"Did Toyota gain market share by shortcuts on safety, by trying to minimize expenses that were to be made to make sure that everything was operating appropriately?"

"Toyota became the number one car company in the world because of its relentless, marketed reputation for safety."

"It's my hope that Toyota will start to address this crisis fully and forthrightly so that Americans will have the confidence that they're safe when they get behind the wheel of a Toyota."

"Is anyone at Toyota responsible--been made responsible for this presentation or related safety lapses at Toyota--been reprimanded for their lapse?"
