    It would appear it isn't just Toyota feeling the heat. It's Hondas turn now. Is it just Japanese companies getting the news coverage though?

    BBC News - Honda recalls 410,000 cars in US

    It is odd. Honda has had recalls, one for Honda Fits, 1st Generation, involving the drivers side window switches. A recall on numerous models for over aggresive air bag accuators that could inflate too violently...

    GM has had trouble with Cobalts steering...

    But all you hear about is Toyota?

    I hate to be a conspiracy theorist...but...

    It looks like with first Ford, then GM and now Honda, while all of the media attention is on Toyota, the other manufacturers are going to try to quietly slip in their recalls before the attention turns away from Toyota.
