Wrong. The problem dates far sooner than CTS Corp was even involved, and they don't make the Lexus pedal:

CTS Corporation, the American manufacturer of the electronic accelerator pedals that Toyota claims is at fault, has announced that:

The problem of sudden unintended acceleration has been reported to have existed in some Lexus vehicles and Toyota vehicles going back to 1999, when CTS did not even make this product for any customer, CTS believes that the rare slow return pedal phenomenon, which may occur in extreme environmental conditions, should absolutely not be linked with any sudden unintended acceleration incidents. CTS is also not aware of any accidents and injuries caused by the rare slow return pedal condition, to the best of its knowledge. CTS wishes to clarify that it does not, and has never made, any accelerator pedals for Lexus vehicles and that CTS also has no accelerator pedals in Toyota vehicles prior to model year 2005.[48]

There was over 100 recalls on the first year camaro or was that the challenger oh I do not know they all look the same. GM still is a bad company in my book.

Recalls are fine, but some of them on the Camaro should have been discovered during the R&D phase. I mean, who knew that a cable rubbing ON the starter could cause a problem? That's not rocket surgery.

Yeah, when I was in the market I just couldn't believe the lack of polish on the Camaro. I really wanted to like it too.

That's GM. Though they have been getting better.

Agreed, actually I joined Camaro5 the same time as this site. I think I have about 100 posts over there.

Really? I was a member there for a while when I was deciding between the maro and the Z, and it was a good site back then. (Circa, 7 months ago)

Toyota knew about these safety hazards months before the accidents occured!
