Car Recalls

There have been recalls in the last few days from the likes of Toyota and Honda. Are these recalls a mark of responsible manufacturers or a drop in quality standards?

Most recently is the decision by Toyota to recall 138,000 cars in the UK, 7.4 million worldwide, due to a fault electric window switch.This comes just days after Honda announced it would be recalling 77,000 CR-V models in the UK due to a very similar problem.

Earlier this year Nissan also got in on the act with 51,000 Qashqais recalled worldwide for a steering wheel problem, while an issue with a circuit board resulted in 235,000 MINIs having to be recalled.

So, are these the actions of responsible manufacturers or have the standards of quality dropped?
