And that was.....over 30 years ago. Meanwhile, Toyota recalled 10 million vehicles in 2010 because they couldn't put a mat anchor in the vehicle to secure the floor mats and they can't design an accelerator that doesn't stick.


That has been proven to be utter BS. Just like it was for Audi back in the 1980's.
EVERY single case has been the result of inept drivers pressing the accelerator rather than the brake.
Everyone who's ever driven a car knows that the brakes will win in a engine/tranny vs. brakes contest.
So keep spewing your jingoistic BS without knowing the facts.


Typical Toyota Troll trying to recast history.

Here are the FACTS - Along with a LINK so you can READ the TRUTH about ASIAN JUNK!

2009 saw the largest-ever recall in the history of Toyota with 4.3 million vehicles recalled due to floor mats catching the accelerator pedal. Now, Toyota has launched a separate recall for 2.3 million vehicles concerning gas pedals that can malfunction and stick � without a floor mat in the vehicle.

Toyota says that the latest recall is totally separate from the previous recall, and addresses the possibility of some accelerator pedals becoming stuck in a position that applies throttle, without a floor mat being present.

�Our investigation indicates that there is a possibility that certain accelerator pedal mechanisms may, in rare instances, mechanically stick in a partially depressed position or return slowly to the idle position,� said Irv Miller, Toyota USA group vice president.
