Take a look at the TSB lists for any car company. Toyota isn't the only company that has to do a little re-engineering after releasing a car or that tries to cut corners in an attempt to maximize profits.

"Honorable"? They are in business to make money, just like every other company. Do they build a good car? In my opinion, yes they do.

STOVE try reading The TSB EG048-07 in question....Does the fact that cutting corners and re-engineering justify not offering to update a known defect...As long as consumers accept this type of "customer care" by Toyota, more hidden defects like the ones killing people nation wide will be concealed as "out of Warranty"..... Unless you live in total isolation you must surely see the millions of dollars in advertising propaganda Toyota is spending to restore their percieved integrity. My point is that the defect is real, very cheap to reslove, very expensive if allowed to occur. If the defect is real enough to change production it is real enough to offer an update of cars in the field....a Question of warranty ?.... no...a question of integrity.
