Toyota Recalls 1 Million Additional VehiclesToyota Motor Corp. says it will recall an additional 1.09 million vehicles in the United States over floor mat problems.
Toyota said the recall would affect five models -- 2008-2010 Highlander, 2009-2010 Corolla, 2009-2010 Venza, 2009-2010 Matrix, and 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe.
The fresh recall comes after the automaker said it would halt sales for the eight models - which make up more than half of Toyota's U.S. sales volume - to fix the gas pedals. Last week, Toyota issued a recall for the same eight models, affecting 2.3 million vehicles.
A private firm said it had identified 275 crashes and 18 deaths because of sudden, uncontrollable acceleration in Toyotas since 1999.
