Saw a commercial for Toyota, where it is claimed that "Electromagnetic Interference" does not induce sudden acceleration. (Which is not saying much of anything)
Then, Mrs. Kristen Tabar--General Manager, Electrical Systems 2, Toyota Technical Center goes on to say that Electronic Throttle Control is used on "virtually every vehicle".
Huh. Seems to me that there are tons of vehicles that do not use it.
(Then the commercial goes on to say how she puts her children in the car, a pathetic argument in both senses of the term...IMO they should have stuck to her ethos as a general manager. The kids argument always feels cheap to me.)
Hey, at least she looks "like an American"...
