    i can partially see why they are suing, they are basically pissed toyota lied for so long and made it seem like nothing is wrong with thier cars. So when the shit hit the fan and stock dropped like stephen hawking in water......they lost everything

    The company also faces a series of wrongful death and injury lawsuits from crashes linked to accelerator problems.

    Ohh what a feeling ,Toyota !!

    was looking for the clip from the Hudsucker Proxy where the guy jumped into the window to break it and commit suicide but just hit it and slid down ...

    I could've sworn it was around 6 months ago maybe 8 at most. I remember being back in PA when that CHP officer took out himself and family. The zip ties and or removal started after that

    Hooks to hold the mats in place if they are missing. Aftermarket slush mats are removed and placed in the trunk. The mats must be factory

    Weren't they telling owners to remove all floor mats in the beginning? Not with the recall you do but back when this mess first came about

    Thats a good question. I can confirm though that the perception of the customer is that their cars have tons of shit wrong with them now though. We get tons of bs complaints that stem from paranoia.

    I think they're stalling and may need to replace whole electronics systems. In that case they are bent over with no lube

    I trade stocks and watch Toyota (TM).

    This suit has no merit whatsoever.

    The stock only declined from 90 to 70, and has since made people like me money from here out as it climbs back. Its not like they left their shareholders holding the bag like GM. Bankruptcy!!

    You want to see a stock fail? Try Medivation Inc (MDVN). They have no revenue, and were banking everything on drug they were working on to slow Alzheimer's disease. The preliminary tests failed.

    Why is a stock with NO REVENUE even allowed to trade based on a drug development idea? Wall Street is a shrewd place. This Toyota deal?

    MDVN just a few weeks ago:

    I doubt it. Their stock has risen from 73 to 81 since the president of Toyota met with Congress.
