    Toyota apologizes for cheating on vehicle testing https://apnews.com/article/toyota-certification-cheating-japan-automakers-scandal-26585a96df2a32f7d67a4011a0a98772

    The wide-ranging fraudulent testing at Japan's top automaker involved the
    use of inadequate or outdated data in collision tests, and incorrect
    testing of airbag inflation and rear-seat damage in crashes. Engine power
    tests were also found to have been falsified.

    But Toyota can
    not apologize to those people who died when there
    "Anti-lock-brakes" was unable to function properly.

    Imagine turning into your drive-way and speeding to a point where your
    car enters your garage and explodes upon impact?

    Better get a Ford or GMC model
