Toyota stop-sale order issued

Our region just received the stop sale order from Toyota on 8 of our models. No idea how long this will be implemented! To say the least, we're at a loss right now as what to do to compensate for this. Any other Toyota ISMs here have any further insights or suggestions?

Call McNeil Pharmaceutical and ask them how they overcame the Tylenol debacle?:dunno:
 
As most of you know, the recall is now GLOBAL .. Yikes ! This will take more than a couple weeks to fix even with the manufacturer of the pedal "ramping" up production of a new pedal.

I work for a Honda dealer, so I am not personally effected. We were busy the 1st week, than business tapered off. Over the last 5 days, we've been very busy and making up for lost ground. Curious to see how Toyota whoa's effect Honda business.
 

✨ AI Highlights

Toyota dealers discuss how to handle a stop-sale order affecting eight vehicle models, including confusion about website inventory management, recall procedures, and parts availability timelines. The consensus is that vehicles can be sold once the recall is performed, parts should be available within 10-14 days, and dealers should not remove listings from websites since the issue will be resolved quickly. A key insight is that this disruption can be leveraged as a sales opportunity if handled correctly, while dealers must be cautious about test driving vehicles before recalls are completed to avoid liability issues.
