Toyota has suffered a serial of blows after the recall of millions of cars and trucks. Just on April 5, the US federal regulators wanted to impose a civil fine of $16.4 million against Toyota Motor Corp. for failing to notify the auto safety agency of the dangerous "sticky pedal" defect for at least four months.

Approximately 2.3 million vehicles in the US were recalled in January for the sticky pedal defect. Toyota separately has recalled 5.4 million vehicles over pedal entrapment issues, though some vehicles are impacted by both.
