Toyota recall

[tanz45]

choose a different news network. there have not been 18 deaths.



actually the bad part was part produced and supplied from an american company. i guess thats what toyota gets for trying to outsource work to american companies. and a junk product would not become a number one auto manufactorer in the world.

Ummmmm, this has been an issue since last fall. You're right I was wrong, it's 19 deaths.

Jan 30, 2010 ... Toyota Recall Hits 9 Million Cars Worldwide ... said sudden unintended acceleration in all Toyota vehicles had resulted in 19 deaths in the United States...

The tired old Union (UAW) mentality , buy American , who do you think funds the American Companies ? Take a guess . Japan , China , so buying a Ford , Dodge , GM , the money still goes to a foreign country .
SO does not matter what you buy , you are helping to fund some foreign country somewhere . Buy American , 70% of the parts are foreign , so I guess you can buy 30% of the vehicle then !
Don't get me wrong I like GM , just not the UAW slime that builds them .

can you explain to me how China or Japan, etc fund american companies?
Ford leveraged every asset they had via mortgaging it to save thier company and not take a bailout.. ok maybe they got some of the mortgage money from a Chinese bank( i really have no idea if they did, or what banks they did business with).. but my point is.. Ford saved themselves.. so how are they sending thier money overseas?
GM.. well, they started with a US Government bailout, so thier money goes to the Government of the US since the US OWNS 60 percent of them.
Dodge, is only 80% American. the UAW is a greedy organization that helped destroy GM, Ford, and Dodge\Chysler\Plymouth. And btw, the Mustang , while is may have foreign electronics, is 100% built in America, by Americans, supporting an AMERICAN company. Its always been built in Detroit, and according to Ford, always will be.

bottom line, support the American companies, keep our money here..

I agree, the union is a good thing I guess. But, there are waaaay too many people that take advantage of the system, and ruin everything about it. That's makes me hate the union, and I really wouldn't mind seeing it dissapear.

from what i understand, ford put up everything but their name and logos for collateral to save the company on their own, gotta give them props for doing it on their own, and showing that they have enough pride not to take hand outs, and american tax payers cash, but even with that said i have and will continue to buy gm and nothing else until its 100% forgein, or a new american auto maker starts up and proves them selves (highly unlikely), good post MidwestSS
