looking at headlines in LA Times and WSJ, you would think they are recalling gas pedals, not floor mats.
NTHSA just issued a statement that they are looking at possibly fining Toyota for late recall.
Anyone wanna bet this why this happened after Toyota reported 60% worldwide sales increase in first 5 months of 2012? History keeps repeating itself... Ford and GM need more push as their market share is rapidly shrinking...

i think it's time to stop merging all the recalls into one thread. it makes searching and reading very difficult. we did it at the time due to the numerous threads and discussions. this time it's somewhat related, but it's also been a while, so let's start new threads for each recall
