It seems <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/toyota/">Toyota's</a> learned a few things from its recent spate of recalls - react quickly, react decisively and repeatedly reassure customers that their safety is a top priority.<br />
<br />
To that end, Toyota has issued a stop sale on the 2010 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/gx">Lexus GX 460</a> after<em> <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/04/13/consumer-reports-puts-lexus-gx-on-do-not-buy-list-due-t/">Consumer Reports</a></em><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/04/13/consumer-reports-puts-lexus-gx-on-do-not-buy-list-due-t/"> deemed the SUV a safety risk</a> earlier today and added the 'ute to its "Do Not Buy" list.<br />
<br />
According to Toyota, the automaker is investigating <em>CR</em>'s claims and using the consumer pub's testing methodology to determine how the SUV's emergency handling can be improved. Furthermore, any 2010 GX 460 owner concerned about their vehicle's safety will be provided a loaner vehicle from <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/lexus/">Lexus</a> until the automaker can find a solution. Full details in the press release after the jump.<br />
