An additional, if somewhat smaller recall just announced:

Toyota recalls 8,000 Tacoma trucks

Problem with drive shaft could cause vehicle to lose control.

A similar problem in earlier model Tacomas was reported some time back, but the article does not indicate whether this recall is related. Recollection is that the earlier reports produced "studies," and "dealer inspections" were offered, but those earlier defect problems did not result in a recall.
