NASA to Probe Toyota Acceleration Problems
Friday, September 24th, 2010
Even NASA Is Involved in Toyota Crisis US regulators on Tuesday announced a broad investigation into automotive computer systems and software, which have come under scrutiny because of sudden acceleration and other reports involving some Toyota Motor Corp. cars. An examination of Toyota’s problems will be conducted by experts from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, while the National Academy of Sciences, which advises the government, will undertake a separate, 15-month study into the use of computer technology in cars, US Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said. Toyota has said there is no evidence that software or electronic systems are responsible for sudden acceleration in its cars. The company “repeatedly and rigorously” tests its software and has subjected it to outside review, a spokesman said. online.wsj.com tags NASA Toyota Recall Investigation Defects Throttle Control

Buy American in fact stop buying those money pits they are putting these electronics in to take mechanics off the street and make you bring those money pits to the dealers. Don’t buy new cars buy used they are better than these new pieces of crap.
In the 70′s the price of a new car was less than 10 thousand dollars
