Toyota executives' testimony comes off as clueless
"Akio Toyoda's story doesn't add up. The president of Toyota Motor Corp., the centrally controlled behemoth founded 73 years ago by his grandfather, told a congressional committee Wednesday that he didn't know about mounting sudden- acceleration complaints with Toyota vehicles until late last year. He also did... 2 Mar 2010 19:18

Lawmaker: Toyota withheld crash lawsuit evidence
Rep. Ed Towns, D-N.Y., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said the documents subpoenaed from ex-Toyota lawyer Dimitrios Biller "indicate Toyota deliberately withheld records that it was legally required to produce." Biller also accuses Toyota of trying to hide "evidence of safety de... 28 Feb 2010 17:53

Toyota Throttle Electronics Easily Confused
The floor mats and sticking pedal accounts for only 30% of the problems. The true cause of sudden acceleration is still not known so no real solution is possible. IMO it's the electronics. "In earlier testimony, David Gilbert, a Southern Illinois University professor, tells the panel he was able to produce in a l... 1 Mar 2010 12:36

Watch the Toyota Hearing Tomorrow
So the recent recalls still don't fix 70% of problems out there! The electronic throttle's engineering seems far inferior to those of GM and Ford. Looking forward to see what Akio Toyoda says.

Witness: 'Shame on you, Toyota, for being so greedy'
Some excellent testimony videos. Looks like Toyota USA is only a sales front, no engineering know-how, manufacturing or safety recall decisions (all done in Japan). And that Lentz guy doesn't seem to know anything but sales. What a shame. Videos on: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/35538073#35549366 Under... 25 Feb 2010 20:34

And now the Bull starts
A woman testified before Congress that when her Toyota began accelerating uncontrollably she "put the car in neutral and it had no effect, I stepped on the brakes and it had no effect, I applied the emergency brake and it had no effect, I even tried to put the car into reverse and I couldn't." Huh? Putting the ca... 28 Feb 2010 13:24
