COWLING AND TOYOTA

[Rudolph Hucker 0]

What''s the difference between Cowling and a Toyota?

Both are notoriously unreliable and prone to running on when you put your foot down but at least with a Toyota there is some effective recall.

The recall from Toyota is not reliable. They tried to bury these problems using bribes, corruption, destruction and falsifying of records, and a general hush-hush atmosphere. People have died because of this.

Therefore, upon more than a surface glance, your attempt at humor falls flat.

124 reports from drivers about the braking issue, including four of

crashes.This record, taken from BBC News, suggests that Toyota have bent over backwards to be open with customers.

September 2007, US: 55,000 Camry and Lexus cars in floormat recall

October 2009, US: 3.8m Toyota and Lexus vehicles recalled due to floormat problem

November 2009, US: floormat recall increased to 4.2m vehicles

January 2010, US: 2.3m Toyota vehicles recalled due

to accelerator pedal problems (Of those, 2.1m already involved in

floormat recall)

January 2010, US: 1.1m Toyotas in floormat recall

February 2010, Europe: 1.8m Toyota''s in pedal recall

February 2010, Japan, US: 200 reports of brake faults in new Prius. None recalledFar be it for me to suggest that your argument is not based on fact, but concern for American car makers, who until these problems arose were being beaten hollow by Toyota and Honda in their own back-yard.

Let''s also clear something up about the problems with Toyota''s vehicles.
Toyota may be getting the headlines but the problem part was supplied by CTS a Canadian supplier to the auto industry.

WHat this has to do with football I don''t know.

I''m just telling you what I know about the situation. Toyota cxertainly has NOT been forthcoming about this which is why they are under so much scrutiny now, and backpedaling as fast as possible to save face.

Other auto makers get roasted by the press when recalls of this sort happen. NBC actually faked things to make a Ford catch fire for a report they did on a problem with one of the Ford pick-ups. They presented it as real and they themselves got roasted for trying to make the problem look worse that it was.

In general, the American media seems to take great pleasure when there are problems for US manufacturers, and now they seem to be downplaying what is happening with Toyota. It makes no sense, since all auto manufacturers are evil Earth destroying money-grubbing corporations. it is so stupid since so many of the "foreign" cars are made here and "domestic" cars made elsewhere.
