Toyota Recall: Does This Memory Problem Affect Your Toyota???

Does your Toyota Remember Who It Can Turn To? Toyota Recall Announcement Turns Up Memory Difficulties In Some Models
NEW YORK — Toyota has announced that 2.3 million vehicles have developed memory problems. This recall failure affects some of America’s most popular cars. Toyota recently stated it will stop making those models while it works to remember how to fix the problem.
Wow.
But to make matters even more confusing to your Toyota, most cars having this recall issue were already involved in an earlier, unrelated problem involving gas pedals sticking on floor mats. Your Toyota will become insecure if it thinks it is doing something wrong.
What can you do to help your Toyota?
- First, be calm if your Toyota does not remember who you are. Becoming excited can have negative effects on your Toyota, like forgetting to slow down.
- Express your love and admiration for your Toyota in this difficult time in its young life.
- Mention counselling. Your Toyota may first rebel at the thought of seeing a shrink, so take your time.
- Talk about the old times. Many Toyotas have better recollection of events that happened earlier in their lives. It will build confidence if the two of you can just talk. Drive by the showroom where you first met. It will bring many pleasureable connections.
- Know the risks. Approximately 50% of Toyota owners with recall problems will become clinically depressed, but there are many resources to help both the owner and the Toyota. One place to start is the FAA, or Feline Altzheimer’s Association. They have tips and small food treats.
- Reassure your Toyota. Let it know it is loved and can continue to live at home during treatment.
This memory problem affects specific RAV4, Corolla, Matrix, Avalon, Highlander, Tundra, Sequoia, and some Camrys. None of those snooty Lexus or uppity Scion models are involved. They remember who their owners are!

Good tips! I found that yelling or waving my hands at our Toyota merely made it whimper and leave a puddle of anti-freeze underneath itself. I was riddled with guilt. Now I know why.

Oh thank god Scions are not part of this. I’d hate for a box on wheels made of flimsy metal and plastic to reject me. Something with a decent crash-test rating would be ok, though.

Thanks for the humour.
A very bad blow for Toyota … let’s hope they get themselves out of this mess soon!
If Arnold is thinking of a sequel to Total Recall, this might be an idea.

All I can say to the tongue in cheek above is that I am glad I do not have a car that has dementia. Tammy
