Toyota is world's number one vehicle seller for the last few years, so if it announces a recall, hundreds of thousands of vehicles are usually involved in it. A few months ago there was a great Toyota recall in the U.S. which affected over 4 million cars, and in the end of January National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has requested a new recall which concerns 2.3 million Toyota autos.

The manufacturer has to work on accelerator pedals which can wear out and become “sticky over time”. The recall does not include Lexus or Scion brands, but a lot of Toyota vehicles: 2009-2012 R4V4, 2009-2010 Corolla, 2009-2010 Matrix, 2005-2010 Avalon, 2007-2010 Camry, 201 Highlander, 2007-2010 Tundra, and 2008-2010 Sequoia.

Toyota says that the so called “dangerous acceleration” is a rare issue and as a rule, occurs after wear or tear on the gas pedal. Before the owners of the abovementioned models can bring them to dealerships for fixing, the manufacturer recommends using floor mats which prevent the pedal sticking.

In order to avoid the reputation damage, Toyota is expanding the recall to the vehicles sold in Mexico too.
