that girls kinda go crazy over. Don't ask me why, but they seem to like them.

Oh, and I drive a toyota. you know, the car company that actually thinks quality is a good thing. The one that actually solves the issues their cars have, not let them linger for a decade.

Based on non-existent problems. Car companies, especially the biggest ones, are forced to be proactive with safety related things even when a problem isn't proven. In Toyota's unintended acceleration cases, a mechanical problem still hasn't been proven or identified. Anyone who knows anything about cars, knows it was driver error. "Black boxes" have already indicated that the gas pedals were mashed before accidents, rather than the brake that the drivers claimed. And Toyota could not point the finger at customers for obvious reasons. The recalls and meaningless repairs were an unfortunate requirement to maintain public relations.
