Yoshi Inaba sounds like a clairvoyant. ;) I wonder if there will be charges and arrests in the Toyota case as the Japanese government did in the Mitsubishi case.
"For years, warning signs have clashed with its touted high standards
Five years ago, Yoshi Inaba, then president of Toyota Motor Corp.'s U.S. sales operations, disclosed his biggest fear. It was that someday, some flaw in Toyota vehicles might go undetected and cause injuries, or worse, to the company's customers.
Inaba was perhaps thinking of a huge scandal that had just engulfed Mitsubishi Motors Corp., a smaller Japanese carmaker accused of covering up defects for years. Top Mitsubishi executives, including its former president, had been arrested and charged."
