Toyota’s troubles don’t appear to be set to end soon, with the Japanese carmaker now recalling half a million Prius and other hybrid cars for potential brake problems. The company has recently recalled more than 8 million cars worldwide for a series of safety defects. The cost is expected to be higher than $2 billion for initial recalls alone.
