Toyota Death Traps?

You're on the highway. It's a beautiful day outside. You, and your significant other are on a nice drive around a hilly beach cliff. The view is stunning, and you've never felt more alive. You take a deep breath, as the new 2009 Toyota smell fills your lungs. Your favorite song is playing, and love looks at you with all of the love you've had these years you've been together, and suddenly - the car begins to accelerate without cause, and in the moment you are broken from this bliss, your first instinct tells you to hit the brake....AND THERE ARE NO RESULTS!! You realize that you may die, and begin to think of your happy times as you hit the rail and sail off the edge.
You awaken in a hospital, and they tell you that your lover was killed in the crash.
Does this sound like a nightmare?

Well, it happened to Mr. Bulent Ezal , of California. His wife was killed, and Toyota continues to insist that the problem is caused by floor mats. A San Diego CHP officer and his entire family were killed in a Lexus, after it accelerated out of control on a highway.


The government isn't going to let this happen, and they must be getting ready for a massive recall right? Wrong. NSHTA has done nothing in regard to this problem. I suppose we'll have to wait until someone decides that enough innocent people have died in senseless accidents, due to a company's inability to take responsibility for it's mistakes. Instead of recalling the cars for what the obvious problem really is, they decide to waste 40 billion yen (454.08 million in U.S. dollars) in a bullshit attempt to save face.


FLOOR MATS? COME ON PEOPLE.

Of course, for all we know, this could be one of those World Terrorism Organizations threatening our freedom like Cobra, or maybe it's an Illuminati scheme to make us all "Ford Tough". Worst case scenario it's the machines striking back at us for all of the crash tests, or aliens like in Maximum Overdrive.
