(TM). The recall impacts less than 1% of the Zipcar fleet.
Further Zipcar said that it will continue to monitor the recall closely and follow Toyota's recommendations and resolution.
Zipcar previously announced the removal of the 2009 and 2010 Toyota Matrix models due to a safety recall. Repairs on affected 2009 and 2010 Toyota Matrix models continues to progress, with the first repaired units already back in service. The remainder of the recalled Toyota Matrix units are expected to be returned to Zipcar service by mid-February.
