Toyota have been experiencing more problems in the past few months than they ever have and the last week has been no different.The GX 460 has been all over the news after Consumer Reports conducted a rollover test on the vehicle and found it to be unsafe.

Toyota responded quickly, stopping sales of the model and beginning to conduct similar tests of their own in order to find a remedy.

Today, they have issued a press release and video that demonstrates the fix. The issue fix is a simple one, a recalibration of the Vehicle Stability Control system (VSC).

A large part of the rollover issue in the GX 460 has been attributed to the fact that heavy components, such as the fuel tank, are located on the left side, and left side is made even heavier because of the presence of the driver. The fix is demonstrated in this video below.
