Toyotathon of death !

I own an 07 Tundra. I have been a Chevy person all my life..I had a 96' S-10 that was an EXCELLENT truck for 6 years. Only time will tell how long this one will last, but so far it has been the BEST vehicle I have ever had.. The reason they're blowing this out of proportion is because Toyota is the leading vehicle seller in the US.. There are recalls ALL THE TIME on every type vehicle out there.. And now that Toyota FINALLY had one, the other manufacturers feel like they have to pounce on this opportunity, because Toyota has been killng them on sales.. Just my 2 cents..
well allow me to put a spanner in the works!!!
its Toyota world wide!!
here we have Toyotas made right here in South Africa!!
they have the same issues!! and what makes it worst, is that people have been complaining about the pedals from 2007, Toyota SA, has blamed the mats in the car, and have kept the thing quiet, should see all the people here now coming up and saying that this is an old issue that toyota just refused to acknowledge, its all about the profit, and milking the consumer regardless of the cost human or other wise!!!
Toyota has other problems that they refuse to acknowledge, locally we have a Toyota SUV, with huge handling and safety issues, many accidents, couz of bad suspension design ........................, they now fit an electronic stability control, better however far from right!!
Toyota has built a reputation, and are riding that wave!!
they still make great Motors and Gearboxes!!
dude,it is a little deeper than that.they sold cars three days after the government told them to stop,they knew of this issue for a long time and didn't do a thing about it.this could bankrupt them.i heard the insurance companies are going back and reopening claims from years ago to see if indeed some of these accidents were caused by the pedal.imo the ceo of toyota should step the f down he is a pos for doing what he did.I own an 07 Tundra.

toyota kept prodution going ,and they knew there was problems.
Big manufacturers think in self interest.
If the lawsuits cost do not exceed the cost of recall>they will settle the lawsuites.
Let the defect go.
This problem really is a clusterfukk of defects.
It is a gas by wire ,cpu problem with a linkage problem to boot!
Then they used the floormatt issue to try to cover it up.
Then more people died.
Imagine your wife{not the most savy driver]but still--your prized possesion--your whole world----the only one you will ever truly love.
She didn`t have the reaction skill to stop---and crashed and died.
her death could have been prevented if they thought about people before money----
Is that not an outrage!!!!!!!
For me--toyota is the example of how all automakers greed takes the place of care for human life.
Funny--note--The grand pubah---of toyota---[winkie toyota]
drives an audi

you almost can't buy american anymore.gm builds most of there vehicles from canada,therefore the person that built that car or truck spent that check in a foriegn country.even though gm is still based out of detriot,that to me is a foriegn car.my wife drives a chevrolet equinox suv,it is built in canada and on the transmission there is a tag that says made in japan
same with ford execpt they build out of mexico.i have always been a gm guy but there just as bad.you figure we bailed there asses out and they arent really passing any incentives off to the customers.people should be able to walk out of any gm dealership with one hell of a deal,but there not....ticks me off

If not American then at least North American
well over 8million vehicles to be repaired, wonder who will pay for that!!!
the consumer who buys the next Toyota, the cost of the recall will one way or another be passed on to the consumer!!
me not getting a Toyota for a long time!!
