There is no conflict of interest.

You don't see the conflict when a government regulatory agency that
owns two competitors indicates that it's unsafe to use the product
of a third party thet it competes with?

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA.
That is the very definition of conflict of interest. Legislators
have been removed from office for less.

Yes...I see the "possible" conflict of interest...and I understand
your argument.

But John...it is TRUE.

What's true?



If this defect were applied to aircraft, entire fleets would be
grounded.

They didn't ground the Airbus A340 (?) fleet a year or so ago when it turned
out that sensor errors, compounded by a software defect, had been crashing
A340's for a decade.

The DC-10 fleet wasn't grounded, even when engines started falling off or
when it became known that the elevator jack screw mechanisms were defective
and the fleet started flying into the ground FCS.
You are entitled to your own opinions but not your own facts.



This recall is not like others.

Not like the Corvair, Pinto, or Vega recall's?
LOL



This is a defect that can and has killed.

Like Fords "Exploder's".
You know, when the entire fleet of those vehicles over ten years had been
built without enough tire on them.



And you have millions of affected cars on the road each day...with the
defect waiting to happen again.

The defect is easily overcome when it manifests. You shut the damned car
off, and no - they steering doesn't lock.
You can't turn the key that far without shifting the transmission.
That cop in San Diego died because he was a retard. He got his Darwin.
He killed himself and his friends needlessly.



If your family was killed tomorrow by an affected car, would you still
have the same opinion?

I spent last week moving stuff hundreds of miles in an affected Sequoia and
Tundra.



Since you sound like a Toyota stockholder, I would be sharpening up
your pitchfork for their management.

Toyota realized about a year and a half ago that they needed to step up
their quality management.
They'd reduced vendor survey's and a bunch of other stuff to lower costs.
They have been restoring the quality management structure that their
reputation was built on and had replaced the top dog with the guy that is
now, and has been, doing that.

Toyota shareholders have already taken that haircut.

Sounds like a lot of excuses John.

Tell us...if your family was killed by this defect, would your opinon
be the same?

Your concern is over the current economic haircut you are getting for
betting against GM and Chrysler.

You sound more concerned about making money than for the safety of my
family on the road with the Toyota death traps.
