not a toyota buyer now.... — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 00:07:02 +0000

Well….I was looking at buying a toyota but now I have no plans to, and now I need to convince my parents who have had 4 “safe for now” vehicles…I wont stand by and let Toyota kill my family…They need to fix the problem and start realizing that the very people who have made their billions are the very people that are buying their own coffin.

That is a wise decision and further -the H1N1 vaccine would not save you from any flu including the virus, your better off taking Vitamin D, Vitamin C, garlic capsules and chicken soup. The damage and risk of taking an experimental vaccine are too high and the damage is incredible.
Thanks for your comments.

We have heard enough of the ” driver error” discussions but the main reason Toyota is getting so much attention is that they have not found the defects in their vehicles. The fact is that they cannot blame the computer problems on the driver and the company itself sets out the specifications for parts built by their suppliers as does every car manufacturer. You may remember in the year 2000 Ford had massive problems with the Explorer and their specifications for the Firestone tires built for their vehicles to their specifications.

Just as an example here are some comments from RAV4 owners who had transmission problems with their cars which turned out to be a EMC problem. When they took their vehicles to a Toyota dealership, they were told they needed new transmissions and in some cases new computers to the tune of $4,000.00 to $ 5,000.00. However in a “internal bulletin” released in 2006, it appears that Toyota knew about the EMC problem also yet did no recalls or repairs.

In 2002 when the acceleration problem first occurred Toyota had just revised their vehicle electronic computers and this is where they should start looking for defects. We are still waiting for Toyota to tell us what changes they made to their on board computers, what specifications they gave to their suppliers, where the computers were made, and by whom and also what changes they made from the computers prior to 2002 and after 2002 for comparison. Then we can find the problems, only after acknowledgment from Toyota that there is a problem still inherent in their vehicles even after the recalls were completed.

Safe? That’s an opinion that anyone if free to form for him- or herself. I’m just stating the facts…that’s all. On a personal level, I feel 100% safe in my own vehicle, which happens to be a Toyota. As far as I’m concerned, the jury is still out as far as this being a legitimate problem or driver error (or a combination of each). Audi went through a very similar ordeal in the 80’s and it almost put them out of business. But when it was all over, nobody ever uncovered a shread of evidence that there was a problem with the Audi vehicles. Keep that in mind when you think about this whole Toyota fiasco. The media hype is getting ridiculous now. And I just read a document that claimed Ford has had more unintended accleration complaints during the last 12 months than Toyota, so why isn’t the medial all over them as well? You really have to look at the big picture instead of jumping on the bandwagon.

R.G. Bateman, most new cars (including Toyotas) do not rely on vacuum assist to aid in braking power. In fact, most of them don’t even have the brake booster behind the master cylinder reservoir any longer. That’s because these modern vehicles use an electrical pump to provide power braking assist. But even older cars that do rely on vacuum will still allow 4 or 5 solid pumps of the brakes before the brake booster is depleted of vacuum, so the driver will still have 100% power brake assist even under full throttle. That’s why they tell you NOT to pump the brakes under that type of circumstance. It is also important to note that power braking assist is great, but even without it, you still have 100% of your braking force…you just have to push the pedal harder than normal.

Credit unions are all about the community and giving back to their member owners. They are owned by the people and for the people… not just an elite few shareholders.

There is a great video contest in the voting stages right now to complement the Move Your Money campaign and show the power of credit unions and people helping people.

That is quite the list -the information is out there -we wonder if people are really listening to the truth or believing the corporate interests running the US government.

This is for RD(November 15, 2009 at 8:24 pm)who insists that brakes will stop any speed. Most of the braking power
is from Vacuum Assist. Vacuum is abundant upon deceleration, but not while accelerating, which is the problem (sudden unintended acceleration) SUA.
No vacuum, no vacuum assist, no vacuum assisted brakes.
