Toyota Motor Sales is recalling more than 5 million cars after discoveries that certain vehicles may have defective brake pedals stick and putting passengers at risk.
On January 21, Toyota announced the recall and suspension of sales of eight different models due to a CTS accelerator pad that was found to stick or release slowly in some cases.
While the initial recall was said to only affect 2.3 million vehicles, by Thursday that figure had expanded to 5.3 million as additional car models were found to be defective as well.
In total, CNN reported that the models affected by the recall are: 2009-2010 RAV4, 2009-2010 Corolla, 2009-2010 Matrix, 2005-2010 Avalon, certain 2007-2010 Camrys, 2007-2010 Tundra, 2008-2010 Sequoia, 2008-2010 Highlander, 2009-2010 Venza, and 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe.
While Toyota has been proactive in fixing the problem affecting their vehicles through the recall, numerous other issues can result in cars with problems staying on the road if a car company believes it is not worth a recall.
If you have a vehicle with a defect that has the potential to be dangerous but is not being recalled by the dealer, taking out a payday loan to get the problem fixed may be a simple way to avoid a deadly situation.
