There is a BIG hidden secret in the auto industry...it's
called ELECTRONIC sudden unintended acceleration! I
know...you thought that was just about FLOOR MATS
and sticky pedals, or "driver error," right? That's
certainly what TOYOTA would like you to continue to
believe, BUT DON'T!
These ultra-complex new engines are completely
computer driven. Software is needed to control the
throttle system. You THINK you are giving gas when you
press the accelerator, but you are only SUGGESTING
this to the computer. In electronic SUA cases, the
throttle software may be glitch-prone and NOT do as
you wish.
What happens then? Well, the glitch may (and has for
countless SUA victims) result in an OPEN THROTTLE
situation. The brakes become INEFFECTIVE in these
situations and crashes into storefronts, buildings, and
homes have resulted.
What does the automaker say? They hook the vehicles
up to the computer and declare NOTHING WRONG!
They cite the EDR which has erroneous data and say
YOU were NOT braking. They point the finger at you
based on AGE, GENDER, MEDICAL history, prescription
meds, etc. YOU name it, they've TRIED it!
Get the picture? And you THOUGHT the GM issue was
big? Think again! This cover-up of ELECTRONIC SUA is
scandalous and very well-orchestrated.
Why even a WHISTLEBLOWER has been legally
harassed by Toyota as it does NOT want her Toyota
internal docs posted online anymore. The automaker
wants to intimidate and SILENCE her. It doesn't want
the PUBLIC involved, for goodness sake!
