Toyota
I am amused and disturbed that currently an executive of the largest shareholder of one of Toyota's largest competitors is ordering investigations into Toyota's actions and telling people to stop driving their cars. (although he did back off that last one) Isn't Socialism wonderful.
There have been 19 deaths in ten years from the accelerator sticking thing. They are recalling more than 8 million cars. That works out to about a .00023 percent chance of being killed in your Toyota.
I suppose drumming up a hysteria and forcing Toyota to hire lots of new mechanics and order more than 8 million parts from an American supplier is one way to create jobs. Not perhaps an ethical one but it works.
Just to be clear, if I had the money, I would buy a Toyota tomorrow. Without hesitation. The same can not be said about a Chevy.
