**Toyota’s US sales bounced back in March as substantial discounts helped to win back customers who had been shaken by the firm’s mass safety recalls.**The Japanese carmaker saw its US sales jump 35% last month compared with a year earlier. The big rise came after its sales slumped by 8.7% in February.
However, US firms Ford and General Motors saw their sales grow even more strongly last month.
Both reported a 43% rise after they also introduced discount schemes.
Chrysler, the third of the “Big Three” US car firms, saw its sales fall 8.3% last month as consumers continued to be unimpressed by its range of models.
Toyota has had to recall more than eight million cars worldwide due to problems with accelerator pedals and brakes.This article is from the BBC News website. © British Broadcasting Corporation, The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
