Like I stated earlier, I have no love loss for Toyota.  I would love to 
see their sales fall.

With that, I do COMMEND them on a broad reaching recall.  With any 
automaker, I would rather see them recall 99% of the vehicles WITHOUT the 
problem then to have them leave 1% of them on the road.

Just remember, we are all on the same roads.  Trying to fix the safety 
issues, even if over reaching, is better than doing less.

Then, with that said, I have no doubt that Toyota is trying to cover up a 
gross negligence issue(s) here.  They are most likely doing this to 
protect themselves down the line when we find out the truth.  (which could 
be that the technologies they put into production weren't properly 
tested.)
