The reports were posted on the regulator’s Web site. A
Transportation Department spokeswoman, Olivia Alair, said the
agency is looking into the complaints and hasn’t confirmed their
validity.
The complaints were about a 2007 and 2010 Camry, 2009

globally to modify floor mats and accelerator pedals because of
previous complaints.
“We will continue to thoroughly investigate any complaints
involving unintended acceleration,” said Brian Lyons, a Toyota
spokesman.
NHTSA said today that Toyota crashes possibly linked to
unintended acceleration have caused 43 fatal crashes with 52
deaths and 38 injuries. About two-thirds of the incidents have
been reported since Toyota started recalling vehicles last year
for unintended acceleration.

Toyota’s American depositary receipts, each equal to two

York Stock Exchange composite trading. The shares have lost $34
billion in value since Toyota announced a recall on Jan. 21.

真的假的？那位大牛出来证实一下。
这下好了，国内不过是“下坡不超凯美瑞，上坡不跟汉兰德”，也就两款车。到了加拿大，只要见到丰田/lexus的轿车就得让道，太牛了。
