    Dont see why the government was giving Toyota so much trouble over the whole gas pedal getting stuck. Just pop it in neutral and turn off the car.

    Now a fire thats serious. Imagine someone's car catching fire while in the garage, I see some major damage.

    Did GM recieve a government bailout? Maybe this is why they're keeping quiet bout the whole thing.

    Good on Ford’s part that they recalled. Was wondering about the insurance cost in case mishap happened!
