"In a first, Toyota led the U.S. auto industry in recalled vehicles
this year, thanks to its largest safety-related problem since it began
selling vehicles in the United States.

The Japanese automaker has struggled with the fallout from the recall

linked to fatal crashes."

In contrast, Ford recalled 21,993 in 2009. An all time low excluding
the legacy of the well known brake switch problem. That's less than a
small company like Mitsubishi!

You mean the "short" bus for special people? It is usually a Ford E350.
