You can always look at this site or do a google search first, that's how some of us support U.S. manufactured goods.

No cameras,no stereo gear and no Televisions.


And BTW-the company that supplied the electronic throttle asseblies that are sticking on the Toyotas are MADE BY A US COMPANY.

CTS of Elkhart, Indiana is this US company, but they're making them to Toyota's engineering specs.

I have no clue what's defective at the moment. I heard software, floor mats and the thingee made by CTS. Something is bad, no disagreement there, but what?

I can help you out with the receiver, Sunfire or McIntosh. The japs got 'nuttin on Bob Carver. The McIntosh will give at least 30yrs. service.

If you think the Japanese are immune to the same arrogance and indifference to the customer that plaged the US corps. take a good look at Japan Airways and Sony. (among others)

I've seen the problem with the defective gas pedal, it's a design problem. The concept of the friction block is wreckless and stupid. It's only purpose was for "feel", a stiffer or extra return spring would have worked better. Never, ever, ever delay throttle closure.
