I seriously doubt the gentleman in this Prius had a actual problem -- I think he was put up to this stunt, and if they faked this incident, I would not be surprised. The lawyers smell money, and Toyota is in a weak position, and they will settle for almost any amount of money...
I look at it the other way around. The issue is known and every incident is getting more coverage than usual. But you may be right. Let's wait and see.
