The Toyota Recall and the Philadelphia International Auto Show
Listen
Hour 2
Things are not going well for Toyota. The U.S. Department of Transportation recently announced that it will be looking into “uneven braking” problems in the Prius. The automotive giant has already recalled close over eight million cars because of sticking gas pedals. We’ll discuss what all this means for Toyota with automotive industry analyst Maryann Keller. Then we’ll take a look at some of the hot news cars headlining at the Philadelphia International Auto Show with automotive journalist Marty Padgett, including a review of the Chevy Volt and the Aston-Martin Rapide.
