Toyota is recalling the 2005-2008 Corolla and Matrix due to a stalling risk.
Update: General Motors has confirmed that the Pontiac Vibe, which shares its underpinnings with the Matrix, has also been affected. We’ve got GM’s press release after the jump with more info.
The 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe was one of the affected cars in Toyota’s second accelerator recall, due to its Toyota Matrix underpinnings. General Motors is reporting that repair parts are now coming in.
Toyota has announced that they will halt both sales and production of all cars affected by their recent accelerator recall. The cars were recalled due to an issue with the accelerator mechanism, which could cause the accelerator to jam.
Toyota has issued a voluntary recall, yet again involving the possibility of accelerators jamming. This time, less cars are affected, and the cause is different as well.
