Toyota is far from off the hook for its deadly accelerator problems, which has resulted in accidents that have killed dozens of people. Now, federal officials are weighing whether to make all trucks and cars made in the U.S. have brakes that can override gas pedals. http://content.usatoday.com/communities/driveon/post/2010/03/feds-weigh-requiring-brake-devices-on-cars-to-prevent-runaway-acceleration/1
That’s what Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said to Congress on Tuesday.
Right now Washington officials are pinning 52 deaths on Toyota vehicles that suddenly accelerated and crashed. The auto makers has issued 10 million recall notices.
But that’s not what’s most scary now. There are reports that Toyota’s vehicle recall and repairs may not be working. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has received at least seven complaints from people who claim their Toyotas have still suddenly accelerated after having their gas pedals fixed and floor mats replaced by dealerships.
