Tata Motors Eyes Defense Gold Mine
According to the Detroit Free Press, Toyota's recalls and investigations into its sudden acceleration problems have led to an increase in complaints to federal auto safety regulators. The report says that 2,000 complaints of sudden acceleration were received before the recall, but since Jan. 22, another 743 complaints about sudden acceleration and 866 complaints about brakes in the 2010 Prius were received.
Separately, CNW Research has come out with a report showing that Toyota hasn't been displaced from its leading position yet. Its studies say that Ford, Honda(HMC) and Hyundai have become stronger on Toyota-product shopping lists, but haven't displaced the Toyota product from its #1 slot -- and that this means in the short term, Toyota will have to work harder to retain these customers and thwart any inroads by competitors. Honda ADRs are up 0.6% at $33.80. -- Reported by Andrea Tse in New York >>See our new stock quote page. Follow TheStreet.com on Twitter and become a fan on Facebook.TheStreet Premium Services
