Toyota's recent troubles worsened. The company has recalled millions of cars in the United States, Europe and China because of potentially faulty accelerator pedals. This week it launched a pr offensive to assure customers that it could fix the problem by inserting a metal bar into the pedal's mechanism. A snag also emerged with the braking system on its bestselling Prius model. Still, Toyota raised its earnings outlook for the year ending in March despite the cost of the recall, which it estimated at $2 billion.
