    [​IMG] Toyota has discovered a problem with material used in its heated seats and is suspending sales of some models in the U.S.


    (CNNMoney)
    Toyota has stopped selling some of its most popular cars in the U.S., including certain Camry and Corolla models, after discovering the heated seats weren't as flame resistant as required.

    The company said some materials used in the seats didn't meet regulatory standards for flammability, and it has halted sales while it tries to fix the problem.

    Some 36,000 cars at dealerships are affected by the temporary sales ban. That's about 13% of Toyota cars at U.S. dealers.
    In a statement, Toyota (TM) said the material didn't "retard flame" at the necessary rate required by U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
    In addition to halting the sale of certain Camrys and Corollas with seat heaters, other models such as the Avalon, Sienna, Tacoma and Tundra are affected.
    Related: Toyota is still world's largest automaker
    Toyota -- the world's largest automaker -- said it is still counting how many of the affected vehicles were sold in the U.S.
    It is hoping to avoid a recall, arguing that the fault is not a motor vehicle safety issue.
    The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said it would consider Toyota's petition to avoid a recall.
    It's unclear when sales will resume.
    "We're assembling some parts now, and will start remedying vehicles in dealer lots in the near future," said Toyota spokesman Brian Lyons.========So if your ass catches on fire on the interstate at 75 mph its not motor vehicle safety issue,,:eek::rofl:

    I have a few mods
    alrighty then, got my rear drums fixed, a buddy I work with helped me get the back right drum tightened up, or loosened, however you view it, the shoes now do their job. So now my brakes and parking brake work perfectly like they are supposed to now

    I happened to notice that my Shoe hold down pin was not flush and ended up taking the wheel and my spacer off to get my drum cover off and my shoe hold down spring and spring cup had somehow come apart, so we spent like an hour and a half trying to get the spring and spring cup back on without an SST tool....what a pain that was, my buddy finally managed to get in and went for a test drive and everything works fine now. Im glad that I happened just to poke my head over into the BL drum and see that the pin came loose, dont know what would have happened if I didnt see that. but thanks for the help though Jason, everything is good as new
