MaskedMan explained the gas pedal thing pretty well. Its only really occurred in less than 10 vehicles with well over 100k miles, every other claim has been driver error or improperly installed or excessive floor mats.
The brake system recall on the Corolla was only 09 and very early production 10 models. Its only for a brake system vacuum port on the throttle body that gets moisture in it and can freeze causing brake problems, this only occurs in temperatures below -32 deg. I think you'll be fine.
As far as the steering issues, they are under investigation still. Supposedly it causes the car to be hard to keep straight when on the highway, like it wanders too much. Which IMO is pretty much a characteristic of the new electronically controlled steering in all the new vehicle.
But I work for Toyota so I think everybody is crazy because they are all driving me crazy...

They only make a big deal out of it because Toyota is Dominating the US market in automobiles (At least I am seeing it in my city) and are sore losers about it. That's just like how the world works though, sometimes 1 person can do all good, the moment they fail with a common issue (because they were not known to do that), and all of a sudden that 1 bad thing outweighs all the good they have done. Look at Tigerwoods, once he made a mistake and the whole world points a finger at him, even by those who have done worst and continue to do so. Because Toyota is best known for reliability, this issue got out of hand... Their 1 mistake.
