There is a huge pile on Toyota mentality for what looks like unrelated problems:

#1 - ill fitting floor mats.

#2 - sticky brake petal assembly. (What they are fixing at dealers right now..)

#3 - "faulty" anti-lock brakes. (Most likely an unusual brake feel in lose or otherwise slippery roads.)

#4 - issues with with regenerative braking transitioning into friction braking on the hybrid vehicles.

#5 - drive by wire software issues.

Considering the overall quality and safely of all the Toyota's in the road, over a 200K per vehicle lifespan - they are still safer than most cars on the road..
