that is a shame. First the Camry Hybrid's brakes and now this. Thankfully Toyota's are soooo reliable.

What is wrong with the brakes?

I wish we'd follow the US in terms of being lax with fire retardants. They're toxic chemicals that do way more harm than good. In Canada so much of our stuff is soaked in it. Ugh.

Baby clothes are the worst. Heaven forbid we don't set our kids on fire.

Pillows would be second. Fires caused by high fevers must've been a big problem.  ::)

Bring out the people with a burning desire to extinguish Toyota. I'd be shocked if this didn't become a hot topic.

seems pretty dumb... as people said though, rules are rules... even if they are stupid ones.

good work kaz... two puns in a one line response!

A bit of pun is good for the soul.  ;D

the letter send out by Toyota was silly...  One part not compliance but the whole seat does...
I just got my recall letter from Toyota last month that they need to put extra shield on my 13 Venza as there is chance for water damage to srs module.  They tell me in the letter that the air bag may deploy during normal driving.  But the parts is not yet available and I have to wait for their 2nd letter....  :fall:
 I was waiting for it to deploy anytime and sue them for big  ....
