Toyota roast courtesy us congress

[HURRICANEBOB]

While I have always been a buy American kinda guy, I to think this is being handled somewhat badly by the Government.

HOWEVER, if it is proven they actually did know of this mistake and turned a blind eye to it, I SAY LAY THE **** HAMMER ON THEM. I would also say that if it was GM, Ford, Chrysler, or whomever else put the public in that kinda jeapordy. Nobody wants to see jobs lost but they need to get to the bottom of this. And from everything people are reporting about personal experiences with these cars it DOES not sound like a gas pedal issue. If you are standing on the brake and taking the car out of gear and something is overriding your actions and causing the drivetrain and engine to keep going, that is an electronic, (computer) malfunction.

I guess what I'm saying is I agree with what you boys are saying but before you all start circling the wagon defending Toyota with this big lovefest, let's get all the facts first. If they knew it and ignored it, HAMMER'EM!

I'm sure the plant workers and even some upper management knew nothing of this, but if somebody up the food chain did and chose to ignore, guys that would be really, really bad, that's all I'm saying. They will sort it all out, it's gonna be interesting to see how it plays also.

Just another opinion to think about.

AGREED. Whole thing ought be decided with facts. Just worries me when I see a gubment agency like NTHSA that has data that it does not make available completely.....either part of problem or solution.

WOW! Detroit Michigan Toyota Electronics Component production facility raided today by the feds. That sounds like somebody told a no-no and the feds had enough evidence of a tongue in cheek comment that it pursuaded a judge to say okay to the search.........SHADES OF TOYOTA WATERGATE.

What happens if the feds found nothing? Ya think that will be just as big a headline as the raid was?

HEY, SOMEBODY CALL THE WRTIERS OF THAT TV SERIES "24", I THINK WE GOT NEW MATERIAL FOR THEM!
