Government investigators recently issued a report, stating that onboard electronics played no role in the runaway acceleration of several Toyota cars and SUVs. That still left other potential problems, such as gas pedals getting tangled in floor mats. Last week, the company recalled another 2 million vehicles, pushing the total number of recalls to 10 million. Partha Krishnamurthy of the Bauer College of Business joins Andrew Schneider on this week's "Bauer Business Focus" to talk about how publicity over the recalls has affected the company and its brand.
