| Description of the problem | Toyota should recall all older models relating to pedal accelerator. Toyota should be recalling all related vehicles as far back as 2003 models if it already knows the computer component in those cars have the same pedal accelerator problems as the newer models. Why aren't they made to do that? I have a 2005 toyota highlander and i am worried everytime i get in my car now. |
