  • Toyota Moving Forward (EVEN WHEN YOU DON"T WANT IT TO)

  • No offense piwright42 but you're comparing 25 year old car!!!! Have you thought about it? Nobody will be restoring/collecting camry/corolla or any other toyota in 25 years from now. You're comparing a rotten engine mount to a faulty electronically controlled throttle, apples to berries. Next time compare something that is less than a decade old lol

  • Its funny it only happened in the litigation happy USA.

  • Funny that! Toyota didnt make the pedal but CTS is did!!

    CTS is American owned and made !!

  • OLD IS BEST..

    2 Metals of the same value will EAT each other...

  • @Kyle1996ish wow lol

  • Nothing what this video is saying. The problem was that the gas pedal would go under the heavy rubber floor mats supplied by Toyota and would hold the pedal down. Nothing wrong with the pedal design and built. Just change your floor mat in your toyota and you are good to go. This pedal is very well build. Weather proof wiring and a very responsive spring that would even snap off Ice if it was freezed.

  • @Batmanshack Amen, the only pedals that stick are when people have 3 floor mats. It is common sense not to put that many mats. All this was is people faking it wanting money from toyota. Notice nobody talks about it anymore? Interesting.

  • Eesh.

    I wouldn't trade by throttle cable for anything.

  • my dodge dart has been having a sticky throttle problem ever since i rebuilt the 318... hmm wierd

  • If the problem's what they're saying it is, couldn't you just stick your toe under the pedal and pull it back up? Or grab it with your hand, as a last resort? Just how stuck could the darn thing be? Throttles have mechanically stuck in the past but people rarely die from it. Toyota's recommendation for how to stop the car if it ever happens seems to me to be sheer nonsense, just as much as their explanation of the problem.
