Toyota is escaping responsibility for this matter by blaming the vehicle owners. Why are so many emissions-control components failing? Why are so many sludge victims facing a stalled vehicle on major highways and the potential for life-threatening injury? Why is the NHTSA not doing more in this matter?

Toyota and Lexus owners are on their own—but little do they know that no one is following up on the major problems in their vehicles. Toyota can say it is going to send out 3.3 million letters to its customer and then NOT do it! This is what happened in the engine oil sludge case. Far too many Toyota owners report they never received such a promised letter.

John Hanson said from day one that Toyota was “unaware of a single case of engine oil sludge in a properly maintained vehicle.” Hmm….is this just what John Hanson wants us to believe? If so, the truth is that there have been hundreds, no thousands, of this engine failure in the wake of proper vehicle maintenance. But…Toyota doesn't want to acknowledge this OR tell the public this. It is far easier to DENY, DENY, DENY!

When will someone stop Toyota? When will Toyota be called to task for the lies and deception?

Research Toyota Engine Oil Sludge to find more. See the video about it on YouTube. I've been following Toyota's response since late 2000, and the blame directed at the Toyota and Lexus owners is unconscionable! Toyota does not care about the loss of human life, IMO. It cares only about the bottom line. It is only worried about its reputation, which IMO is inflated given the history of air bag, brake, transmission, engine, seat belt, emissions control component failures, etc. When will Toyota stop deceiving the public?
