So glad you brought up millions of people who might be affected. So how do you feel about GM Side Saddle gas tank issue? Over 10 million were installed, over 1800 people were killed in fiery crashes, and GM payed millions of dollars to shut them up, besides Mosley vs GM that is.
Transportation secretary pretty much said ( clicky for a long pdf) that GM is at fault for it, because of the design, and it should have never existed in the first place. In addition to the fact that NHTSA has urged GM to issue a voluntary recall ( clicky), what did GM do? Pretty sure it was NOTHING 
Like I said before, at least Toyota is doing something.
Cheers,
P.S. In before you try to put a positive spin on all those deaths.
Oh, and as always GM is number 1!! |
Toyota is doing something? They pinned it on "floor mats" when its obviously not floor mats. They are just throwing out ******** recalls because they are scrambling to regain thier image.
Are you watching either of the football games? Toyota has bought more air time talking about its quality and other ********.
GM has had its problems, and it made ****** cars and ****** calls. That still doesnt mean that what Toyota is doing is better? How about the sludge engines? No recall notice, just millions of dollars of covering it up and telling people to shut it. How about teh Sienna doors delaminating? How about the new Tundra's laundry list of problems, NONE of which were recalled, just "enhanced warrantied" to death.
Toyota is covering it up as of thier mistakes as possible. They fired the CEO and put in a family member because of all the major short falls and damage done to the image.
And as for Mr.Green Nader's book that came out after that generation of Corvairs were being replaced with redesigned and better driving 2nd generations. But GM's pursuit of Nader made GM look evil. And that damaged the image of the Corvair, not to mention opeing the door for the Mustang to take over in 64.
I have never said that GM is flawless, I never said that GM is without blame. GM has done a lot of bad things and has ****ed people over for years.
In the end, the past is the past. Toyota is not covering ****, just putting the blame on the drivers and not on faulty cars.
