Sounds like it is a software/sensor issue. All of these cars are drive by wire which means there is no mechanical linkage between the gas pedal and the engine like our cars have.

Brake by wire is coming too.
The new spin is the part(s) came from an American company, so guess who is still going to get blamed?
Which is the exact reason I don't like drive by wire systems. All these movies where the automobiles come to life, drive themselves and try to take over the world couldn't really happen with mechanical user interfaces, but now, ooooh boy, we have anti-lock brakes, electronic steering, and drive-by-wire throttle. Can anyone say Judgement Day, Rise of the Machines. Toyotas have started accelerating by themselves. Didn't they have a truck model T-1000?
Wait...did my car just say, "I'll be back!"?????
:biggrin:
