21 billion Profits, but by many accounts, worse quality and dependability. . . .
This figure makes the issues Toyota is having even harder to swallow. . . .They have the money (obviously), so why the recent issues?

Could these cost-cutting measures be too aggressive? Ringing every penny out of a design, with little/no safety factor for manufacturing variance. . . . . Could it be that these “cost-cutting measures” are the problem?
It just seems odd, record profits and a rise in quality/dependability issues. It seems history does repeat itself. . . .
