According to information from the Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, after conducting on-site inspections, the agency discovered abnormalities in the safety testing process of seven vehicle models that Toyota had not previously reported.
On July 5, Toyota announced the results of its internal investigation, confirming that only seven models were affected by the performance test fraud. However, the ministry's investigation results showed that the number was much larger.
Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has discovered new abnormalities in seven vehicle models, in addition to the seven models previously reported by Toyota.
The incident has come as a huge shock to Toyota, which has been hit by a number of scandals in recent years. On June 3, Toyota acknowledged in a preliminary report that seven models had been crash-tested for irregularities, leading to an immediate suspension of deliveries. In addition, some domestic production lines were also suspended to ensure safety and comply with strict regulations.
Not only Toyota, but also its subsidiaries such as Hino Motor, Daihatsu Motor and Toyota Industries Corp. have been administratively fined and forced to correct their fraudulent acts in obtaining government certification. These violations have seriously affected Toyota's reputation, causing significant economic losses and customer confidence.
This scandal not only affects Toyota but also causes anxiety for the Japanese automobile market in general. The Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's strong request to Toyota shows the government 's determination to protect consumer rights and ensure transparency in vehicle safety inspection processes.
With the current complex developments, Toyota's future is facing many challenges. Thoroughly correcting the violations is not only a responsibility but also an opportunity for Toyota to regain the trust of customers and reaffirm its position in the global automobile market.
