I've scanned the list of comments and noticed not one disparaging word about Toyota, which announced a recall on the very same day. I believe with more vehicles affected. HMMMMMMM!

Without knowing all the facts, I would venture that the magnitude of the problem with the Toyota would pale against the recalls of the Big 3 --- I personally lived through one, the very inadequate brake designs (to save money) of the Chevy Tahoe and related designs. That one cost lives and many accidents.

I will continue to research the issue, but you can take too much cost out of a vehicle and make it very unsafe and unreliable. Also see the Consumers' Reports on thier annual survey of technical RELIABILITY of autos, worldwide, and see who is at the top and who is not -- it will probably surprise you greatly.

Can't put down Toyota. "Oh what a feeling Toyota".

I was born and raised a Ford man and I'll die a Ford man. I ain't got no ambition.

I had a nearly new Toyota Sienna van, very nice, all the extras, was recalled because of faulty seat belts for rear passengers. Decided to trade for a 4x4 F150 king ranch! Very happy! : )

Roger that ~ Bullseye!

Toyota Motor Corp., meanwhile, recalled 978,000 SUVs and pickup trucks over complaints that a rod linking the steering wheel and the wheels could fracture when the steering wheel is turned while the vehicle is stopped.

The affected vehicles include the 1990-1995 4Runner SUV, 1989-1995 truck 4WD and 1993-1998 T-100 pickup.
