According to CNN, Toyota announced the recall of 369,000 vehicles this month to fix problems associated with its Highlander Hybrid SUVs and Lexus IS 350 models.
The recalls affect about 235,000 vehicles in the U.S., 74,000 in Japan and 37,500 in Europe. A representative for Toyota said that there were no reported accidents or injuries relating to the recall.
The Highlander Hybrid recall is for the model years between 2006 and 2010, while the Lexus vehicles were from 2006 to 2008. According to CNN, in the SUVs, the transistors in the hybrid system can overheat, causing the vehicle to trigger a warning that stops it from operating.
The company said it would notify customers with affected vehicles via mail. Last year, Toyota recalled 7.43 million cars due to a window problem that posed fire risks and in April, the company recalled 1.7 million cars for airbag defects.
Vehicle recalls signal the potential for serious problems that can lead to car accidents and injuries. We have represented many consumers in class action lawsuits against automakers who have put out defective products, seeking costs for repairs and damages associated with any accidents or injuries.

KGG Law, and Barry Kantrowitz in particular, set the bar high for what a thorough, practical, strategic, compassionate and smart lawyer can be. Everything about Barry's advice and representation was exemplary and the stress mitigation that resulted was invaluable. On top of that, the ultimate result Barry achieved was beyond what was reasonable to expect and we are forever grateful. Often, people say that you hire a lawyer to prevent a problem. Sometimes, unfortunately, you need an attorney to solve a problem and I could not recommend Barry and his firm any more highly in that regard.Posted on Google

Kate Carballo is a dedicated, passionate, and creative attorney whom I had the pleasure to lecture with at a state trial lawyer's conference. Kate's lecture demonstrated how she uses her innovative and "out-of-the-box thinking" to achieve outstanding results for her injured clients. That Kate is certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a civil trial attorney is a testament to her skills, experience and commitment to excellence.Posted on Google

Was referred to KGG law by a friend and could not have asked for better legal representation. They walked me through every step of the process after my accident and began every call with “ how are you feeling” which was just one example of how much they care about their clients. They handled my case very efficiently, professionally and courteously. My attorney Kate Carballo was a rock star! So clearly experienced, she consistently made me feel at ease with the process. Highly recommendPosted on Google

We had a great experience with the team at KGG Law. While it was a traumatic time for our family, they made it very easy for us and explained all of our options. They even performed due diligence to make sure that after our settlement, there would be no further issues which I think is even more important than the settlement itself. Thank you!
