The Record of Woodland Park and other mainstream media have had numerous stories about the ongoing recalls of millions of Toyota vehicles, but no one seems to remember the "secret warranties" uncovered by the Center for Auto Safety in Washington, D.C.

My first Toyota was a 1986 Celica.When my air conditioner failed, I obtained a list of hidden Toyota defects from the center and used it to get free repairs at the Toyota dealer after the warranty had expired. Now, I'm waiting for a recall letter on my 2010 Prius (photo).
