I truly believe my Yaris has some issues that need to be resolved. As some may know, I have always felt my yaris had some type of flaw. My Brakes are not stopping my vehicle well enough, and now today I was driving down the road, had a cd in, and it just randomly chaged from the CD to AM radio. It is just all very weird.

Luckily my car is not affected as it was manufactured after September 09 (there's a look up system on toyota.co.uk). The thing is the media present it as a disaster etc, whereas as mentioned above it didn't even make it to the top-10 of recalls. As for the drop in trade-in prices it's expectable but hey thanks I'll keep my car...

Honda added another recall today. Looks like they were getting jealous of all attention Toyota was getting and they are trying to steal some of the pub.

at this point i think toyota is making every recall it can think of, figuring it can't hurt their rep any more.

OK, I think it's safe to start calling bullshit on some of these complaints... like people are sitting around thinking of things that could be wrong with Toyotas, and because of the situation everyone takes it seriously. The government and the media are doing nothing to alleviate concerns, and may actually be contributing to them.

look on the bright side at least Toyota does the recall when the cars are new ..
Unlike Honda's latest recall on 450,000 cars dateing back to 2001 for fualty airbags |

I have owned a few throw away cars in my life. A 72 Vega good for 80,000 miles and a 78 Ford Courier also good for 80,000 miles. To my knowledge no recalls on them, however, these vehicles should have never been built.

any first gen air bag could have done that to a small enough person in the wrong circumstance.
