Sure. One case in which Michael Barr testified against Toyota is the Toyota vs Bookout case in Oklahoma. In that case a split jury that met the legal minimum for an award decided against Toyota. It was notable partly because it came within a week of Toyota winning another unintended acceleration case. We covered the story and reported that Toyota lost the case pointing out it was important because it was the first that Toyota lost that pointed to a problem with the ETCS. In the story, we printed quotes by both the Lawyer for the Bookouts and also a statement by Toyota. Maybe the lawyers for the Bookouts chose not to name Mr. Barr for some reason, but why would they? He was not their only expert witness. We also included a link to another news outlet that went into more detail about the significance of the ETCS. There are gobs of stories on this and if you Google "Michael Barr Toyota" it comes up. Here is the link to the story we ran.

You asked for a couple, so I will include this link, though I am not saying it is from the mainstream media. It appears instead to be a sort of infomercial done by lawyers profiting from suing Toyota. Michael Barr is mentioned on the second page:
