Toyota recalling 3,800,000 cars: I thought they were perfect
by eeee - 9/29/09 2:07 PMSo how many other defects is Toyota not sharing with the world? I thought their cars were perfect and thos hippie dippie Prius commercials would lead us to believe that driving one would solve world stife, poverty, disease, and hunger while converting the earth into a Peter Max existence.
So now they are recalling 3.8 MILLION cars because the gas pedal could get jammed and the drivers could run over children and old people at stop lights?
How could they ruin that up so badly?
Something is not right and they need to be clear with us.
You are retarded

This recall is not that big of a problem, get plasitic floor mats or secure your fatass from kicking the floor mats so high to where they jam the gas pedal.
Retarded Indeed

They come with plastic clips that clip into the carpet floor and hook onto the floor mat to prevent the floor mat from moving around. The retards that had the floor mat stuck underneath the gas peddle probably didn't have these clips. This could happen to any make and model depending on how retarded the driver is. Don't blame the automaker, blame the driver. Also Toyota's aren't perfect, ALL cars break.
Apparently you didn't hear about...

You can lay blame on the consumer all you want, but it's clear to me where the blame for the screw-up in this lies, and it's NOT with the end user. Nissan's been using hooks with their floor mats since at least the late '80s (at least in my old Maxima). VW's had some sort of floor mat retaining system in at least some of their cars since the mid 90s. So why didn't Toyota get the memo?
