Unlike the Toyota, the Audi was an ergonomic issue with the location and size of the brake pedal. The sudden acceleration was found to be drivers pressing hartd on the accelerator when they thought they were pressing the brake pedal.

The Toyota case became notable for the same reason the Audi case became notable. They started off by denying it was happening at all, then tried to blame it all on driver error, and were eventually forced into a recall to fix the problem. Never would have become a problem if Toyota had been proactive, but somewhere along the way to getting bigger than GM, they started acting like GM. In Toyota's case there's also the lingering question of whether the fix actually fixed it?" -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
