Toyota reported Wednesday more cases of cheating on certification tests for new models required by the Japanese government, on top of those acknowledged earlier.
In the latest report, Toyota Motor Corp. said it failed to carry out proper certification on seven models, including the Camry sedan and RAV 4 sport utility vehicle. The false tests included pedestrian protection, side collisions and steering impact.
No safety problems were associated with the misconduct and people who own Toyota vehicles don’t need to take any action, according to Toyota. Toyota’s overseas production was not affected.
Production of the Corolla Fielder, Corolla Axio and Yaris Cross, all small models for the Japanese market, has been suspended since June 3. It is scheduled to resume in September once the transport ministry confirms they comply with standards.
Nice, at least there is some opportunity cost since the last time.
But no mention of a fine of any size. The listed models have no safety issues according to the investigations that took place - by the company making and selling the product.
What the actual fuck.
Oh, no! We’re so sorry that we got caught!
We promise we’re going to investigate how this could have happened and make sweeping changes, the best in the industry!, to ensure we’re never caught again.
We’re soooorry
Rubs nipples
And how many electrics? None? Goddamnit Toyota you used to be the better of the corporate demons of cars. Get your shit together.
