I don't buy that. The US has a big interest in the Japanese economy that goes well beyond the auto industry. I think it's just media fear mongering. If you do own a Toyota it's hard to ignore so they're going to milk it for every cent it's worth.

Yeah, but the interests which are pursuing this issue are not the same interests as the "US" in your statement.
