Toyota Faces at Least 29 Lawsuits Over Acceleration

Bloomberg:  “Toyota Motor Corp., the world’s largest automaker, faces at least 29 lawsuits filed on behalf of customers in the U.S. and Canada seeking a range of damages from loss of cars’ value to a return of profits.  The class-action suits, in U.S. state and federal courts and Canadian provinces, demand compensation for flaws including those disclosed in Toyota’s recalls over sudden acceleration of its vehicles. More than half the cases go beyond the floor mats and pedals cited by the company.”
