Automobile accelerator pedals have historically been mechanical assemblies which link the pedal to the engine throttle by mechanical linkages or a Bowden cable. With the advent of electronic throttle control, accelerator pedals consist of a spring-loaded pedal arm connected to an electronic transducer. This transducer, typically a potentiometer or Hall effect sensor, converts the position of the pedal arm to an electronic signal which is sent to an electronic control unit (ECU).
Six times in the past six years NHTSA has undertaken an exhaustive review of allegations of unintended acceleration on Toyota and Lexus vehicles and six times the agency closed the investigation without finding any electronic engine control system malfunction to be the cause of unintended acceleration.
実例があるの? (スコア:1)
原因がECUだとする根拠が難しいと思うが・・・。
自分はそういう事例をまったく知らない。
自分が知らないだけかもしれないけど・・・。

今世紀では最も有名なリコール騒動だと思うけど。
実情はともかくECUが「疑われた」ことは何度もある。
