Can’t go wrong with Chinese products for this answer– the continued use of paint containing lead on Chinese products, and especially on toys, has been a concern for a while now. Beyond that, there was a pretty extensive bust recently on toothpaste, also from China, which contained a constituent of antifreeze. This is potentially hazardous, even potentially fatal. If China wants to retain their product integrity, like they say, they ultimately will have to solve that within their own country. Anyhoo….

Oh.. that kind of reminds me of the tainted pet food which killed a bunch of pets last year…. and if I’m not mistaken, the ultimate cause was feed containing melamine which came from china.

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?

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.
