At least 100 owners of Toyota Motor Corp.'s RAV4 sport utility vehicles in China are preparing to file a lawsuit against the automaker, which has been rocked by massive global recalls, their lawyers said Friday.
A Toyota RAV4 parked at a service station in Beijing.In China, Toyota has recalled just one model, the RAV4, to fix its faulty accelerator system.
A spokesperson at a Toyota unit here declined to comment on the potential lawsuit, which could be filed as early as this month.
But according to a Toyota source, "We have undertaken the recall based on Chinese law, so it would not be feasible to pay additional damages."
