Toyota recall.
 

Toyota have apologised for not spotting the fault which causes loss of control.

They would have noticed it sooner if the Yaris had actually been bought by men. :D

:lol: "The car in front is a Toyota .... he's in front `cos he has NO BRAKES.!!! :shrug: Mike.

For those who are at a loss on this thread....
 

Not a brake problem ;)

The details are here :)

The 'funny' part is the spokesman refers to that "all his friends and family drive Toyotas"... Do all of your friends and family drive Rovers ?

Spin at it's best.......

I dont know why they've suddenly picked on Toyota over a recall, must be a slow news week. All manufacturers dish out safety related recalls but you rarely here about them unless you own one of the cars. I remember the old Xantia hanbrake recall when it was found Xantias were rolling away which was actually proved by government testing to be operator error but Citroen still released a modified handbrake lever to help solve the problem, or there was the Volvo 340 sudden brake master cylinder failure.

What I'm trying to say is just because they've found a problem it doesn't mean they're a bad manufacturer, I've had a Toyota & apart from parts prices it was one of the best cars I've ever owned

Well if you will go around in a ginger car, what can you expect:D:D

Very true that you´re saying. They seem to have flogged Haiti enough and now there aren´t any juicy bits left:o. Remember Volvo having some fantastic new paint program for the cars. Didn´t need the 4 or 5 coats anymore as the paint mix was fantastic. 6 months after the first ones rolled off the line, all the paint started to peal and big rust blisters. Didn´t do their immage much good when huge problems with rust started to happen in the US..... California:eek::zap::D

Ah so that's what it is:p:
I can vaguely remember something about that so must have been longer than a week ago:shrug::D

Anyone like the joke btw? :lol:

Sorry I didnt even notice this was in the humour corner I just started raving like a lunatic:o:getmecoat:

Being a director he probably get them cheep for them :shrug::shrug:

But the potential Prius recall is for brakes (or lack of them)
