Today the Toyota Motor Corporation said it will be recalling 1.53 million cars today. These cars include lexus, avalon, and many other models. The reason for the recall is that there are problems with the fuel pump and there is also problems with the brake fluid. Within one year Toyota has recalled over 10 million cars for many different reasons, these recalls have made people question the quality reputation that Toyota has built for all these years. The main spokes person for Toyota says that the problems with the brake fluid could lead to weaker breaking power. Although the problems have been noted there have been no accidents caused by these problems yet.
I believe that problems and recalls like this shouldn't be happening. Toyota has a reputation to protect they have good quality products. The manufacturers should be double and triple checking all the cars for maintenance issues. Malfunctions in a car could cause near death or deadly consequences. If a car is not up to standard it should be up the to manufacturer to make sure that the product is built correctly. The problem with recalls is that people don't have the time to go out and waste their time on a car that they purchased because Toyota made a problem. Another problem with recalls is that many of the companies have no idea what order or who's car to replace or fix first, cost is also another issue preventing people from sending their car in for a recall because often they have to pay for a rental car or pay for a taxi to get around to places that they need to get around to. For these reasons i believe that recalls; especially for automotive companies should be prevented.
