Toyota's unprecedented recalls, which began in 2009 with the purpose of reshaping gas pedals and tying down floormats on some 9 million cars, is the lawyer's gift that keeps on giving. And it's still not over.

Today, Toyota said it would add two more models to its first recall, the 2010 Lexus RX 350 and RX 450h, to prevent throttles from sticking under poorly placed floormats. Lexus dealers will begin repairs for about 154,000 cars in August. For more information, look up www.lexus.com/recall​ or call Lexus at 1-800-255-3987.

After the first recalls in 2009 (which continued into 2010), Toyota faced criticism for building cars that could suddenly accelerate out of control. These claims were proven false by government tests and even NASA engineers, although Toyota did have to pay a fine of $16.4 million for reporting the recall too late.

However, that hasn't stopped hundreds of civil suits alleging sudden acceleration and, in some tragic cases, wrongful deaths, that won't begin to go to court until next year, according to Automotive News. Toyota, which has since refused to settle cases, reportedly has so many supporting documents to fight back that they would stack as high as eight Empire State Buildings.
