Toyota to Fight Back
FT reports:
Toyota will on Monday hit back at one of its most high-profile critics by staging a technical demonstration intended to rebut his claim to have uncovered a potentially dangerous flaw in the carmaker's onboard electronic control systems.....
Prof Gilbert told a congressional committee last month that he had found a possible flaw in the electronic controls of a Toyota Avalon, saying he had been able to cause unintended acceleration without triggering diagnostic trouble codes in the onboard computer. Prof Gilbert has acknowledged that his work was sponsored by five law firms involved in lawsuits against Toyota

Toyota and others knew they were having issues and attempted to hide it. All Car Companies should have came forward with a full disclosures of what car were dangerous. Instead of waiting for a huge media blitz and tons of public pressure. I never seen so many car companies GM - NISSAN - TOYOTA - HYUNDAI having recalls all at the same time. I had no idea my car was affected until I looked on http://www.carpedalrecall.com and found I had a bad Anti Lock control unit on my 2008 Pontiac G8 , my co workers Ford Truck had a recall also. So be careful
