今天通用自愿召回 130 万辆车，因为有转向问题，有一人受伤。在我的文章里提到"福特主动召回"，结果导致谴责，说我胡说，“召回是美国高速公路管理局决定的，不是车厂自己决定的”。今天的新闻，我把它放到这里。让大家知道，美国三大汽车制造厂历史上的召回基本上是“志愿”的。 害怕导致集体诉讼，血本无归。搞不懂，为何有那么多无知无畏的“出国留学知识分子” 。

General Motors Co. said it is voluntarily recalling 1.3 million compact cars, including the company's popular Chevrolet Cobalt model, because the cars' power steering could fail.

丰田油管出问题了，但不召回，自己去换，免费。

召回与不召回的区别：

召回影响名声。另外，由于每个车主都得到通知，召回就花费高。不召回，很多人未必知道，当然，也有时能得到厂家的通知。

下面是丰田车主需要立刻去敌勒换油管的车型。如果不换，油管暴了，没有了润滑油，发动机可能报废。美国有933，800辆车需要换油管。看看你自己的车是否在内。你不知道，就不会去换，车坏掉了，麻烦。

Toyota to replace oil hose on 933,800 vehicles

Company not issuing recall, says that defect isn' t a safety issue

updated 2:55 p.m. CT, Mon., March. 1, 2010

DETROIT - Toyota Motor Corp will replace an oil hose in some 933,800 vehicles in the United States due to the risk of a potential leak that if left untreated could damage the engine, the automaker said on Monday.

On some Camry, Avalon, Rav4 and Lexus vehicles equipped with V6 engines, the rubber portion of the engine oil hose may develop a small hole, potentially causing oil leakage and engine failure, Toyota said in a document sent out to U.S. dealers and obtained by Reuters on Monday.

Toyota spokesman Brian Lyons confirmed the company had sent the document on a "limited service campaign" to U.S. dealers. He added the oil hose issue is not a safety issue and the vehicles are not being recalled.

Lyons said a leak would likely be noticed by drivers as an oil puddle beneath a vehicle.

The service campaign covers 2007-2010 model year Camry, 2005-2009 Avalon, 2006-2009 Rav4, 2007-2008 Lexus ES 350 and 2007-2009 RX 350 vehicles.

Owners of the vehicles can have the oil hose fixed at Toyota dealerships at no charge under a safety campaign that will run until March 31, 2013.
