Toyota Quality

When is the media going to tell us about the serious problems Toyota trucks have been having for a few years now?

Some of the problems are:
frames prematurely rusting
rusting causing the spare tires to fall off
ball joints failing,
front end collapsing
sudden acceleration
brake problems

Toyota even had a truck ‘buy back’ program. Ever hear about that? Why not?

If an American auto company had any one of these problems, it would be all over the news, the owners would be suing, and Consumer Reports would be reporting it too. Speaking of Consumer Reports – they have been pretty quiet about their favorite brand, Toyota.

And Toyota owners are still standing behind their vehicles. One interviewed on tv last night started ranting about how bad the U.S. auto quality is.


Head in the sand.
