This Toyoda Phony Baloney comes to the US, pretends ignorance of the FACTS, COMPLAINTS, INJURIES and DEATHS caused by TOYOTA'S DEFECTS.......
TOYOTA acknowledges their LIES and DECEPTION......
....pays a $1.2 BILLION FINE and life is DUCKY!
OR IS IT?
The DOJ Settlement .... TOYOTA'S Get Out Of Jail Free Card included an INDEPENDENT MONITOR.....
BELOW, are just a few of TOYOTA'S HORRIFYING TALES!
When it has suited TOYOTA, they have ignored CONSUMERS or settled with Confidentiality Agreement.....filling court dockets, clogging the courts, AG's files, prompting Class Action Lawsuits [i.e. for oil sludge]....
TOYOTA has wasted everyone's time and resources defending TOYOTA PROBLEMS that were KNOWN!
At the bottom on this page is an article indicating TOYOTA RECALLS to protect TOYOTA DRIVERS from KNOWN TOYOTA SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION PROBLEMS!
PLEASE NOTE THOSE TOYOTA RECALLS are all OVERSEAS!
WHEN WILL TOYOTA CORRECT U.S. VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS?
WHEN WILL TOYOTA/NHTSA INC. TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT AMERICANS?
WHERE IS THE INSISTENCE OF THE INDEPENDENT MONITOR THAT U.S. CONSUMERS ARE ENTITLED TO THE SAME PROTECTION?
+ 37,900 complaints ignored by Toyota

You didn't know them.....
...just an American family on
an outing....in a RUNAWAY
TOYOTA.
An August 28th 2010 crash near San Diego of a Lexus ES 350 sedan driven by the off-duty Highway Patrol officer, Mark Saylor resulted in tragedy.
Mr. Saylor was driving his wife, their 13-year-old daughter, and his brother-in-law on a family outing when their car "began to accelerate on its own" and sped out of control despite Saylor’s attempts "to apply the brakes and otherwise do everything possible to stop" the car.
The car reached speeds of up to 120 miles per hour before it struck another vehicle, plowed through a fence, hit a berm and flew through the air, then rolled several times into a field and burst into flames.
The HORRIFYING 911 call and loss of this California family FINALLY forced attention to be drawn to TOYOTA's FAILURES.
After praising itself for $$$$ saved by avoiding RECALLS and ignoring U.S. statutes, the sad loss of the Saylor Family called attention to TOYOTA.
TOYOTA settled cases with GAG ORDERS [confidentiality agreements], silencing public discussion, just as they did in the Saylor settlement....well....except TOYOTA blamed the dealership that removed the silence.
TOYOTA settled the Saylor Family lawsuit for $10 MILLION. You simply don't do that unless you know you're wrong.
You didn't know Noriko Uno. She died trying to stop her RUNAWAY TOYOTA.
This is Noriko Uno's car:
She even pulled the hand brake to stop her car.
This is her family, torn apart by her loss.

Noriko Uno: Last Minutes Filled With Terror As Toyota Camry Sped Out of Control
TOYOTA has settled unknown cases to
silence families, quiet public queries.
Paul Van Alfen's RUNAWAY TOYOTA:
The crash on Nov.
5 killed Paul Van Alfen, 66, and his son's fiancee Charlene Lloyd, 38; Van
Alfen's wife and son were also injured in the wreck. Unlike similar crashes in
Toyotas later blamed on drivers mistaking the accelerator for the brake,
police say Van Alfen's Camry left skid
marks as it exited Interstate 80 near Wendover, Utah.
presumably from holding down the brake pedal. The Utah Highway Patrol said
Monday that based on statements from the passengers who survived, the
Camry's gas
pedal appeared stuck.
Van Alfen's Camry
had been covered by three recalls relating to sudden acceleration
problems, including floor mats and sticking pedals. While
investigators believe Van Alfen had brought his Camry in for the repairs, it's
not clear what fixes had been performed. Toyota has also said it was upgrading
2008 Camrys to include brake override systems designed to cut engine power if
the brake and accelerator are pressed simultaneously; and once again, it's not
clear whether that upgrade was performed.
Over 141,000 Toyota and Lexus cars recalled over dangers of sudden acceleration
Published September 30th, 2014
The recall of as many as 141,007 Toyota and Lexus cars has been initiated in the sultanate to install Smart Stop Technology, a brake override system, in their vehicles to curtail dangers associated with sudden acceleration.
Saud Bahwan (Automotive), the dealership for these brands began the recalls on September 22 under the guidance of the Public Authority for Consumer Protection (PACP).
On September 24, PACP had stated that this campaign is to install an intelligent software update in Lexus LX 570, Land Cruiser 200 and Sequoia models of 2008-11 make, in Camry (2007-11 models) and in Avalon 2005-11 models.
The vehicle models recalled include the Land Cruiser (79,972) followed by Camry (43,207), Lexus LX 570 (9,589), Avalon (7,382) and Sequoia (857).
The company has said that it will be installing the smart braking system in all the cars recalled to have better control of the vehicles. This system overrides the throttle input while braking and makes sure that the car is able to stop.
In a similar campaign in Saudi Arabia, the country’s Ministry of Commerce and Industry announced the recall of over 320,000 Toyota cars, the Saudi Gazette reported earlier this month. That recall was due to the malfunctioning Smart Stop system and to address problems in cruise control.
The models were the same as being recalled in Oman. In another PACP-led campaign, the Al Muhannad al Hashar Company has announced the recall of Aston Martin 2007-13 models in Oman for replacing the fuel pedal due to suspected electrical connection failure. The company said that the cars were recalled for safety reasons and only 33 were affected. Owners have been requested to contact the company for appointments starting October 1.
