By Tuesday, Toyota will have 437,000 of the 2010 Prius Hybrid models due to a glitch in the breaking system.Toyota is also recalling 270 of the plug-in Priuses, 28,000 Lexus's, and 11,000 Sai hybrids. It was said that on slippery or frozen roads the breaks lock up for a split second. Toyota is guessing it will take about 40 minutes to fix each car and have alot of confidence that after this recall there should be no more break problems. "When we discover a defect, make defects, or receive advice from customers, we work hard to fix them and improve,We do not allow cover-ups.” says President, Mr.Toyoda.

Good summary. I think all these recalls are really going to hurt Toyota, even more than they think!

• What will they be doing with the models? Recalling them? Your first sentence doesn't say.
• You don't need an apostrophe on the Lexus. It should be plural not possessive. Lexuses.
• Toyota... have?
• There should be a period after improve.
• There should be a comma after ups.
• You're missing a space between Mr. and Toyoda.
• Don't use courtesy titles like Mr. or Mrs. in news stories. Use full and complete names.
