Toyota has announced a recall today for their some Prisus and all HS 250h.  Some drivers have reported that the ABS system on their car feels “inconsistent” when traveling over bumpy or slick roads.

Prisus that have been sold between May 2009 and January 2010 could be effected.  All 250h are effected.

Toyota is saying that the fix is a simple software update to the car’s ABS computer.  That’s good news!  At least it’s a pretty quick an painless fix.

In the meantime, Toyota is recommending that drivers on slick roads apply even, steady pressure even if the pedal if your ABS system engages.  That really is the same advice that all manufactures give relating to ABS systems, so there isn’t anything really new there.

Poor Toyota has has it’s share of problems over the last few months.
