I can remember the public and political uproar when Audi came up with their fix and it was approved by the proper agencies, there was outrage that Audi was getting away with murder!! But guess what, that shift interlock they developed and is now standard on all automatic cars fixed the problem, by preventing driver ineptness.

Hey Pfog... I heard this from the news..NBC?. There was one accident in which 3 people were killed. Recalls don`t bother me too much because most of them are insignificant and they happen to all brands. But this is huge. I would hate to be sitting at a red light, first to go, with my family in the car and it jumps out in front of a semi. Toyoata is a great company with a lot of happy customers....and they make a lot of cars here in the US....so I like them and wish they well.
