The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has also received complaints regarding the brakes on some Toyota vehicles and is launching an investigation into the matter. Toyota owners are becoming increasingly upset and fearful of even driving their cars and many have parked them and turned to rental cars for safety reasons.
