Toyota is suspending U.S. sales of eight recalled vehicle models to fix accelerator pedals that stick.

As part of the plan, Toyota is halting production at five manufacturing facilities, including a line at the Georgetown, Ky., plant - for the week of Feb. 1 "to assess and coordinate activities."

There are 2.3 million vehicles involved in the recall, which was announced last week.

The Japanese automaker says the sales suspension includes:
•    2009-2010 RAV4
•    2009-2010 Corolla
•    2009-2010 Matrix
•    2005-2010 Avalon
•    2007-2010 Camry
•    2010 Highlander
•    2007-2010 Tundra
•    2008-2010 Sequoia

The recall came months after Toyota recalled 4.2 million vehicles due to gas pedals that could become trapped under floor mats, causing the vehicle to accelerate.
