It’s clear that samurai is very cunning and modern people. In general, the culture of Japan is very, very different from our. It is extremely difficult to understand Japan from the European part of the planet. But despite this, in world business there are certain rules that many smart Japanese gentlemen must comply with. To preserve extremely high sales levels, which Toyota is clearly in the first three on the planet.
As you know, Western societies are characterized by an acute and extremely fast reaction to the event. The media there is so omnipotent that any brand can “bury”, even the coolest and most common. There would be a reason. And they will find funds there, and on all sides from small gossip on the street to the sanctions of state bodies.
The problem of Toyota was as follows: there was a defect in the accelerator pedal at this brand, as well as the Lexus. Because of this, 5 people were killed, which is very expensive for the technical malfunction. At the very beginning of the proceedings, Toyota representatives tried to deny the existence of a problem. For this, the famous Japanese brand was severely punished in the United States.
The punishment is monetary and very significant: to pay more than one and a half billion dollars only in the United States. I think that after this no one wants to lie, because the ratings fall strongly, and the cars will still have to repair. T. e. The costs are double, where it was easier to immediately recognize the existence of problems and quickly eliminate them – there would be so many victims.
What is important to us? Unfortunately, in the space of the USSR, there are no such powerful control bodies as in the United States. And steep brands from the world of cars behave similarly – do what they want. Although the mentioned defect is clearly in Toyota cars on our roads. It’s just the point of eliminating our official representatives of the brand do not particularly see. This state of affairs grows most of all.
I am not surprised that the Auto had a defect from Toyota. Everyone who does something is mistaken. It is somewhat unusual that the Japanese lied, although they could understand them – no one suggested that small defects would lead to so many deaths (!). Apparently, people were lost and forgot about the brakes, neutral transmission for the manual transmission, and so on. So be always attentive, even go to a Lexus type.
