Toyota Prius Recall: Toyota Makes Statement

February 4, 2010 by ModernMom Staff Leave a Comment

Toyota made a statement regarding the possible problems with the Prius Hybrid's brake pedal. They recognized the problem, but are confident that most cars are safe. They did not issue a recall. The statement is below. 

"We want to make sure our customers understand that this situation is rare and generally does not occur suddenly. In the rare instances where it does occur, the vehicle can be controlled with firm and steady application of the brakes.

Our message to Toyota owners is this – if you experience any issues with your accelerator pedal, please contact your dealer without delay. If you are not experiencing any issues with your pedal, we are confident that your vehicle is safe to drive.

Nothing is more important to Toyota than the safety and reliability of the vehicles our customers drive. Our entire organization of 172,000 North American employees and dealership personnel is working around the clock to fix the accelerator pedals for our customers."
