NHTSA: Important Recall Info That MAY Affect Your Vehicle




U.S. Department of Transportation National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
Your vehicle MAY be involved in a safety recall and MAY create a safety risk for you or your passengers. If left unrepaired, a potential safety defect could lead to injury or even death. Safety defects must be repaired by a dealer at no cost to you.
Why am I getting this email?
You are receiving this message because you requested to be notified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) if there is a safety recall that may affect your vehicle.
The following may apply to one or more of your vehicles if your vehicle is listed below. Click on the NHTSA Campaign ID number below to read more about the safety issue and the reason for the recall.

What is a recall?
When a manufacturer or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) determines that a car or item of motor vehicle equipment creates an unreasonable risk to safety or fails to meet minimum safety standards, the manufacturer is required to fix that car or equipment at no cost to the consumer. That can be done by repairing it, replacing it, offering a refund (for equipment) or, in rare cases, repurchasing the car.
What should I do if my vehicle is included in this recall?
If your vehicle is included in this recall, it is very important that you get it fixed as soon as possible given the potential danger to you and your passengers if it is not addressed. You should receive a separate letter in the mail from the vehicle manufacturer, notifying you of the recall and explaining when the remedy will be available, whom to contact to repair your vehicle or equipment, and to remind you that the repair will be done at no charge to you. If you believe your vehicle is included in the recall, but you do not receive a letter in the mail from the vehicle manufacturer, please call NHTSA's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236, or contact your vehicle manufacturer or dealership.
Thank you for your attention to this important safety matter and for your commitment to helping save lives on America's roadways.

Toyota/Lexus/Land Cruiser Protect Middle Eastern Owners, but Not Americans?



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






Playbook: Chapter 4: Dehumanize Fatalities: 'Souvenirs from NHTSA.'
 
 

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.
