There’s a great concern about safety of Toyota cars, in the US and around the globe. The defects that appears are piling up. More and more complaints are coming and lot’s of reported recall are done for different reason. Thus, some come to suspect that there might be a cover up on the main reason for the recall. Some believed that Toyota cars have this faulty electronic system which caused all the problems. We could read that some of the reason why Toyota cars has been recalled are due to sticking accelerator pedal up to power window short circuit problem. The best automotive pcb maybe was not used, but nobody knows for sure the reason behind the problem that plagued Toyota cars.

A news I have read was about unintended acceleration problem as one of the major reason for recalling millions of Toyota cars. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have even decided to investigate the possibility that electromagnetic interference have caused the problem.  Modern cars are in some ways full of electronic system. Pointing to the interference in auto throttle systems as the culprit of unintended acceleration problem might be difficult to prove. I know that Toyota cars have a reputation for technology. So, they might be using the best copper pcb or aluminum pcb to ensure that the electronic circuitry are reliable in all cars.

Toyota has insisted numerous times that the car computer system was not the reason for consumers’ complaints that their cars speed up unexpectedly. Safety advocates and industry analysts continue keep on asking  about the cars’ electronic systems. James Lentz, Toyota Motor Sales president, reiterated in several television appearances and news paper interviews that electronics is not an issue in the recalls. So, there’s nothing to look for like pcb manufacturer to sack due to the failures.

It seems to ring true, as the stuck accelerator pedal for example is a mechanical problem. Mechanical failure is easier and more transparent to diagnose than an electronic problem. The average garage mechanic, might miss out checking the computer micro-processing failures. Service center usually replace the whole defective unit without some serious investigation on the cause. The management, dealers and mechanics have difficulty in diagnosing rare unpredictable failure in their electronics. The average driver does not really know also the exact problem when their cars computer or electronic gadget malfunctions. It’s hard to check wiring failures, damaged circuit boards and programming in modern cars. Thus, proving that Toyota recall as due to faulty electronics and auto computer system failure might be a difficult task.
