Toyota Motor Corp. president Akio Toyoda apologized on his blog for problems related to the company’s recall of 8.5 million vehicles,
the
Wall Street Journal
reported.
Writing under the handle “Morizo” and updating the blog for the first time since the quality issues occurred, Akio Toyoda said … the company will “take seriously, accept humbly, and respond sincerely to” criticism that it had neglected efforts to listen to customers.
Toyoda, grandson of the company’s founder, also said he decided not to participate in a 24-hour endurance race in Germany. Toyoda, who had raced in the event several times before, had said last June that he planned to continue to participate after he became the company’s chief executive, the
Journal
reported. (Source:
