| Description of the problem | I just sent the following email to toyota. I hope that nhtsa can follow up as this is very concerning: i was horrified by the spanish speaking toyota tundra commercial i just saw. It is inconceivable that toyota would have a commercial showing little children crawling under a car to try to get a ball out from under it. Children shlould never go under a car, whether it is moving or not. They can't tell the difference! This is absolutely shameful. Toyota should immediately pull this commercial. Please do not be responsible for the death or serious injury of a child or children who crawl under a car after seeing this commercial.*ak |
