That is rediculous. Call Ford back. And find a dealer that is not chummy with the original dealer.

On Yahoo today. Umm hmm . . . http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_runaway_prius This one has an Edmunds rep in the video. http://news.yahoo.com/video/tech-15749651/18615478

Keep the tank full, muffles the sound.

As with all car warranties, once it is up it is up. Except the heater coil issue that they extended the warranty for in lieu of repairing all of them right now.

That is a good article. One question I have is why the police officer in the Lexus did not know what to do? It is unfortunate and somewhat explains why untrained civilians do not know what to do. And their test results are interesting. It is almost as if when the Toyota accelerates on it's own the brakes become useless, but under controlled conditions with a properly working vehicle the brakes do override the throttle.

That second one in NY is titled "I can't trade it in so I am going to pay my likely unlicensed servant to accidentally total it".

And a tiny part of me wonders if it is a hoax of some kind . . .

2008 and no. Unless it is happening at the moment they won't fix it. Getting a loaner when I had the seals replaced last week proved to be exhausting so the less I have it in the better. If it breaks then in it goes. I have not ruled out humming from the speakers or some other part of the audio/sync.

Not to mention doing it at 95 mph. Hope he was using his bluetooth. As mentioned before in this post, reality is that people that can think like that in a situation like that are few and far between. Hopefully enough of these articles will educate poeple on how to stop a runaway car.

Tell everyone it's supercharged. I have noticed the same thing at times, not sure what it is.

That is pretty raw to charge for 'rertrieving' the code.

Nice. That makes me very happy. One less thing to worry about. As always, thanks for the reply.

Wow, that's neat. I will definitely check that one out. It gets cold rolling down the window to use the mirror. As I see you safely driving and browsing the web with your rear wiper and mirrors.

And all this time I thought the mirrors were so I could check my makeup. Silly me. I wondered why they are on BOTH sides.

Snowbrush. And if you know the secret to avoiding being hit from behind please let us know. I guess the guy that hit me did not see the rear wiper or things might have been different.

I don't not get it, I don't see it. Cars don't have them. The wiper covers such a small area it does not do much good. Just my opinion after driving suvs with the wipers for years.

I dropped it at about 10 am and they called at 3:30 that it was done. When you go get it in early and confirm that they will be able to fit it in that day. I was told it is a 2-3 hour repair.

First, thank you for the huge laughs. I am dying right now, tears in my eyes. I am surprised no one has added the lady silhouettes like you see on semi mudflaps, etc. I will regret saying that for sure.

Still not seeing it.

Really?! What did I win. Ha ha. I have to correct myself. I meant parking brake, not emergency brake in my story. TA did not have a parking brake. Pulled the release lever and used the parking brake to slow down and stop. Sorry. My brain was is other places yesterday doing other things.

A safe way to decorate and make a statement is with window decals. They come off and don't ruin your paint. Don't go with the Smokey and the Bandit look.

All fixed.

Agreed, if the person can think that fast. It is scary how many would stare blankly out the windshield and see what happens. When I had my old Trans Am I lost the brakes coming up on a red light doing 50 mph. Thankfully no one with the green lite had made it into the intersection. I put it in neutral and used the emergency brake to stop. Dads, teach your new drivers that. Mine did thank goodness.
