Get used to it. All of the manufacturers are scare $hitless about the ghost hunt that Toyota had to go through. I can foresee recalls being made because of a loose thread on seat stitching...... 
Speaking of which, they found nothing did they? I mean besides some idiots stacking up the floor mats...
Yea..they found people had the accelerator pushed down instead of the brake at the time of the accidents (that's what the black box said).

Come to think about it, Hyundai is becoming too successful with the Sonata and other latest designs. They even had to move Santa Fe to the new Kia plant in order to get more manufacturing capacity for the increasingly popular Sonata; couldn't keep up with the demand. But guess what, every one more sold Sonata is an unsold "domestic" together with their union and direct government sponsorship. Neither of the latter two are in business to lose money, nor can they make a cheaper and more appealing car for the consumer. So the last resort is a well staged smear campaign. It worked on Toyota, it is bound to work on many other competitors.
Remember a few days ago in another thread it was mentioned CARB decided to not allow hybrids to use HOV lanes any more since at highway speeds those are the same pollutants with maybe slightly better mileage. So they were about to give the privilege to the true electrics alone, thus pushing the hybrid Volt right in a ditch. I said then it is a matter of one phone call to the governator. Whether he got one or not, but today comes the news CARB with a bit of
convincing lobbying has decided to extend HOV use for hybrids of all kinds.
It just goes to show how to "git 'er done" in the corporate states of America and how deeply economical, personal and political interests get interwoven. 2 cents. Over.
