part of problem was that TOYOTA couldn't keep up with demand during the spike in gas prices around the globe few years back . Was nearly impossible to get a COROLLA , YARIS , and especially the PRIUS . Thus more errors are likely . Even if made in JAPAN ( YARIS , PRIUS ) .

The way that stupid woman ignorantly attacked Toyota made me want to punch her in the face.

How do you get off on bashing one of the world's best car manufacturers and asking retardedly impossible questions like, "Will the Camry hybrid ever have a recall?"

Not to mention the poor guy came all the way from Japan, when it wasn't necessary, and all he's getting are pointed questions and finger pointing accusations when the company is clearly spending boat loads of cash to fix this problem. And like Toyota is the only company to have ever made a car that killed someone by accident.

This is so unbelievably biased I think I'm going to be sick. I'm embarrassed to be American right now.

yaris2010RS · 02-25-2010, 09:28 AM

okay, so its officially gone off the wall. today on the radio i heard about the head toyota guy saying once again he was very sorry for all this and he knows toyota needs to work to regain the peoples trust. someone (a big shot government person) said its too late to say sorry and he is gonna have to do alot more then say sorry. they also said toyota hasn't been taking this seriously nor doing the right actions

WTF!! toyota is everything to the best they can. toyota went to the safety board with this problem and they were told it wasn't a neccessary recall but toyota did it anyways.

after this was said on the radio, followed a new recall by dodge for a minivan. the issue in about 400,000 vans is the AIR BAG SENSOR GETS MESSED UP AND WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. a van trusted by 400,000 families to carry 7 ppl to soccer and it doesn't have air bags? this is a bigger deal! this is the part i like, dodge will not be fixing the part till end of june...... FAIL!!

If they stop selling Toyota cars in America, I'm moving to Japan somehow...or any overseas country not as arrogant as the USA~

chew246214 · 02-25-2010, 05:06 PM

Funny part is that recall on the caravan has been going on for over 3 years.... they first tried changing the wiring, and if corrosion was present the sensors were changed also.... I sold a ton of them...... only takes 15 minutes to do.....

Hershey · 02-26-2010, 09:26 PM

go here if curious , www.cbsatlanta.com/news/22674572/detail.html . Wonder if the gas pedal had already been replaced under the recall . If so , could mean electronics .

slothman86 · 02-26-2010, 09:49 PM

She had her foot on the brake the whole time...or the accelerator...

Yeah, it was definitely one of those two damn pedals.

roxy1 · 02-27-2010, 11:58 AM

an accelerator sticking is one thing, but acceleration without pushing the pedal at all? i think some drivers that made colossal mistakes (ie pushing the accelerator thinking its the brake) have a very convenient excuse now.

Most new cars have 'black boxes' that show whether or not you were pressing on the gas or brake pedal at the time the air bags deployed. Shouldn't they be checking these to make sure?

i agree, but imo if the computer thinks its at wide open throttle it will save in the black box that the accelerator was depressed......

markitect · 03-02-2010, 11:07 AM

I think the real question is was the brake pressed as well

JBougie · 03-03-2010, 01:14 AM

No matter what our shit government does to try and trash them; I will always love my Toyota.

I really wish I could take advantage of that 60 month 0% interest and get a new car right now, because I would do it in a heart beat - their little recall doesn't bother me. It's a machine, they can't be perfect all the time. I'd take a pedal-sticking Toyota over a POS domestic 50k-and-their-dead any day.

I wish I could apologize to Akio Toyoda for the absolute sorry excuse for hospitality we showed him while he was here. If I was him I would want to pull my entire business from this country; thankfully I think he knows that there are plenty of us who absolutely love ours cars too much to care what the media hype is saying :)

why? · 03-03-2010, 09:16 PM

oh no, 56 people died of stupidity, good. Let darwin's ideas run its course.

do not fear, japan has the last laugh, since China just sold some of our debt, Japan now is the #1 holder. You bet the Japanese government will be holding that over the fools heads quite quickly.

RedRide · 03-03-2010, 02:18 AM

This is not a media or US government driven issue!
Over 56 people were killed due to a design defefect in gas pedals.

Toyota knew about this some time ago and slowly started to phase them out.
Even though people were getting killed, Toyota was still draging ther feet over this due to economic reasons.

Howver, the crap hit the fan and they are now saying they are sorry which is so much PR and damage control resulting from corporate greed.

Yeah, I have two Toyotas and like boh of them but I have lost respect for Toyota as a corporation.
