Again, irrelevant where Toyota chooses to have their product manufactured. They have their name on the vehicle, and have to be accountable to the consumers. Do you really think the average person gives a rats about where it was put together? They see the name and believe it should be reliable. That is being questioned right now.The bottom line is, MUCH cheaper labor in Mexico, and most likely not as stringent environmental regulations. Not familiar with the Prius issue. The present Tundra fiasco applies to engines manufactured both in Japan and the U.S., so some sort of a machining spec issue?
