For many years Toyota was known as a manufacturer of high-quality vehicles, but the recent events ruined it like a house of cards. While the automaker is losing reputation, sales and money, others are trying to gain on it as much as possible: the three big American manufacturers are offering good deals for those who want to give up their Toyotas.

Many experts recommend the owners of the recalled Toyota vehicles not to rush with giving up the autos. The best solution would be to take the car to a dealership and have the accelerator pedal fixed. After the problem is fixed, the vehicle becomes as good as new. Besides, any autos in recall lose their value and would be traded in for a very low price.

However, if the owner is unhappy and is ready for a change, this is what the Detroit Big Three are offering:

• General Motors gives an incentive to any Toyota owner, who is ready to buy or lease a Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, or GMC vehicle. The incentives vary: it can be zero-percent financing for 60 months, $1,000 cash back on the purchase, or three free lease payments for up to $1,000.
• Ford also offers cash back on a purchase for anybody who trades in a 1995 or newer model of Acura, Honda, Lexus, Toyota, or Scion for a Ford, Lincoln, or Mercury auto.
• Chrysler gives $1,000 cash back for Toyota, Tacoma, Tundra, and Sienna if the person trades them in for Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, or Jeep vehicles. Lease discounts are also available.
All offers are good throughout the end of the month and can be combined with other incentives offered by the manufacturers.
