I never got a chance to say thank you for the wonderful job you did on my daughter's case. My daughter will be graduating in June from High School with cum laude status.

Just when we thought we would never find someone who would listen to our story, V&B opened their doors to us. For one month, I spoke to 25 lawyers and the answer I received was "your case is a lost case, no one will ever represent you."

Phuong N.
Houston, Texas
I was injured in an auto accident in Houston, and was referred to Vuk by another attorney. I couldn't work as a result of the accident and desperately needed back and knee surgery.. . . Vuk was able to get me a generous settlement within about a year of taking my case.

Steven R.
Deer Park, Texas
After my two-year old son was killed by an 18-wheeler driver and me and my daughter were badly injured, we hired Brian and Vuk to represent us on the recommendation of another lawyer.

This was the hardest time in our lives and it was great knowing we had you there to represent us.

Will the latest Toyota recall lead to more serious auto accidents and fatalities?

There are several burning questions being asked by the families of those killed in unexpected acceleration-related crashes and for the millions of people affected by a series of massive Toyota recalls: when did Toyota know that there was an acceleration problem with their vehicles? Why did they not act sooner? What other problems are out there?

The safety of Toyota vehicles is in question yet again as the automaker just issued yet another recall, which this time affects 2.3 million cars and SUVs. A GM vehicle, the 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe, is also affected by the recall since it was designed and built for GM by Toyota.

This recall, claims Toyota, is different than earlier recalls for floor mat acceleration issues, which affected about 4.3 million vehicles. The current recall is for “sticking throttles”, essentially defective accelerator-pedal assemblies from one of Toyota’s suppliers, CTS. The faulty throttles are from CTS’ facility in Ontario, Canada.

Toyota believes that the throttles stay open because of premature wear and tear on some of the parts. Originally Toyota was going to continue to sell affected vehicles, asserting that they were safe because they had not yet experienced any wear and tear. However, Toyota recently decided to halt sales of recalled vehicles until a fix is made available.

Toyota claims that while they knew last year there was a problem with accelerator-pedal assemblies from CTS, they did not believe that the problem was big enough to warrant a recall. Now, however, the automaker claims to have seen a big increase in reports of problems, so they felt it was time to issue a recall. They do not, however, yet have a fix for the problem. A fix approved by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) could be weeks away.

Some question as to why the floor mat acceleration issue is being treated as a separate problem from the sticking throttle issue. Both can cause a vehicle to speed out of control, and in fact Toyota claims that 1.7 million vehicles are affected by both recalls. Either way the end result is the same – affected Toyota vehicles may accelerate unexpectedly, and not stop when the accelerator is released.

Auto manufacturers who knowingly sell vehicles with defective parts deserve to be held accountable when these defects contribute to serious crashes.
