Toyota President apologises for global recall

u suck toyota!!!!

I have never been a fan of Toyota. I have driven the Corolla, Camry, Highlander, Matrix but never liked the way they feel. And the "quality" veil has always been shaky. Go Honda!

WHAT IS THE FIX... The Fix puts a Shim behind the pedal..that is all This Shim or Bar, increases the Pedal Return Spring rate..that is ALL it does.. That is ALL the FIX is. The Pedal will retract faster/stronger and quicker, but is it a long term, fix?? Time Will Tell... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDIXQfB5BTE

Toyotas are driven by dumb people who dislike driving and terrible on the road. Toyotas are like McDonalds where they serves bad products and will continue to spoil its customers. Guess the truth hurts, right Toyota?

I wonder if after the press conferance he commited traditional japanese hara-kiri?

No need to say all these words for Toyota, and I laugh when I read some of you saying about the way there cars drive, you want them to build a car that drives like a Ferrari with Merc quality? They have some good cars and I like them such as the land Cruiser and the Avalon

quote: In the past decade or so about 8 million Toyota cars have been recalled. Up to 19 crash deaths in the US were blamed on the accelerator problem over that period. it sounds nothing major...as far as i remember, some other brand (especially US brands) had more recall history & caused more death & accidents than this! simply saying, it's all media circus, & i can smell "some" automakers paid the media under table to create these series of "shows" to torn down the best automaker - Toyota.

they tried to beat Mercedes-Benz in safety, but it all ends by crashes!!! we all know who is original! too bad things were happen in Toyota i hope they will recover soon with more success...

I agree Toyota's are very ugly automobiles & I am glad they are having these issues shows what they really are... Reliability came in the price of peoples lives & who knows how many other deaths have been caused that have gone unreported... I heard a video recording of a cell phone call to 911 online months ago of a man & his family that was taken down of the internet of course, but the peoples gas peddle was stuck in their Toyota & they were heading towards an intersection & Im sure you can figure out what happened!! They mass produce these cars & ended up becoming sloppy.. Everybody talks about American cars & German car reliability issues but as far as I can remember no American or German cars have ever had such issues!!! Toyota is getting what they deserve!

TT

I would accept Toyota's apologies if they promise to make more interesting cars in the future.

I find it funny that idiots have to turn this Toyota problem into an anti-American issue. "Oh my God, Toyota is in huge trouble!" "Yeah, but have you looked at how horrible and satanic US automakers are? They are ten times worse!" The fact of the matter is, after years of having their dealer agents and employers bash all things non-Japanese and insult the intelligence of whoever owns an American car because of their quality, Toyota has shown that is is not the all-powerful, all-perfect, defect-immune super savior that it pretended to be. That fact will not change because, "hey, US automakers have also had recalls!"

No apology necessary... just your resignation.
