Lentz Testimony Makes News

In Congress' first hearing into Toyota safety issues, James Lentz, head of Toyota's US sales operation, told representatives that the fixes now being done on Toyota vehicles may not solve the sudden acceleration problem. He said the company was still researching the matter to see whether there might be other causes, including electronic problems or human error.

The testimony was at times emotional as persons, including Lentz, spoke of car accidents which had touched their lives.
