Do you think we can expect some great deals on Toyota vehicles after the recall issues are resolved?
Question by Mr. Atoz: Do you think we can expect some great deals on Toyota vehicles after the recall issues are resolved?
One would think that the company would try and offer some major incentives to to boost interest in their products. I doubt many people are looking for a new Toyota now, but over the next year or so will there be some great deals on new models?
Best answer:
Answer by Rapid Fire
Actually; a lot of people are looking for a new Toyota. Not everyone jumped on the Panic Button when a few throttles got stuck.
And, yes, Toyota is currently working on some incentive plans to get consumers back to the brand. Same as every other Major Manufacturer has done after a massive recall.
I would not hesitate to buy a new Toyota if I was in the market for a new car. A faulty gas pedal would be a welcome relief from the problems I’ve had with the electronic steering system in my 2006 Malibu. GM will not admit there’s a problem with it in spite of the fact that every component except the steering wheel has been replaced. At least Toyota admitted fault and is doing something about it.

Kids’ storage racks recalled after death Fri Nov 16, 9:31 AM ET
Some 36,000 Chinese-made children’s storage racks sold at Wal-Mart Stores Inc (WMT.N) in the United States were recalled after a baby was suffocated by an overturned rack, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said on Friday.
The wooden storage rack, manufactured for Irving, Texas-based Jetmax International Ltd, has three levels and nine removable canvas totes, the safety agency said. One model has red, blue, yellow and green canvas totes, and another model has pastel-colored canvas totes.
An 8-month-old boy suffocated after he pulled on a storage rack and it fell over on him, with the top rail landing on his neck, the government agency said.
Wal-Mart sold the storage rack organizers under the brand “Home Trend Kids” from August 2004 through July 2005 for about , the agency said. The product was also sold at Ollie’s stores from July 2006 through June 2007.
Consumers should immediately stop children from using the recalled storage racks and contact Jetmax International to receive a free repair kit that adds stability to the base of the rack, the agency said.
The CPSC posted photographs of the recalled item on its Web site at http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml08/08085.html

Question by Herbert F: legal requirement for parts support after a product is discontinued?
I would like to find out the legal requirement, if any, for companies to support a product with parts after they no longer manufacture the product.
I seem to recall hearing 5 years once, but I’m not having any luck tracking down the info at the moment.

Resilience and Opportunity: Lessons from the US Gulf Coast after Katrina and Rita
Since Katrina and the levee failures devastated New Orleans and the Gulf Coast in 2005, the world has witnessed catastrophic earthquakes in Haiti, China and New Zealand, floods in Pakistan, and the tsunami that struck Japan. Closer to home, tornados destroyed much of Tuscaloosa, Alabama and Joplin, Missouri. These large–scale disasters place new urgency on understanding the lessons learned post–Katrina. Dr. Allison Plyer, editor of “Resilience and Opportunity,” and several contributing scholars introduce this new book from Brookings Institution Press.
