TOYOTA: Anyone affected??

[mdsalemi]

Despite the fact that most of my printed news these days is from the WSJ and NYT (Wall Street Journal and New York Times) because the local newspapers have ceased 7 day delivery, I can't go half a day without something bad about Toyota being bantered about.  This morning--Saturday--was no exception.  In fact there was a very large article assigning Toyota's response to legal and cultural issues in Japan:

Has anyone been affected by these recalls?  Has anyone actually experienced any of their problems?

We've been affected with the Toyota problems.  We need to rent a car for my wife while her van is in the body shop ( deer accident ).  Hertz our preferred car rental and the only one we can get a size able discount on has no cars.  They can't even tell us when a car will be available.
