Toyota Recall Du Jour

Sorry if this is a repost: http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/afp/09082..._recall_toyota

Now there are problems with the side windows?? Apparently it only affects models sold in China, but it is almost 700,000 cars

There's a reason everyone in China wants to drive Chevys or Buicks...

...And the thought of a recall in China just makes me keel over. I'd imagine that those PW window things are literally grenading and taking some chinese with them in order for a recall to be put in place by the 'Automotive Allah'.

The company controlled press just doesn't want you to know the details. Just like little timmy's lower torso incident with mommy's Sequoia last fall.

...that never happened.

I wish that more consumers would acknowledge how dangerous some of these imports really are. If it were a Jeep that turned over, Consumer Reports would write an in-depth article on how the American SUV is a plague on those who would buy it, despite the annual sales to thousands of happy customers.

Friggin Toyota; Powerbrokers with pawn holdings in every market. Whole mess reeks of Michael Douglas in Wall Street; just like 1980s GM.
