There are four Toyotas in our immediate family, two Camrys, a 4Runner, and a beloved Previa. Each one is a stellar performer with no hint of "sudden acceleration syndrome" or other safety issues. We had our doubts earlier this year when a rash of claims suddenly hit the news and left Rust Belt congressmen frothing at the opportunity to crucify the competition for their state-owned Government Motors. [I will never own a GM car again.]Now a case in California has left the experts stumped. They cannot replicate the sudden acceleration claim by a Prius driver. Furthermore, the driver seems to be in a bit of a financial pinch, one that could be salved by a fat claim against the world's largest automaker. There's much more to the story. You can read the details here along with the fine commentary of William Katz blogging at Urgent Agenda.[BTW We love our Toyotas]
