Every manufacturer has had problems, they've all had recalls. But what really pisses me off is how Toyota bought off the NHTSA by hiring one of the investigators to be the Toyota lobbyist TO the NHTSA, how they boasted in an internal memo about about saving $100+ million by dragging their feet on recalls including claiming it was just the floor mats, how Rockefeller, the lead congressional "investigator" on Toyota had also bragged how closely he worked with Toyota to get them to build a manufacturing plant in his state, and on and on...

IMO, this isn't about idiot drivers or how someone can't find nuetral, it's about collusion, greed, and Toyota's corporate ethics (or lack there of).
