im not suprised at the turn of events,when you you have two companys like boeing and airbus fighting over who's gona come out with the greatest ,the longest ,the fastest bla bla bla , how about the best built how ever long it takes ,car companys can afford to have burps , your on the ground ,not airplanes !! measure twice cut once rush rush rush lets get that thing in the air.
nobody can afford to have burps... such as toyota a few years ago and their accelerator problems... at least nobody has died on a dreamliner.
You are correct when you say "Not yet", they are the key words. How many Toyota’s were there on the road; How many hours of driving did Toyota's have on the road; How many miles were drive before something occurred.
The truth is you cannot in actual fact compare motor vehicles and aircraft due to the environment they operate in. But using your analogy, the Deamliner has essentially no time in service and their only a hand full of aircraft in actual commercial service compared to the thousands of Toyotas; nevertheless Dreamliner [Nightmare Liner] is failing on delivery, as well as during testing.
Consequently, using your analogy, statistically the Dreamliner risk of causing a catastrophic accident with the capability to kill hundreds of people in one instance is far greater.
We really need to put patriotism aside and look at the real facts and figures.

What did you think he was gonna say, buy an Airbus?
Full refund guaranteed, no questions asked, but he didn´t (LOL!!!)
Boeing doesn't give refunds, concessions maybe...
When the nacelles of the P&W engines of my very own private 747 started to stretch in and out back in 1971 and the shape remained out of concentricity I told them off, sent her back to Seattle and demanded full refund, which they complied with in a heartbeat. With that money I purchased a nice 1947 Ercoupe whose nacelle or cowling actually never game me any problems (LOL!!!)
