The prevalence of Toyota trucks in the armory of ISIS has raised concerns in the US Treasury.

Recent reports reveal that the authorities have launched an inquiry into the matter and are consulting with Toyota on the matter.

The car manufacturer recently released a statement about the issue, revealing that it was helping the government track down the international supply chain in the Middle East, and how these cars are being made available to the terrorist organization. The spokesman of Toyota, Ed Lewis, spoke to CNN about the inquiry revealing that the were "committed to complying fully with the laws and regulations of each country or region where we operate and require our dealers and distributors to do the same. We are supporting the U.S. Treasury Department's broader inquiry into international supply chains and the flow of capital and goods in the Middle East."

Lewis added that while the US Treasury says laws are place to protect against such exports and and supply chain glitches, such misappropriation was not always within the company's control.

"Toyota has a strict policy to not sell vehicles to potential purchasers who may use or modify them for paramilitary or terrorist activities, and we have procedures and contractual commitments in place to help prevent our products from being diverted for unauthorized military use," he said.

Lewis also told CNN that Toyota was not the only corporation being targetted in this inquiry, as there were a bunch of other companies that fall into the supply chain specific to the ISIS.

"Our understanding is that Treasury has been conducting a broad review of supply chains and the flow of goods into the Middle East, including financial institutions, manufacturers and energy companies," he added.
