And it's German Engineering didn't you catch the commercials a few years ago with Brooke Shields....sheesh......LOL
Nah, Domestics never get it wrong, they are the safest, bestest cars in the world, dont you know? And if your gas tank does blow up or your tires do explode and get you killed, ITS YOUR FAULT

Oh, and btw, I haven't even mentioned the 1.3 million GM compacts recalled for power steering failures. You're taking a turn at 50mph when suddenly you lose power steering...Yea, you get the idea. And yes, people did crash due to this

People crashed from a Cobalt steering defect.

You're correct. But Toyota is not the first and probably not the last to have built defective cars leading to deaths of human beings. Do you remember the Ford Firestone controversy? 250 people died, as opposed to 50 in the Toyota controversy. Or how about the defective type III GM door latches that led to the deaths of over 100 people? Yes, Toyota messed up this time, but even the almighty GM has. Mistakes happen. Don't be so quick to gloat. You're showcasing people's deaths to say, "Haha, that's why you should buy GM."
I guess Gray had it right when he said "ignorance is bliss."
