Default NHTSA witholding documents on Toyota recalls

I'm sure you remember a few months back Toyota being taken to court and raked over the coals for floormats and sticky accellerators.

It has recently come to light that some of these 'accidents' were not accidents at all rather they were attempts at insurance fraud by individuals.

Then today I noticed this nestled way down on the news items.
