sannouncement expands the recall to cover 4.8 million vehicles soldsince 2005. The complaints were first reported to Toyota by Tundraowners in 2007.
Despite one Toyota PR flack saying that the problem is rare, ToyotaU.S. sales chief Bob Carter said, "This action is necessary until aremedy is finalized." The uncontrolled acceleration is believed to becaused by a part in the accelerator that swells over time in humidconditions, but until recently the company had disregarded the problemas a "drivability issue unrelated to safety."
"We're making every effort to address this situation for our customers as quickly as possible," Carter said.
Toyota models recalled include:
2005-2010 Avalon
some 2007-2010 Camrys
2009-2010 Corolla
2010 Highlander
2009-2010 Matrix

在這裡多口提醒大家
當遇到油門無法控制，車速提升時
大家可以將波棍從D波段推至N波位置

最起碼佢肯去停產，停賣搵解決問題辦法作者: daball 時間: 2010-1-30 03:52 AM
佢係乜問題唔知, 但好多人鐘意求其買多張 carpet 加上面, 有 d 又大張又厚, 放落去唔覺唔覺咁移前, 跟著就會頂住個 paddel 返唔到原位, 頂住個 clutch 就入波問題, 頂住個油門就唔識收油, 再移前 d 就唔係頂住唔識返, 係踏落去都有問題, 咁如果架車行緊就停都停唔到.
Toyota 呢單野背後玩乜? GM Ford 以為可以舒口氣.......作者: daball 時間: 2010-1-30 04:07 AM
