Anyone who owns one of the above 2001 or newer should read the LA Times story now on their website. It appears both NHTSA and Toyota did some very fancy juggling to decide no problem existed in seven or eight "runaway investigations"...it relates Toyotas and Lexus run away more often than ALL OTHER MAKES, and that some researchers claim to have evidence of two to four THOUSAND occurrences...

I assume everyone here would immediately throw it into neutral and/or turn off the key, but your wives and kids may not think of it...
