Announcing（宣布） the recall（召回）, the president of Toyota, Akio Toyoda, who's the grandson of its founder, said the firm（公司） would do everything in its power to regain（重拾，恢复） the confidence of its customers. He said more than 400,000 Prius cars and other hybrids（混合动力车） were being recalled worldwide. Dozens of Prius drivers in Japan and the United States have complained of a short delay（延迟） in braking（刹车，制动） taking effect during cold weather or on bumpy（颠簸的，崎岖的） roads. Mr. Toyoda apologized and added drivers should be assured（保障） if the brakes were pressed hard the car would stop. The problem, which the company says can be fixed by reprogramming software, affects the newest model of the Prius, which is Japan's best-selling car. It also affects the Lexus（雷克萨斯）, the HS250H and another Toyota model available only in Japan. The company is already in the midst of two much bigger recalls, one to do with a mechanical（机械的） problem in accelerators（加速器）, another the pedals（踏板） potentially（潜在的） getting snagged（水中多障碍的，为障碍所阻的） in floor mats. Concerns over safety have done deep damage to Toyota's reputation（声誉） for quality and reliability（可靠性） which have helped it to become the largest car maker in the world.
