Thanks for all the great stories Red, I don't know how I always seem to miss them.
And again I repeat America's favorite quote "foreign is better and more reliable"
Toyota also ignores the persistant break failure problem that cuased a friend of mine's kid to crash into a 18 wheeler after he just bought a brand new Tundra.

Well, in all fairness, look at the source >>

And American Morning did run a little piece on it a couple of days ago.

Toyota will notify owners starting in mid-February and repair the defective front suspension lower ball joints free of charge.
Ohh awful big of them , but I'd hate to think of all the bucks and logistics involved to fix the problem, That's Gotta Hurt.

The question is what would Ford have done for its customers had the same problem happened to them? Issued an immediate recall...a TSB...looked the other way until someone got injured?
No, seriously.
No, seriously.

I saw on the tonight show last night that Jay Leno mentioned this lol. So atleast people are hearing about it, even if the sources are a bit, odd. We just need this to appear on the front page of the usa today and msnbc.
