Detroit News, "Toyota said it saved more than $100M in '07 recall"

Toyota Motor Corp. officials bragged last July about avoiding a costly whole-scale recall of sudden acceleration complaints, a document turned over to congressional investigators shows. A limited recall saved the Japanese automaker, whose executives will be grilled by congressional committees starting on Tuesday, more than $100 million, according to the presentation obtained by The Detroit News on Sunday.

The document, an internal presentation from the company's Washington office, raises serious new questions about the company's handling of safety issues. It was among the papers and records turned over to Congress as part of its demand for information on recent recalls and safety actions.
