The FJ is now impounded in the local Toyota dealership's sevice yard awaiting inspection by an "investigator" from "headquarters".
If anyone has experienced, or heard of, an INCIDENT involving collapse of an FJ's suspension, pls email the details to me at theend@knology.net .
I will never be able to ride in an FJ again. If I were bound, gagged, and thrown into one, I would Houdini myself rite out of it...but I wish all other FJ owners the best. I still think the FJ is funky and cool....possibly the funkiest and coolest ever.

Happy to hear that you and your wife only got a good scare but I agree a mechanical failure can happen on any vechicle. That said could you post any news that Toyota offers up as to what exactly failed? I would be very curious to know what they say.
