This is a Los Angeles Times four page expose on Toyota's safety problems over the last 10 years and their cover ups.

Toyotas are for people stuck in 1989 and/or worship the Japanese.

Toyota's overall quality is still ok but falling.

They just announced they will reduce their budget for parts purchase 30%. This is the across the board cuts Detroit did in the 70’s and 80’s and led to a nosedive in quality.

But I guess some people believe the Japanese are so damn brilliant they have to make the best product regardless of mounting evidence to the contrary.

Hey, I liked 1989. I made the Toyota comment just from experience. Camrys have treated my family well. Lexus is a fine auto too. I’d never buy a Hyundai like others suggest. Same with Kia and Mitsubishi. Those are crap cars.
