When Car Manufacturers Cheat, Should They Be Forgiven?


"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." While this saying usually refers to a cheating partner, we think it's a pretty good way to describe the way many potential Toyota buyers are feeling. Perhaps they owned a Toyota at the time of the recalls; perhaps they are thinking about buying one now. Most likely, they are nervous that another defective part will be discovered - costing them their cars, their health, or even their lives.


Toyota had a reputation for producing some of the safest, most reliable cars on the road. However, owners in Texas soon found that the car they had loved so much was doing something worse than cheating; it was accelerating out of control and putting their lives on the line. This serious defect caused a massive Toyota recall and broke the hearts - and bones - of Toyota drivers across the nation.

Too Little, Too Late?
The car company is now trying to convince the public that they have changed their ways. They are working to not only produce their own safer cars, but to also improve the safety of all vehicles. Their latest attempt centers on their Collaborative Safety Research Center. There, Toyota conducts research that it says will help determine the causes of accidents and reduce accident rates. Although this sounds good, is it enough to win back customers? More importantly, will it actually help prevent accidents? Will it help save lives?

While we want to be optimistic, our Dallas defective car part attorneys have seen auto makers promise the world, only to cheat again, cut corners, and risk the lives of motorists. What about you? Are you ready to trust Toyota, again?

If you or a loved one was injured by a Toyota car defect, it's not too late to get the compensation you deserve. Call 972.774.9800 today for your free consultation.
