I agree with all comments made. However, my understanding of why this lawsuit was started with Toyota was due to the Prius. Drivers would pull into their garage in electric mode and not remember to turn the car off (distracted, I am sure). Later, as the battery ran down, the gasoline engine kicks-in to recharge the battery, and then carbon monoxide poisoning occurs.

Again....not defending a frivolous lawsuit.....but it makes more sense when considering this series of events.
