These Toyota recalls will be causing considerable damage to their premium brand. more than 2 million automobiles in the United States to correct sticking accelerator pedals. over 4 million vehicles in the United States to correct pedals getting lodged below floor mats. 690,000 vehicles in China due to faulty electrical window switches. Toyota managers on TV to apologise for recall and still the press highlight more concerns as the company gets more fretful. I wonder how much brand value this has cost the company.
