ChadTower:
Lack of cpu control over the brakes?

From the article:

When you apply the brakes it automatically cuts off the cruise control.
This is the 'switch' that's being referred to.
It's more of a pressure switch than anything....apply brakes, fluid pressure activates switch, switch shuts off cruise control.

How are you going to blame Mexico or foreign cars for this?

Stuff happens. Toyota is having a huge recall for floor mats, and the design has actually resulted in a couple of deaths. What could be easier to design than a secured floor mat?
Ed_McCarron:
Wow. What an epitaph.
"Floored by a floormat."
ChadTower:
I think that recall actually includes my truck. I like my floormats!
