Some of the Japanese brands are having safety issues at this moment in time.
I listed two concerns that are happening with millions of vehicles.

Not good, especially the sticking accelerator one - which is an odd problem that seems to hang over Toyota cars doesn't it? It used to be the mats, not it's the actual accelerator pedal!

There still having trouble with the mats too reading the 2nd link Ian's put up? You'd have thought they would've sorted that problem by now??

Some of these companies keep getting the same old problems.
You would think they would learn..

Even having the mats made with a Velcro strip or a type of grip tape, would help the slip problems, but you'd think they would fit the mat hooks as standard after all the problems they have had in the past with them? :Chair:
Its quite surprising really for Toyota from what i've seen, I worked for a quality team at the Burnaston Toyota plant for a bit and they were always very hot on the quality side of things there? :Chair:
