Hold On Sandman... the ones with Frame issues are US made..same with the "sudden acceleration" issues.. anything with a VIN beginning with a J, signafying made in Japan, is not affected...
the original Frames were made by Dana, the auto parts manufacturer...to Toyota specs, which is what proved to be faulty, but nonetheless, were US made...
the accelarator solution they are pushing now, is cutting a 1/4 inch of the bottom of the pedal.. but from the people I know with the issue...and seeing it happen firsthand... that is not going to resolve it.

Actually I do agree tho...buy US...even being that most US brands are nowhere near 100% US made...just take a half hour and walk thru the car lots and read the build sheets.....

but...what do I know... I'm a Ford man....
