Toyota Initiates Their Largest Company Recall Ever

Vehicle manufacturing giant, Toyota, announced Tuesday that it will recall 3.8 million vehicles in the United States. To check out the article:http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Toyota-to-recall-38M-vehicles-apf-1798738225.html?x=0 .
The problem arose when reports were made that the accelerator pedal was jammed causing cars to speed out of control, which could result in crashes in which consequences such as injury or death could occur. Although many companies may have been reluctant to undergo such a massive recall on relatively small numbers of incidents, I think it's important that such a huge company is willing to protect it's customers and everyone else on the road who could come into contact with these vehicles. Toyota makes a wise decision teaming up with officials from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to make sure all problems are dealt with and all those affected will be notified.
