Much of that worship stems from Toyota's lack of recalls for decades. Toyota, IIRC, did not have a recall until recently. There were TSB's which are extremely common in the automotive world but until the last 6 years or so they never had an actual recall.Exactly. That's what I've been saying for years; that Toyota has its problems just like every other automaker, and when they get widespread enough, they fix them, just like every other automaker.
What has been annoying is how people were worshiping Toyota as the perfect automaker who could do nothing wrong. You knew that couldn't last for long before someone got disapointed. Every company, including Toyota, makes mistakes from time to time.
I think you may have a valid concern here. That's the last thing our economy needs right now.
I hate to point out that the problems started when they moved production here AND made a heavy focus on North American suppliers.
